Verse

I cry a little
each daybreak,
but it's never
out of sorrow.
It's because
I see you,
unmasked,
and I'm always
grateful
to the morning sun.
It illuminates
and kisses
your face
with its bright rays.
Your naked face,
a work of art;
the first thing
I see
as I'm rising
at dawn.
A beautiful face,
always smiling
back at me.

Her tears trickle deep
Within her flooded soul
While the drops change red as her only console
She wants what she cannot have
And all that she has is time
This she will never know
For now, the shortest reach to peace
exists in her longest dreams
So she presses her lashes against her pillow tight
and dreams for hours her sorrow out of the night
As her eyes flutter she is not alone
But she'll never discover the others just like her
For change comes too slow

To feel the black rain
To walk on black earth
To see the black sky
To know the black's good
To listen to the silence
To hear sorrow cry
To see past the reflection
To view through the minds eye
To feel the cold burn
To listen to time turn
To listen to your heart beat
To promise then to break
Who can promise and stand tall?
Who can pledge and mean all?
Who can commit to give all?
Men are weak, men are small
But mankind could be strong and so beautiful
If it meant
we are all

There’s
That silent
Something
Listen
You can’t
Hear
Always
Near
It whispers
Next to
Sweet sound
Tears
There’s
No echo
Always
Gone with
Brought to
Naught
With all night
Silence sought
Loud
As further
Than the
Here is hollow
Wonder why
Your willing
No space between
The years
There’s that
Silent sorrow
Shadowed though
With tears
No and then
You see me
There’s a
Path don’t
Follow
Listen not
Then dream
There’s that s
Silent something
With echoes
In between

Where would you be without love?
Where would you be without light?
Drifting along on a wave of tranquility.
Happiness bought with a smile?
What happens to love as it burns?
The sun kissed path seems long but can you
see where it turns into the night?
Can you feel the flame weakens in life’s winds?
Do you stop to protect the heat in your life?
Years come and go as the world turns
Days of fun and sorrow always lead to the night
So, where would you be without love?
Where would you be without light?

Eyes blinded with the light
My heart felt what I saw
Brighter flower among withered ones
Joy and happiness caressed my mind
Full of words but tongue tied
But couldn’t let the feeling go unexpressed
In my mind was a jungle of questions
In my heart, answers seemed to be obvious
For once I felt the sweetness of my own thoughts
My soul was gradually driven into the world
The world of her love
Finally I found the match of my heart
The happiness of my soul in sorrow
Remedy to my wounded heart
The love of my life.

Between the two rivers of heart and soul
and mind over matter,
I'll be there near the valley of heartbreak and sorrow
I shall overcome and smile,
as I see you, my love,
parading yourself along with your gypsy caravan down the green hills
on your golden steed,
with your crown of gems and jewels;
waving your pretty, little hand at me from afar,
and I shall stand tall and proud and wait for you,
there in the peace and serenity;
between the two rivers of love and passion,
heart and soul, I'll be there, waiting always for you.

Hair so perfect, is not so trite
Gorgeous bodice it fits just right
Cosmetic done without a flaw
Shoes plus jewels to match it all
Kind expressions always shown
Softened heart will not condone
Loving words so gently spoken
Forgiving hands will be unbroken
Tender laugh so full of jolly
Funny jokes all filled with folly
Sometimes sorrow you hide so well
Maybe someday you’ll foretell
What should we give?
It came with tears
The gift to give you
Seeming so clear.
We both know we hardly say
I’ll love you mom every single day.

A woman belongs to God, not to man
Created from Adams rib
She was made to be by man’s side
Not above or below or just a ride
She is not to be treated any lesser
She is the life giver
Yet man continues to test her
She bares the pain that no man can bare
Man should be fair and care
To see that in today’s world is unfortunately rare
How much more can she take
Overtime she has cried and cried
Man is blind to this because of his pride
Man should protect and provide
Her sorrow will not end but continue into tomorrow
To hurt a woman is to hurt God himself

Sting me my BEE,
sweeter than the sweetest honey
shots you give me,
stunning blinks of fantasy...
I can hear you my bee, buzzing around..
Can you hear the voice too,
of my sizzling heart's sound....
SO, careful with that LOVESTING my BEE...
your sweet venom infects my dreams and me...
I am caught up in your LOVE bubble, don't you see?
now eat my sorrow tree,
and let my soul free...
LOVE YOU MY SWEET BEE.
LOVE THAT LOVESTING OF YOURS..
I WILL BE THE FLOWER YOU NEED,
I AM ALIVE UNTIL ITS YOU I SEE....
A SWEET RHYME FROM ME....
TO MY LOVESTING BEE.................

