Khalid Afolabi Poem
blue skies long boats
trees withstanding wheels with ropes
standing there watching with hope
that it doesnt choke
as it dangles around its neck like a jacket on a cloak
jump in the blue sea and float
my freinds atoms and isotopes
give me the antidote as bubbles rise to make h20
water are you my freind or my foe
as im deep under i flap my hands up up and away i go....

Khalid Afolabi Poem
were at a quilted crossroad
why not lie there with me
and watch paper unicycles go by while listening to owl city
this doesnt feel real but i knew it was when a teardrop escaped from your cry
but luckily it fell and i caught it in the palm of my hand just in time
and right there you lay your pouted lips on mine and suddenly it felt like i was in
summertime
it didnt feel like we were in a situation
i felt like we fell in love at the right destination
coz all our thoughts blew away with the wind
and then it felt like we couldnt lose the slot machine tripled win
and all that could have happened was if time froze
and on your body lay a rose
coz then its sleep time and the scene is set for a quilted crossroad....

Khalid Afolabi Poem
you stole my heart away like a dying patient
you stole that first kiss and you had my heart racing
you stole my blue sweater i stood there half naked
you grinned and whispered in my ear
this was all makeshift
you lay your hand on my shoulder the softest of touches
while in the mirror lipstick and blushes
I carry you and mess up your hair on the bed
and look into your eyes knowing i can do this everyday of my life
again and again.....
