It takes two...to love
Vs 1
It takes two...to love,
one is just not enough
I love you... but my love's not enough
you don't even try to love,
and I see you just don't care
Bridge 1
And if your feelings for me don't change...
it just won't be enough...
because, it takes two...to love,
yeah it takes two...to love
Chorus
Love is not a one way street
there are two sides to every story
how can two lovers ever meet
if they keep seeking their own glory?
The two need to share one heart,
cast aside their human pride
and give true love a try!
Vs 2
Two become one...when there's love
they both can share,
Two become one....
when the other just doesn't care
Bridge 2
And if you can't find in your heart...
enough feelings to move you to love
It just won't be enough...
because, it takes two...to love...
yeah it takes two...to love
Chorus
Love is not a one way street
there are two sides to every story
how can two lovers ever meet
if they keep seeking their own glory?
The two need to share one heart,
cast aside their human pride
and give true love a try!
Bridge 1
And if your feelings for me don't change...
it just won't be enough...
because, it takes two...to love,
yeah it takes two...to love

The mystical allure
Of an island in the sun
Embraced by deepest waters
Of sparkling sapphire blue
A tranquil sanctum
A secret retreat
A calling from within
Where one day two sweet lovers meet
And on this Isle their hearts entwined
Where promises and vows were made
A love eternal
A love divine
A love that stood the test of time
Now all alone I live here still
Known as the loner on the hill
For one night many years ago
A storm it raged and roared below
My darling he was swept away
How I survived I’ll never know
And now each night I hear him call
In poignant guise of whale songs
Pitiful songs
A haunting refrain
Of love long gone
As they call out his name
For now I am ancient
All withered and frail
The only words muttered
Incomprehensible now
These mutterings of a senseless soul
Professing her deepest love
Driven to distraction
Oh so many years ago
For tonight she's truly ready
It is now her time to go
So making her way down
Over perilous rocks below
He will surely come to greet
Her loving heart doth tell her so
She hears his songs of love
From so many years ago
The sea it gently takes her
Wrapped within its sparkling waves
Tentatively transporting her
Deep down into her watery grave
Now every night their songs of love
Enchant and mesmerise the Isle
Two lovers dance forevermore
To songs of whales
Sweet songs of love

HONORABLE MENTION
Why does hatred bloom where two lovers stand
vowing only to cherish each other forever?
When it is love and hope that brought them together,
why do hoards of people want their union banned?
Just because it is a love they cannot understand?
Does it somehow make their lives a little bit better
keeping different drummers from marrying ever?
And here I thought we lived in a free land.
Why must we put restrictions on how people love?
Why does homosexuality scare people so?
Consenting adults should be allowed their own choice.
I’ll leave moral judgment to the heavens above,
but this is one thing that I certainly now know -
a union of any two lovers is a cause to rejoice.

The pulsing redness of the dying sun,
Began to prevail into nothingness.
Yet all around the promenade
Bright lights shone from the business venue.
They sat on a bench, close, whispering sweet nothings.
The night was young, and they had much to say.
Would they wait for dawn?
Lights shimmer on the quiet sea,
like drifting dreams that never fade away.
She was tired and rested her head
On his shoulder as he held her close.
Then things began to shift.
Around the bay, bulbs were now in full light
The brass band began to blare.
Everyone was happily singing.
And in the depth of the bay
Fireworks cracked upwards
Sending sparkling stars above
It is a journey of excellent exhibition.
The two lovers stood up hand in hand.
And began their walk far from the crowd
Towards the quiet, where the moon had arisen.
A lovely red moon that was their wonder,
This is story of two lovers
for no other they have any sight
for their love is always truly set
for their love gives a real bite
They go to the great banquet
where the banner over them is love
nothing else can ever compare
till when they reach heaven above
This bride appears like the dawn
majestic as all the stars in the sky
having a brightness all of it's own
makes one ponder with a sigh
The bridegroom loves his lover
desiring for her in love alone
taking his desire to the countryside
where time flies by instantly flown
Come away the two shall go
together equally as a gazelle
such love pure as the winter snow
locked together in their hidden shell
( based on Song of Solomon)
When love is torn asunder and there is nothing left but dissent,
a lover's heart will be shattered, mortally wounded and rent.
In a relationship that was once held as sacred and eternal,
sorrow takes a heavy toll on the one left behind, and infernal
flames of grief scorch the lonely heart so that it must dwell,
suffering in what seems like the fiery abyss of emotional hell.
Forlorn the man when his once-upon-a-time love went astray,
and became a wraith without a face. She refused to stay.
Dressed in bridal gown, perhaps she seeks a new marriage mate,
a man who will please her instead of treating her like a roommate.
She looks forward to a brighter future than one she's left behind,
wondering why she married him. How could she have been so blind?
Could it be there's another side to the separation of two lovers?
In death she was buried in a white shroud. Sorrowfully, he hovers.
A bouquet of crimson flowers he's brought to leave at her grave
but he cannot bear to look at the tomb. Today, he's not that brave.
Ghostlike she appears to him, a wispy figure, floating in the mist.
He's haunted by memories of the lips he'd passionately kissed.
CAST A LONG SHADOW
Moonbeam to cast a long shadow of us,
as we hugged and turned to single figure.
To make love, two lovers were too eager.
On ebon night stars sparkling on sky canvas.
A long shadow of us, Moonbeam to cast
Maroon Moon winks peeping through drifting cloud.
Neither storm nor thunder bolt was allowed.
Emotion to exult, dream to run fast.
We are loitering on quiet seashore
Two charmed hearts bubbled in amorous flow.
Dark shadow to follow: Bright Moon to glow.
Vibrant waves thrashing on beach in galore.
Faced Moon, shadow at back, oblivious.
Hand in hand, eyes to eyes, lovers are thrilled.
Quivering lips pressed with deep kiss: Love was sealed.
Moonbeam to cast a long shadow of us.

