Throwing Sand

Ludicrous childhood - 
It's a sweet, sun-drenched day at 
The beach with family!
Spunky and childish - 
Throwing sand everywhere...fun!
I aim at strangers ~x~
Craaaazy memories
I still remember Summer
And its beach wonders! 
Obnoxious laughter
Is heard as we step foot in 
Freezing, salt water...x.x
The beach is God's pool
It's like a playground - tides come
ROLLIN' IN...splashing!
We can't stay in one place
We're drifting away 
Into a phase of youth's bliss...
We can't keep a steady pace 
We're slippin' and fallin' and slidin'
But we wrap around our merriness 
We're swimmin' and playin' around
Without a single care 
We're playing
A game of 

/Truth/      /OR/      /Dare/


Back To School

Ring of full scale chromatic laughter,
Every voice with a touch of merriness.
The classroom shines,
in its fresh coat of paint...
Breath filled with smell of new books and starched uniforms.
Old and less familiar faces... shine and beam:
Excited to make new friends. 
Lost feelings felt again...
Lost memories coming back to life...
Excitement echoes through every corridor. 
A term ended with tears of farewell.
A month to end ourselves,
now a term has begun in excitement,
lighting yet again a beacon of hope. 

*the first term for the academic year of 2019 began yesterday, the 2nd of January 2019.

In Between

I’m in between
The darkness and light…how can I make progress?
I’m in distress
The happiness…will never last – will never lead to
Everlasting success... 
I’ll never reach
Soaring success…

I’m in between
Land and water 
But, the grass on the other side is green
And I’ll remain
Unseen… 
Unseen for life 
Gobbling up repulsive strife  
Invisible like the spirits…  
Roaming the earth and haunting people 
To the maximum 

I’m in between
Merriness and desolation…how can I make progress?
I’m entwined in my mess 
The jubilance…will have its end– will never lead to
Sky-high success…
I’ll never attain 
Vivacious victory 

I’m feeling numb – 
I’m in between doubt and hope…
Not sure what shoulder I should lean on…
Not sure what path to take…my life’s at stake
And all I could do at this moment is mope
Trapped in a bewildered state…
Unfasten me out of this seatbelt 
Before I melt away…before I subside 
Away from your dynamic light 

My faith towards Him converts to fright… 
Don’t confiscate me from my homeland
Why do I have to depart tonight? I don’t understand…
 
I’m in between
Giving up and enduring…how can I seek blissfulness?
I’m under pressure…I’m compacted by tons of stress 
The exultation…will soon wither away–
 Goodbye to success... 
Goodbye to my heart’s desire!
Forget about my progress 
What does success require of me? 

(just so that you know: Am I Close To Success is the 2nd part of this)

My Beloved Wish

You are like my mesmerizing lullaby
You soothe my body…warming me like blankets
You make me die all the time when you prepare to fly
You are making me daydream without ruthless regrets
Your powers are amazing! You can even teach me to fight
With Your thundering might,
You melt away my impassive heart…
Like a candle, scorching with fright
 
You are like the merry midnight sky
But our merriness broke loose when you waved bye-bye to our friendship
You make me cry in high spirits time and time again…when I receive your reply!
You are inspiring me to take wing like an eagle, but I lost my grip
My emotions are roaming freely…someday I’ll reach to heaven’s height
With your mind-blowing sight,
You shun out the anxiety brewing in my tender heart
Like a dandy candle…a wish that won’t depart

Air

I am like the air
Smoking it up in here
I am like my hair,
Rising above the ashes without any fear
Like a phoenix in middair

I am like the air
Provoking me to stare
I am shedding no tear
Up in here
Up in here

High as high can be
I am set free...free...free...
I fear the unknown
I am all alone...on my own

Express yourself freely
Be who you want to be
Who cares what the others think
This feeling of neglect is making me sink

Heartless hopelessness personally weighs me down
I am a mess in total distress and it pays me a frown
Sorrow smiles my way
Can't look away
Can't look away
I gaze at sorrow
There is no tomorrow

Unless I smoke this joint...
Up in this house of get-to-the-point
Moisten my lips of doubt
There is another route to go about and run in - there is another way out

Glisten with me
Where have you been?
I thought we were free
Once again, you and I aren't a ten

We exhanged merriness
Uptight and fatigued...
I am such an epic mess
Understand - I'm intrigued...
And fond my bizarre things
I am enlightened by these flightful wings
Wings
Wings

Afraid of drifting away
So, I smoke till I choke
Today, I choke in tears of shame - I pray
You don't provoke me...
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore

