Premium Member He who walks the soul

Death, faded memory to nothing 
Emptiness bares the skin's reflected pain 
Eyes of the soul's depths 
Pains torcher drives its fiery 
Personality rage to desire temptation 
What is a soul except its being 
Buried beneath the dirt fields 
Where which that comes from the sun feeds 
Heart to feel such anguish emotion 
Like salt to a wound the burn 
The faded soil, winters toll 
Reality withering improvisation of dreams 
A simpler love for life's ambition 

Sourness of the wind crinkle still 
Life's storm, space traveler amongst us 
In another place, where we are 
Not ourselves but somebody, something 
What drives this beast out darkness 
So loved am I who walks light 
That its deception perceives me 
Where in my depths I hide feeling 
My heart wicked to minds perceptive 
Or in our own thought one breathes 
Reflection, stillness within life gives warmth 
Aspire dreamer to what one is to be

Dedication To the Lord

Dedication to the Lord
Through the glory of His works
That the verses might  come to be
To dwell within ones soul
Giving a newfound love and inexpressible joy
The work has been done
We just need more to see 
This world is rejecting Christ
But when one gets tired of it
Call out unto His name
For guidance, wisdom, knowledge
And the light within to reveal
The darkness and deception around us
For He said my people die from lack of knowledge.
This is seen more clearly 
And that people love darkness
Instead of light, for most do
Not comprehend they are really
In darkness seperated from God.





I called on your name, Lord, from the depths of the pit. You heard my plea: “Do not close your ears to my cry for relief.” You came near when I called you, and you said, “Do not fear.” You, Lord, took up my case; you redeemed my life.
Lamentations 3:55?-?58 NIV


who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
Psalms 103:4?-?5 NIV


but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31 NIV



Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
1 Peter 1:8 NIV


Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
Colossians 3:12 NIV

Premium Member Janus Face

Janus Face

Chaotic dialect set-off back-and-forth
Two contrasting characteristics 
One is proven to be duplicitous
Political backing of the other party
Now denies it
A refusal that of a true statement
Two-headed bull, speaks gibberish
But the bull is goaded,
wounded, half-crazed
If the bull could reason, 
it would understand
After the matador shows off 
assessing the bull
The matador unfurls a red cape
Makes me sigh
Men, and women who stand by the bull
Who want to take away freedom 
A kind of deception in which you 
intentionally hide your true feelings 
Intentions behind false words or
Freedom’s away from women's choices 
Of their own bodies! 

Immigrants’ work grants and
reforms dissolving 
They define our American character 
and shared history
They are not a problem we need solving
Doctors arrested for saving mothers' 
LGBT rights gone
It’s wrong according to the Good Book 
A*** or oral copulation “bad acts” 
aren’t limited to homophobes
Hear, hear,
Listen to you!
Invisible self
I’m just a regular guy trying to help you – 
but if you go back to your old world, beware, 
because there are some tricky guys out there
No freedom for those people
Students’ books banned, 
Bullying left-facing taken into their own hands

Shine a spotlight on the humanity of immigrants, 
and the underlying theme is compassion
Chaotic dialect back-and-forth
Left-facing a Warrior for the people
Our beautiful United States will not be free at all
If together we don’t stand,
So, divided we will fall

On day 1, I promise to take all social experimentation (affordable housing), woke agenda (ban books), side issues (woke ideology) and throw them in the trash—Ron DeSantis

There's one thing that we have in common— Neither of us will be the nominee for our party in 2024—Gavin Newsom

Seedlings

We all start out like seedlings
Just emerging from the earth,
Alike in that we’re each of us
A product of a birth.

Depending on our genus,
We may grow up tall and straight
Or be scraggly or bristly,
Rooted down by luck or fate.

We’ll be nurtured and be nourished
Or be totally ignored,
Grow in gardens gently tended
Or be trampled and abhorred.

Some of us will sport some flowers
To embellish and adorn,
While for others there’s deception
Waiting in a hidden thorn.

Though there’s sun and rain and shelter,
Nature doesn’t really care
If each seedling has an equal shot,
For life just isn’t fair.