Stepping across these bodies
Makes me ill
Pools of blood stitched
In the soles of my shoes
Body parts dripping from
Walls where bullets passed
She went to school that day
Skipping and laughing along the way
Gunfire from hell
Unleashed in a fury of hate
For no reason at all
Convenient it seems
Seven year old girl
Face half gone
Her mother weeps
They did nothing
Stepping across these lifeless forms
Makes me ill
Rivers of blood
Stain the asphalt
Two lovers embraced
In death
Bullets passed through
Denying them life
They went to a concert that day
Joking and laughing along the way
Gunfire from Hell
Rang down from above
For no reason at all
Convenient it seems
Their parents weep
They did nothing
Stepping across these mangled forms
Makes me ill
Bodies slumped over
In wooden pews
Riddled with bullet holes
Bibles in their hands
They went to pray to Jesus
Thinking everything right
Gunfire from hell
The open front door
All are welcome
Convenient it seems
Jesus weeps
They did nothing
Stepping across these mutilated forms
Makes me ill
Bleeding bodies
Screaming kids
Bisected limbs
Coughing up blood
It was their first date
Popcorn and cokes
Gunfire from hell
Came from the stage door
Down the aisles he strutted
Convenient it seems
Defying reason
They did nothing
Don’t you understand
What doing nothing
Has done?
Complicit you are
No leadership you show
Your arrogance defies wisdom
Don’t you give a damn?
Maybe, if the dead
Were one of yours?
No??
I’m going to guess
You’re too %*# vain
Makes you guilty as well
Stepping across these bodies
These bodies covered in blood
These bodies without faces
Ties a knot
Deep in my heart
Makes me ill
Blankets cover the dead
We don’t have to look
Yet we’re part of the scene
Living in fear
These killing fields
Make me ill
Another eight today
The farmer's pond was still and dark
the boat was small and light
two lovers they did disembark
their pleasure to excite,
all on a summer's night.
He rowed them out and let them float
into his arms she came,
the dense pine cloaked, kept them remote
two lover's sought their claim,
their passions so inflamed.
She felt him smile, as off he leapt
from boat to waist high lea,
he beckoned her into his keep
a groom and his beauty,
all night's passions to foresee.
On the soft sand, the fertile land
he pledged his troth to she,
as maid and man blessed the soft sand
with raucous revelry
lovers in harmony.

In the land of the rising sun, where the Igbo people thrive
A love story unfolded, between Ekemma and Nnanyereugo alive
A tale of passion, of hearts that beat as one
Between two lovers, beneath the moon's silver throne
Ekemma, a beauty to behold, with a heart so kind
Nnanyereugo, strong and brave, with a love so true and aligned
Their love was like a gentle breeze, that swept across the land
Bringing joy and happiness, to their families and friends so grand
The ubo drumbeat, echoed through the air
As Nnanyereugo approached Ekemma, with a lover's gentle care
He presented her with a gift, of a beautifully crafted necklace
A symbol of his love, and a promise to forever cherish and caress
The elders gathered, to witness their love so true
As Ekemma and Nnanyereugo, exchanged their vows anew
With a traditional wine, and a prayer so dear
Their love was sealed, and their hearts did clear
In the presence of their families, and friends so dear
Ekemma and Nnanyereugo, did pledge their love this year
With a bond so strong, and a love so true
Their hearts belong to each other, forever anew
Ututu Umunwa, love's gentle breeze so true
Forever and always, our love will shine through
In the Igbo tradition, our love will stand tall
Ututu Umunwa, love's gentle breeze, forever for all.