I am embracing air
And your despair
Life is not clearly fair
I long to see beyond my stare
My stare
In this mirror..
I am just this mighty blur
I wurr in the abyssal spirals of her...
Beauty in the air...
Her breasts of fantastic flares
Gives me no more nightmares
Throwing chairs in the air
We are a perfect, yet imperfect pair
Regret me not up in this air
Of smoke from marijuana delight
Delight
Delight

Time goes by too consistently and speedily
Accidently accelerated into oblivion astonishingly

Now, I am free
Take flight with me
Take flight with me
Take flight with me
Come on now
Somehow,
You got to shine gloriously
Into the air of vast beauty
A vitality beyond vivaciousness for an eternity
Honestly

Frankly, I don't give a damn about your flame or your watery passion
I am in the air and in the clouds of my compassionate fashion


Restore the Walls of Jericho

Blasphemy…cloud over their hearts of gold
Their value gradually diminishes…their weapons turn to mold
Serenity…deserted them and neglected them like orphans 
Their joy rapidly wears out…they mislaid their abundant portions

They yearn,
“RESTORE the walls of Jericho!”

Anguish…shadows over their dwelling, sacred place 
Their weaknesses manipulate them – they’re the definition of disgrace
Danger…defeats them and tarnished them as if they were worthless
Their prosperity shattered straightaway! REBUILD our merriness!

They plead and pray,
“Dona nobis pacem…”  

Hear our hesitation and supplication…we’re beneath the bricks and remains
We’re buried alive literally! We’re becoming one with the ground
Fear and despair erases our soothing dreams…we’re getting washed away in the drains
We’re searching for shelter…we’re getting hunted down – we’re barely surviving 

They churn…
They coil…
They drift away…
They spoil…
In their miseries…
Does He hear their pleas?

“SAVE ME!”
“Bestow blessings upon us!”
Are you ignoring us deliberately?
 “Give us a helping hand
And lead us to the promise land!”

Misfortune unravels in this city of bafflement
Their strengths repaired our souls…we’re the definition of bravery! 
Desolation and disbelief demolishes the walls of Jericho…
Does anyone sense their resentment?
Their charity transformed to greed suddenly – 
Their lack of optimism and gratitude  
Buried them down in captivity
 

How can you bear their poverty? 
How can He save them from destruction and pity?

They whisper on His Holy Hill,
“Dona…Nobis…Pacem…” 

Don’t let the battle overthrow ’em!

Premium Member Hopeful Days

Cold dissipates as the Winter bird tweets.
Perpetual treat, that enters my ear, singsong
merriness, retreats all too quick, completes
its assignment, to the next neighbor, gets along.

Stillness of second Winter, naked oaks.
A seasonal painting as my window frames.
Upcoming Spring, the loss in April, brushstrokes
that paint a vivid scene, purple in flames.

Summer and Fall wedged in between, poking
the embers, sending smoke up the chimney hole.
On this side of heaven long days, never revoking
the pact to keep sealed in her urn, memories toll.

Still heaven is hope, hopeful days of endless sun,
seasons without pallor and pain, holding so soft
hands, hugging eternity, leaning on Tree of Life; one
family in the Lord; my mother’s eyes…I look aloft.

Abiku

Abiku!
Friend nor foe
Named from above.
A gift from the yard of elegbara
Olagbegi's kicking hope.
Abiku!
A dashing beauty she's bestowed,
enough to light a father's grope.
Abiku!
Asake's grace in barrenness.
Off and on, she would not mind
'Come, and i will call you mine,
'Mother' till then i'll bear'.
Abiku! Abiku!! Abiku!!!
Touch her not, she might live
One who dines with ebora dudu,
a company when she is set to leave.
Abiku!
Your visit i do not beseech.
Your mercy i only seek.
Ekuru and eko wine to your descent,
gracing the feet of oluwere.
Abiku!
In tears you delight
Merriness you found in sorrow.
Leave and never come back
One who feeds on her mother's back.
Abiku!
Shame, you have cursed till eternity
In flame, yet you are never tamed.
One whose trowel never dries,
From the cries of hopeless eyes.
Abiku!!!

Premium Member Love VI

 Fervent  rainbows vow to deck
 a gloomy, woeful moon 
with merriness and blissfulness.
 Whispered dreams of virtue
triumph over a murky ,
desultory  brook.
The serene , meandrous 
butterfly  is rocked by  
an ephemeral  , passing
chimera.
 An angelic  ,tranquilized petal
 resides in the realm  of 
melodious ,  
gracefulness.
Whispers  of lovely  rose
dwell in  a tempestuous,
ardent  sea.
The symphonic melody
of an unchanging
stork's felicity
overshadows the unflagging
hawk's power.
Delightful sunbeams echo
the unafraid, doughty  breath
 of a sedate chrysanthemum.
                            .
