Woven with your strings,i found no
escape from
your obsession.
Ones that left me sentenced to thinking
as i
committed you to memory and stayed
vigil in wait
for your return.
Hallucinations from the spells you cast
on me.
Those times when i froze in wait for
your love and
heard the wolves scavenge in the cold.
While i drew your pillow close and drew
images of
you in the dark.
And in my dreams i could not get
enough of you
because i bred and fed thoughts of you
from the
hunger of your touch.
But you were everything i thought you
never
would be for you left me straining my
eyes at
every apparition.
And in all my efforts i lost while
bestowed with
desparation.
With the dawn fading into day and the
orange
skies losing grip to dark.
My long for your warm breath on my
neck and
the rollicking feel of your skin with mine.
But i guess that is just me thinking out of
the blue
and baking memories brown because it
was long
due,this bitter tale of our hearts.
Like a chorus sung in deep spirits,
It is well with my soul
For a minute, i think you mean it, you
wouldn't date me even i'f i crawl
And when I think about it, it is well with
my soul.
My heart has drowned in my black blood,
Yours is free, it survived this mystery flood,
It is not fair that my love is denied,
But it is well with my soul.
I've never wished for you to make me
happy,
But only that I be the one that makes you
happy.
Go with your pride and dignity
cut and wrap with a dirty bandage to my
personality
Lead me on then change your mind,
Let my true love scatter around your
torment
Make my tears pour until there's not one
drop left
Because it is well with my soul.
Go out there and tell everybody I had a
weakness
Tell them you had the power to make me
breathless
Come witness my heart in sickness
And be proud that you broke it
It is well with my soul.
You woke the beast that is in
me
Mess with my life and you will
see
Your fate is no longer for you to
decide
All that is left is to hide
You saw me as only a boy
But now you will be my toy
Your love for me has died
However your mind will soon be
fried
My voice will haunt you
You may even see an image too
Good luck with your life
It will be filled with stress and
strife
When my heart broke I fell
I will see you soon in hell
It pains me to know so much time has passed, yet
my love remains. The winds and old trees
witnesses of what we once were.
The hands of time hold me by the hand and guide
me into forever.
Then forever was too long now it only seems to
have fallen short, and just like that you fade out of
my life.
I miss you, I can't help but day dream of your
golden curly hair.
Those full lips that made me shiver as they came
into my view.
I will always write to your memory Gloria, my
heart swells as I realize I may never seen you
again.
I only rejoice in memories past when I held you
and kissed you.
The way you looked into my soul and I into your
eyes.
I know your heart feels for me, yet your fear
keeps you at a distance.
Only time reminds you of me, of yesterday.
I saw you with
her the other day,
Can't deny that
it made me feel
some type of way.
Haven't seen you in so long
Would've thought these feelings
Were long gone.
It's sad to say
That my love for you,
Will probably always stay.
I miss us hand in hand,
Lip to Lip, hug in hug,
every morning filled with love.
Now I can't help think that you
Are doing it with her.
You saw me with
him the other day,
You looked at
me in some way.
Haven't spoken to
each other in so long,
Now I'm tryin to keep strong,
Because looking at you makes
me want to break down.
But I'm happy to see,
That you have officially
Moved on from me.
We both moved forward
And if we look back,
Would we go back?
You say you cared
You say you tried,
But why are you
Now telling me goodbye?
I wanted your love,
You let me fall
From way up above.
But my love was never enough.
I'm tired of crying
I'm tired of hurting
But you don't seem
To mind all these tears
Through the past couple
Of years.
You say I was wrong
You say I was dumb,
But you proved
You were right.
All of the times
I stood up through the night,
And all of the words
I said during out fights,
Should have given me reasons
to say goodbye.
But I didn't.
You say I was
never enough,
Your words,
I could never trust,
It's what you say
That brings me down
But this time I will not drown.
Never would I ever
Listen to what
You Say.
Just your smell brings a million thoughts
to my mind,
When you speak you try to sound so
condescending,
Your soul seems so empty towards me
like we never had any history,
Why has forgetting come so easy for you,
Blood, sweat, and tears for you,
Giving up on my own dreams for you,
Would have laid down this very life for
you,
The misuse of my heart and feelings
saddens me to the core,
Selfishness and lack of concern just simply
astounds me,
What more could I have possibly given to
make you happy,
If only I had known happiness cannot be
made but has to be found,
I always had mine but you had not found
yours yet,
Never admitting this to me I hope you do
regret,
A future that looked so promising with
positive flow,
The existence I had create was only for us,
Brought to an end on lies and deceit,
Now all destroyed how can I rebuild in all
this rubble.