Words shatter like broken glass,
Heaps of fallen glory stained by the past.
Strewn about are the ashes of our disdain,
in the middle of it all Love lies almost lifeless,
the aftermath of our chaos is all that remains.
Will my heart ever truly feel once more?
A mystery that seemingly evades me
like the sun on a rainy day.
Why has Love gone away from me?
Am I unable to release it from its prison door?
Last I remember, my heart was left to die in a shallow grave,
Since then, I have not been able to resurrect it;
I have clung to sorrow, my soul lying awake,
awaiting Love`s return once more.

Thy love is my all
I shall not want
It makes me lie on bed of roses
It leads me on steps of fluffy cloud
It gladdens my heart
It leads me through paths of difficulties
For thy sake
Even though I walk through the valley of deep darkness
I see clearly
For thy love's rays penetrates all forms of darkness
Thy voice, hands, eyes and thy lips
They excite me
Thou washes my heart anew
And keeps it aglow
In times of intense sorrow and agony
Thou anoints my lips with kisses
My heart overflows
Surely
I shall feel I'm on top of the world
All the days of my life
And thou shall dwell at the bottom of my heart
Forever and ever; Amen.

A PAINFUL GIFT TO TREASURE
Her Heart was filled with grief and sorrow
For her there seemed to be no happy tomorrow
Yet there wasn’t a drop in her eye
Because the pain in her heart was too much to cry!
She hoped that a sense of joy would wrap her around
Longing for peace to completely her surround
So that she could forever sleep
And her heart would no more weep!
She did not want her life any more
For there was nothing to live for
She knew she could end her pain
With a simple cut in her vein!
Although She was tormented in every way
She still struggled to live life every single day
FOR SHE KNEW LIFE WAS A TREASURE
A GIFT, THAT ONLY GOD COULD END, WHENEVER!

Lyric

You are the soul of my destiny, you are the heart of my fantasy,
My whole world moves around you, you are the world of God's courtesy.
Your love gives me always a passion to be alive each of the morning,
it favors me a side to smile through out the day and a reason of sadness absconding.
It always escapes the sadness and gives a way to have lovely tomorrow,
it gives me heartily blessings and removes the sorrow.
Your love is enough to understand the grace of God to me,
for which i will always pray by sitting onto my knee.
You are the reason for me to be a bird and fly in the dream's high,
having wellness, charming and a reason to see and touch the sky.

I walk down this path to see
What once became of me.
In dark ages of before
When swords and rope delivered gore.
These houses they are the same
The church bells sounds remain
The hills and the stream
All know me and why I had to leave
I find a way to the door
Of so many decades afore
Where killers they stained the street
With love that was for me
Found guilty in a lawless trial
I now stand in front of the tree without a smile.
Where tied rope and me
Hung for all people to see
Time consumes the soul of me
Innocence lost in a world of cruelty
Sorrow burned from the heart of me
Pain in life you would not believe
Followed with this soul who can’t get free.

Broken...
Eagerly Erased
Vaguely Visiting Vitality
Encouraged Earlier Evenings End
Remained Ravishing Reality
Lifelessly Lurking
Yearning...
Beggared
Excessively,
Varied
Extensively;
Reasons?
Loving/Losing
You
At Nearabouts Now
Jokingly Obtain Neglect;
Expurgating Self
...breathless
elatedness,
—VANISHING—
—ESCAPING—
...resoundingly
lovable
yore.
Been catching myself, staring off in distance;
Engulfed by the sorrow—forever haunted...
Validate; all my failures and flaws again—
Eerily similar to who came before—
Reflect upon little girl's frivolousness...
Largely too intangible for you to grasp...
Years—Perhaps your best ones, were already gone—

When I say “I can’t take anymore.”
It’s really quite a shame
That doesn’t mean I’ll shut the door
It’s become a losing game
No one here is keeping score
To know you is to love you
To hold you is a need
My mind floods with memories of you
Making my heart bleed
There is no one above you
I don’t want to isolate you
Lock you up at home
Or make those people hate you
They do that on their own
Their image can't create you
People claim to be your friend
Yet, they long to see your sorrow
If ever our love should end
They’d have all of you tomorrow
It’s on you that they depend

We can try and pretend the truth isn't there
For our sister's sake we can be happy without a care,
Trying to escape the terrible reality just for a moment in time
Doesn't seem to hurt on one and it is not a crime,
If only for a short time there is no sorrow or tears for this moment
Can we make it last long enough to extend the reality for pospoment,
I wish we could stop time and never say goodbye
Is that being selfish or is the love we all feel can some how not let her die,
Why is so hard to accept a loved ones demise
We are only human and unlike a clown we don't wear a disquise,
So lets enjoy her life while she is still here
Because once she is gone she will be way up there.