Premium Member Imagined You

Did I just imagine you or are you just a dream
maybe just a figment of my brains insanity
do I dare to question whether you are really real?
maybe I should tell someone how lost I really feel

do you know how lonely it is inside my brain?
there is no one to share this deep embodied pain
I tried to do everything to show you how deeply I feel
but you never bought that this was ever the real deal

I don't know what to say to you, have no way to explain
the disappointment that I felt when it just washed away
remember the day you confirmed you had lied to me
didn't you understand that betrayal cut way deep

time and time I asked you and you thought I had no clue
I was not the clueless one your deception I saw through
so I sit here all alone not knowing what to say
wanting to reassure you that everything is okay

maybe the relationship was only in my brain
maybe there is no you, that you are a figment I create
doesn't matter anyway, I'll love you all the same


Thought

Thought,

Everyday there's so much thought,

Seems atleast one was fought,

Others could've been bought.

Distracting us from which we sought.

----------------------------------------------

Many are an option to use,

Some were there to confuse,

There are those you should refuse,

Thoughts are not for us to abuse.

--------------------------------------------------

Approach thoughts wisely,

Most run through blindly.

Respect your thoughts highly,

They repay you kindly.

----------------------------------------------

Thoughts are key to perception.

They can lead to deception.

Or complete a divine inception.

All depending on the reception.

Life Haunts Me

Life haunts me!
Every aspect of it.....haunts me !
It did not give me peace,
is not giving me peace,
suppose will never endow me with peace.
Not till the day, i finally escape from it.

Constant, a bitter halo surrounds,
questions, questions ! remains ever unanswered.

All I wanted
is to live by my heart, wanted to breathe free,
and the world to understand me.

What am I ? Why am I ? What purpose do i serve ?
Rode through million lectures but I still starve.

I am but a misfit, an outsider,
never wanted to wield brain, muscle or power
or strike life with lethal strategies,
tiresome masquerades and facade every hour.

In vain, waited and searched, for a life deserving for me.
Supreme and cruel it is, nothing but a conspiracy. 

I cannot calculate or lie, wear any mask,
diplomacy and deception, indecency and dominance,
manipulate and massacre, always been to disgusted to master.
These are the tools of the Devil,
the scourge from his kingdom of hell,
then what should we think of our world, heaven?
No my friend, it is the excerpts of HELL!

Feelings and emotions, with the purity of my heart,
has only made me a mad man, in the evil eyes of the world.

I want to breathe free, the world to understand me,
to live by my heart,......... or this evil earth,
I will only abhor thee. Oh! how I abhor thee.

Please perish me, from this nonsense life,
and from all of its haunting miseries.

Premium Member It Was At Lekki

ENDSARS

It was at Lekki, 
we were unanimous, 
ENDSARS was our slogan, 
the national anthem on our lips, 
we made a plea without war,
to profligates in Power, 
But at Lekki they shed innocent blood, 
to continue their corruption. 


It was at Lekki 
where they pulled the trigger 
men, 
armed by the state, 
deployed from Bonny camp,
at the orders of a despot, 
the tyrannical old guard,  
Dead or alive we cannot tell.
But at Lekki they shed innocent blood, 
to continue their corruption. 

It was at lekki 
where we converged 
united in purpose,
demanding an end to brutality. 
and the long unceasing corruption
for which a nation is stunted. 
But at lekki they shed innocent blood,  
to continue their corruption.   


It was at Lekki 
their symbol of oppression, 
became more apparent
The dictator wore his old khaki, 
after long years of deception. 
The Murder of Youth this time, 
But at Lekki they shed innocent blood, 
to continue their Corruption. 


It was at lekki 
they cloaked their crime in darkness, 
to obscure evidence as they always do.
One more brutality in the dark, 
to force the Youths to submission. 
Again they shed innocent blood, 
to continue their corruption.

Chatter

Chatter

Lost in this familiar void, between reality and thought
There are constant voices, you hear that never speak out
Many thoughts, many questions, both true and oh so wrong
Many emotions misunderstood, perhaps lost in a familiar song

Ramblings of some past deception, justification in your mind
Confusion of what is true, what terrible lies you may find
Reliving a scenario, that you thought were so true
Unaware that this uncertainty, is this truly all in you

This is the dialog we have, so deep inside all our own minds
This is chatter that we all have, many thoughts of many kinds
A constant chatter, so hard to control, so hard to shut down
In our nightmares and dreams they sometimes may be found

Your chatter is your minds song, it sings its song for only you 
This chatter is your reverberating thoughts, old and so new
An internal conversation, for one and only you are the guest
Seeking answers to many questions, though lost in many quests

May you find ways to still this constant battle within your mind
Try to be in a state of calmness and contentment that redefine
And still your mind with meditation and calming deep breaths
Guardian angels may appear, within your subconscious depths
