Happy Birthday, Oreoluwa!

Decades ago, a beautiful angel was sent down to Earth to mingle among humans. This angel is one of God’s special gift. An angel of immeasurable confidence, gargantuan social skills, divine intelligence, and unspeakable beauty.

When this angel came to be a human. She retained all her heavenly qualities and added more. The imperfections of the human skin made her perfect. Oh! And can she disturb.

Oh.. This piece is not only about how she’s perfect. It’s also about how much of a troublesome fellow she is. Oyinloluwa. The honeyed daughter of the Soyoye Clan.

Oreoluwa. The loving wife of the Akiode Clan. This is your day. Your moment of immense breakthrough is finally here.

I rejoice with you today, tomorrow, and forever!

Happy birthday to you my dear friend. You’re loved as much as a human can love.

Adios

Everything has an end,
Even the word “beginning” ended.
The journey has been eventful,
Catastrophic but eventful!

Loved and lost.
Grew up after being young for a while,
Made money after losing money!
Lived a life some would envy.

But this is a new crossroad!
And I might not make it beyond tomorrow.
Remember me for who I was,
Not what I could be.
Remember me for my achievements,
Not what I could have achieved!

Adios amigos,
Death might not be the end we all thought!
But this goodbye isn’t death,
This is the end of something,
And maybe the beginning of new.
Adios amigos.

The Prodigal

Things change
Feelings change,
And people change too.
Never for once did my affection changed course.
Even with the weight of absolute love,
I sunk deep in the sea of betrayal.
I fell into the pit of irreparable damage,
And deeper into despair than ever before.

The pain I dispatched was enough to go round,
And many more attached to my soul, mind and existence.
I opened a wound you would rather close,
I tread a path you have always avoided,
I brought up pain you thought buried.

For these and many more,
I regretted.
For the pain,
The unexpected betrayal,
The unbelievable anger and perceived hatred.
Sincerely, I’m sorry.
And like a prodigal son,
Please, take me back!

Make me understand you

Groceries list is not complicated,
Rocket science is simple for some,
But understanding you is complex,
Much like string theory.

Complicated situations dampened the spark,
The spark was rekindled,
Then the heaven opened,
Life turns sour and cold hardened my heart.

The situation turned complex,
In times like this,
Communication is key,
Comprehendre?

Nourishment

Funny how life goes,
Trees seek sunlight,
Animals seek nutrients
But when it comes to you
I need no sunlight and nutrients
You are all the nutrients I need to prosper
The solution to all my problems,
The answer to all my questions,
The hotspot to my wifi connection,

Unexpected circumstances arose,
Now you’re turning the sunlight to darkness,
The Hydrochloric Acid to my ulcer.

Hey Sunshine,
Shine your love on me.

Letter From a Man in Love

This feeling of completeness and joy i feel anytime I talk to you can’t be explained in words.
Actions they say speak volumes.
Because words can be misleading.
I love you as far as the eye can see and far beyond.
I love you as far as the ear can hear and far beyond
Saying it won’t make it more real
And hiding it won’t make it less real.
I love you so much baby

Miserable

I just want it all to end.
I am miserable.
I just want this to end,
I am empty.

I’m am neither happy nor sad,
Neither good nor bad,
Neither concerned nor nonchalant,
I just want to feel alive again.

Feel alive for a long period,
Not just an hour,
Or a day,
I want to feel alive for a long time.

Loving and Losing

Hot tears streaked down my cheeks. The rivulets of water soaked my beards till they can’t hold anymore. I took a mirror and looked at my face for a very long time. All I saw was sorrow, emptiness, and a boy just trying to exist.

And for a very long time I’ve been managing. But I don’t think I can continue like this. I don’t want this to continue. I wish it would all end.

Yes, I was deeply in love. Yes, she was the best thing that happened to me in a long time.

Yes, she wants me to let go. Yes, I want her to be happy. So, the fact that I want it to end, I’ll never tell her.

Yes. Life goes on. But can I keep up?

Hey Beautiful

So many words rhyme with “my partner”
But my favourite is “together forever”
You’re a walking work of art,
I’m not just referring to your tattoos.
You’re like what Michelangelo will sculpt,
Only much better.
More unique
And especially classy!

Hey Sunshine!
Your beauty is limited to your physique,
But also your charming persona.
Your heart isn’t just a lump of muscle,
I want it to be my home,
A place to reside in forever.
My love for you isn’t just emotions,
But a way of life.

Dreams sometimes becomes reality,
And you make all dreams come alive.
So, cute wonderful lady,
Accept this humble poem as a token of affection.

Saying it won’t make it more real
And hiding it won’t make it less real.
I love you so much baby