Looking across the dark night, I try , to know my mistakes,
To know why I'm here ,to know why my life shakes.
Nothing seems to go right ,everything is still the same ,
yet in my foresight ,I tremble to smile again.
Lost count of the stars ,as well as the tears falling by,
singing to the tune of, lone birds in the sky.
All efforts seem to go in vain, as I cry and breakdown,
trying to search that hand to wipe my tears and frown.
Missing every past moment, of joy as well sorrow,
uncertainties hanging above, graving over my tomorrow .
Losing every hope I had ,I close my eyes in emptiness ,
listening to the empty silence ,tortured by loneliness.
I dream of the day, the day sun would rise,
make me feel good ,and my mistakes I may realize.

ANACREONTIC (MY EPIGRAM TO FUNMI)
Ode to ¹"Oluwafunmilayo",
Gimme reckless & endless "²ayo",
More limitless & restless valor
bcos "³ní lé mi wà báyo",
Safe all the drama & "àló",
Let's make love from bed to parlor
and ecstasy slit deep like razor.
Crown forbades sorrow when "°¹adébáyo",
Your joy is welcomed by "°²AdéDáyo",
Dithyrambic passion, "°³je ká sayo",
Ravel in this forever realm.
Anacreontic, ode to the Queen FM.

It’s been too long since we last spent time together
Too long, since we last had a passionate kiss
Remembering all the fun memories that we shared
All the times in which I cherished
Such a happy moment that soon left me
In such a sorrow life that I am now living
So much pain and agony that I feel
Being scared of the worst things to come
How our relationship can soon come to a fall
I can’t take any more of these hardships
The suffering is to bearable to even speak
How I wish to be with the one
That I can no longer even see
Times are rough
And they are only going to get rougher
All that I can hope for now is patience
And that patience is now waiting for me
I am sorry for all the trouble I have caused you
But all I ask for you my love
Is for you to patiently wait for me

A light amongst the Darkness;
or so I do recall...
An illuminating star burning cold;
with sorrow and all...
Maybe one day I'll have your heart,
The day our magicks won't burn apart.
And it'll just be you and me in this art.
I found solace in your radiant light,
Depression's Malice was far from bright.
How I adored you dear, -each night.
I tried to please you, I know I was cold,
You actually made me want to grow old.
My covenant broken and bathed in scold.
I didn't deserve Love; frozen in Black ice!
Expected to much now I bare sacrifice.
Revolve my emotions, take me suicide.
And now I shall never feel your kiss
never swim in your fruitful bliss...
Highly I doubt that someone will miss.
So here I die, in my own little tide,
Now you can be happy with me aside...

With foggy mind
and matted hair
My feet adorned
the holiday pair.
One red, one green
at Christmas time
when eventually, I'd lose...
my mind.
I wish I could make
Some sense of it all
I shuffled along
Down the dimly lit hall.
The loss in my spirit
The pain in my heart,
I loved you my friend ...
til death due us part.
I'll miss how you smiled
With bright, white teeth
Laughing along in this world
Great joy to those you meet.
But today I will say
my last good-bye,
Until we meet again
that twinkle in your eye.
Now I'll gather my thoughts
Ask my mind to clear
I'll never forget how
You died that year.
Then removing the slippers
walking straight out the door
Good-bye my friend
May our sorrow be no more.

Not sadness nor sorrow shall bring age to thy face,
not worry nor burdens of life.
Happy moments shall grant thee beauty and grace,
and every hope that sheds light on thy life
Too dear are tears in thy eyes,
if not of happiness or bliss,
sweet feelings thy heart shall not hide,
nor thy love would I ever miss.
However cruel life may be sometimes,
and whatever worries I’ll surely dismiss,
sweet crystal tears I’ll dry from thy eyes,
and thy soft tender lips I’ll caress with a kiss.
No doorless dungeon can keep us apart
nor shackles of a thousand chain,
not even a rough endless journey nor any suffering or pain.
No mortal soul can deprive me from thy love,
just as,
no mad man can claim he is sane,
no need for thee to bare burden
as long as thy love runs in my vein.