Arewa! The
princess of
my lord
Her face like a
shinning
gold
That shines to
conquer
my inward part
When hatred is
battling
with my heart
Oh! The beauty that
poet long to behold
But its a shame
My lord won your
heart
by fame
Then my sun is
ashamed
For the cloud gives
way
for moon to proud
Arewa, your beauty
clasped my heart as
if
to remove
Still i cried of love
Tell my lord that
love is
not fame
Since he can't water
your desert land
But if its a fame
Tell me i've gone out
of
my mind
Arewa, if the world
moves to my turn
tomorrow
Let me be the
landlord
of your heart
If my lord kills me
with
sorrow
I'll bear it just to
have
my painted grave in
your heart
Adesitimi Taiwo
I see you
at the bottom
of my pool
A past so deep
I can't see the end
anymore
there are moments
it sneaks to my surface
and hits me
it levels me
to the ground
you level me
destroy me
and wait for me to rebuild
all sadness Errors and
guilt
just burn me down
and spit on my ashes
rub me into the earth
with the heel of your shoe
It is that of our hearts
we feel, as if one had
die. That of a love that
past. That of a love we
lost. It is of a
remembrance we
think. When we sad
and lonely inside. That
of the darkness fills
our soul down deep.
It's the thought of
what we wish we still
had. But never the
doulbt, its the true
feeling to which makes
us sad. That of my
heart, the void, the
pain which exist. I am
alive but only cause he
wont let me die. I fight
to survive as the tears
roll down my face. The
Love, the hate, it eats
at me. Why me lord?
What did I do to feel
such hurt? Please,
release me that I may
fly that like a bird. And
carry this love far
from my heart. But
stay close! You all I
got left in this world.
I used to be a poet, a singer, a lover even
I chant your name across the star filled
skies
Then forever was too long
Now forever just equals never, and I weep
My sour tears drop as dreams that once
made me rejoice in hope
Still, I am just a dreamer
I question my life and its meaning if any
Mysteries hug my eyes and cuddle my soul
Yet I find to question love
It's not the signed paper nor rings that tie
two souls
It's the invisible force to be near one
another that makes a bond
I was once in love, but she showed me love
was nor real
How could you refuse to your own heart
Now I am with another that loves me more
than I could ever imagine and my heart
idles still feeling absent
When will I find true love
As if the word not exist for me
I draw to conclude I am nothing
Therfore I hang to dry until I expire
Let the world know I was once a poet a
lover but always a dreamer
My first love
is a whore
but i want her back
because she always had my back
when everyone
threw me back, barked, nagged disappeared
continuously on me
just because,
i try and cry to make them understand how i feel
about them
My first love
is a whore
but i want her back
because the love apple, love bite, and her loving
kindness,
makes me lovesick,
and unloved to other love birds, that promiscuously
convey my way,
to convict my heart.
My first love
Is a whore
But I want her back
because she has not false me
but she has inherently taken me the way I am
So I am also readily convinced
to take her the way she is
into my love life
My first love
Is a whore
But I want her back
for I now known
that those whom I took as the goal keepers of my
life 'my friends'
Imprisoned my affections for my first love,
overstretched my suspicion,
and tore my first love's glossy fondness, into
unscrupulous odiousness
My first love
Is a whore
but I will become a fishmonger
Just to fishnet her back into my life,
because I truly want back my first love
even if she is going to come back without her love,
but with her heart
that will serve
Just to see and be with her again
When I think of you,
I think fear.
I think hate and lost trust,
And lots and lots of lust.
When I think you,
I think envy.
I think being green for the girls
you fancied,
You left me alone while you
played me.
Leaving me to wonder..
Would you really come back
and date me?
When I think of you,
I think of my youth.
When nothing me happier than
to be with you,
I think how love and sex were
new to me.
But not to you...
I fear many things.
But I fear most when I think of
you.
My mind is stuck revolving
Around a passion for a girl
And try as I might to stop it
My mind just whirls and whirls
From dawn til dusk I suffer it
She's with me everywhere I go
Not in person but in my heart
Reminding me that I'm alone
From dusk til dawn I suffer it
My dreams are filled with lies
She comes to me so sweetly
But I awake and face goodbye
I find that every thought I think
Resonates with her somehow
And I'd gladly give my heart away
But I don't think that's allowed
Rest assured there is no break
For those with their hearts broken
Just days and days and days of gray
And words that go unspoken
I live to love, a Romeo by verse and soul
I touch the heart and paint your world
Smile and love me for being me
Hold my hand and let us fly
The sky truly is the only limit
Don't be afraid to love me for being me
I miss you dearly in hope that your heart
will feel my call soon
Until then I await and admire you still
To you I'm jusy another one
To me you are the one
