Untill She Finds the Strength To Speak Again
A drag of another cigarette the nicotine courses through my veins,
It's not dope but it'll have to do, it's true the effects are not the same,
It distinctively lacks the same power, same danger, the elation of the adrenaline and euphoria,
Instead, I'm left to exhale smoke filled self-pity,
Envy causing my mute mind

Untill Then
When water
desert
The river
basin
And tree
deserts
The forest.
When light
desert
The burning
lamp
And
whiteness
desert
The snow.
When breeze
deserts
The blowing
fan
And wetness
desert
The tongue.
When spines
desert
The citrus
tree
And blood
desert
The heart.
When lines
desert
The elders'
palm
And fruit
desert
The orchard.
When hills
desert
The Ekiti land
And
Remembrance
desert
The Hero.
When sand
deserts
The hourglass
And picture
deserts
The mirror.
Then,
words can
Desert
our pen!

Untill I Arrive
Stunning yourself,
after setting ablaze,
circumbulating the tied down god in center,
you start a death dance
for the wasted limbs. How far the
self-immolation was justified
for the young pond of hyacinths ?
And as I moved away from this stupidity,
the rains arrived to fill the streams;
glaciers decided not to melt away.
Time stopped me in my tracks to hold
my pen firmly

New Year, New Start.. Untill One Thought (Unfinished)
A new year means a new start
A chance to mend a once broken heart
Being brave and taking part
Trying this year to not fall apart
Things seemed to be going well
On things from last year i did not dwell
I learnt to stop and not to yell
But then i remembered our last farewell
Untill this point things

Untill the Day I Die
my love is the wind
it carries your name to the ear.
it whispers things in the breeze
while blowing the flowers i planted for you
it whips the chocolates, you gave me
and carries the scent to thee

Untill Daybreak Do Us Apart
The stars!
So light!
So bright!
Oh, how it paints the night!
The moon!
So round!
So sound!
For it glows this life i've found!
This Night!
So dark!
So marked,
Upon my newly found heart.
To wish night could restart,
Untill daybreak do us apart.

Untill We Don'T Need Dreams Any More
I love the way your hair shines in the sun,
How I can look at you and forget to ever be sad,
Looking deep into your eyes and seeing a galaxy of dreams,
The texture of your shaggy hair,
Shaping of your hands,
Fraiming of your smile,
The same green jacket you always wore,
Caracter that held me close,
Each day that passes
