I Miss You My Prince



I miss you my Prince

My Prince...
When will you come home again?
When will you knock at my door again?
When will you sit beside me again?
when will you whisper your loving words to me again?
When will you laugh with me again?

When will you come back to be in my hands?
When will you take me out in your hands?
When will you tease me all day long?
When will you taste of my lips again?
When will you hold me closer against your chest?

When will you make me feel as tender as your pet?
When will you make me feel as romantic as your partner?
When will you make me feel so strong and alive?
When will you tell me I am for you f-o-r-e-v-e-r?
When will I know that your absence is not f-o-r-e-v-e-r?

I cannot wait for so long and not to see you.
since i can see my reflection in you-you are my mirror
My promise... My Prince...is that...
i will give you myself, the way i desire you
and i will seek to explore you the way you desire me
and you and i, will come to that point where we see God 
I desire to hear you say, ‘I have a place in your heart’?
As I whisper back to you that, ‘you are my lord and my king’?

Since…
Each time I kiss your lips I feel delighted
Each time I look into your eyes I feel united
Each time I think about you I feel committed
Each time I am closed to you I feel attracted
Each time I am around you I feel supported

Each time we sit to talk about our love I feel excited
Each time we sit to plan our future I feel devoted
Each time you touch me I feel cared for and loved
Each time you hold me I feel secured
Each time you touch me I feel charmed

Each time you smile at me I feel at peace and relaxed 
Each time we walk side by side I feel protected
Each time I am with you I feel fulfilled
Each time I think of my love for you I feel captivated 
Each time you talk to me I feel connected and aligned

And each time I miss you I know I am bonded with you
Since you are the bone of my bone and the flesh of my flesh
And in your love for me I am joined with you soulfully
and in my love for you, you are joined with me heartily 
Sincerely, I miss you...I miss you 
My Prince… I miss you.

It's All About You



It's all about Y.O.U……..

I want to know you as you
To just be with you as you grow and mature
Into what you have chosen to become 
since Y.O.U are responsible for your choices
I don’t want to think of you from distance
I want to feel you and touch you as I embrace you 

And not the way I am thinking of you now 
But feeling you the way you are feeling now
Not the way people told me about you 
But the way you want to tell me about you
And the way you will not tell me about you
And the way you will want to let me know more about you
That will be revealing in your attitudes and deeds
moment by moment

I want to be with you in your thoughts
To feel your conflicting pains just as you feel it, now
And not the way I thought you are feeling it, now
Or the way people tell me you always feel it
Since I am aware that we have different experiences

At moment I am aware about my secret pains
So I am aware that you also have yours
Except you willingly choose to reveal them to me
there is no way i can know them
i am neither a wizard nor a witch
Since I am interested about how you feel
there will be time I'll not feel your pain 
the way you will want me to feel it
please just bear with me

I want to learn how to be with you in your soul
Since what makes you up is the soul 
you are connected to in your past
I know you have friends who are special to you
And at the same time related to you
I don’t want to break you away just like that from them

Since before I met you, you have other friend’s
You have shared with others and learn from others
So it’s not just an overnight adventure
To know you as you are, 
I know you’ll keep unfolding
Even if we get attracted and connected to each other 

As you unveil your self gradually as it pleases God and you
so let me know when to give my token of love
So that I can give a helping hand to you
So that I can give my breath and consent when you need it
So that I can give you your corresponding thoughts
Even though contrary and contradicting your expectation
so that we can share with each other our fears and doubts
And also share with each other our dreams and passion
It's all about Y.O.U.

A Child's Desire



PARENTING
We desire your prayer, a responsive heart and a gentle touch as Parent
We long after your attention, your affection and acceptance of our Attitude
We wish you accept our childlikeness and encourage us by Reciprocating
We need you to appreciate our looks and applaud our skills by Education
We want your time and your play time, a way of caring and Nurturing
We feel like holding you, loving you, trusting you and you Talking
We crave for your friendship as your presence is an Inspiration
We believe you will be there for us and help us identify our Needs
As we learn to love you and as you learn to trust us Genuinely

CHILDHOOD
Provide for him your compassionate heart and your Care
Give him a hand and a brighter tomorrow with Hope
Be interested in his intentions and seek his Interests
Teach him to love himself and respect others Love
Let him be diligent with his skills and talents as he Develops
Encourage him to believe in his hand work and be Humble
Allow him to strive for the best at every Opportunity
Help him to accept his person and assist him to be Original
Everything he perceive and sense let it be the basis of his Development

TEENAGER
Let him be taught and be trained to be Trustworthy
Let him have expectation and provide for him an Education
Let him be exposed to positive values within his Environment
Build him to become a teen in deed as he solves others Needs
Let him aspire and set goals and guide him to Achieve it
Become his friend since he need you as a Guardian angel
Let him experience your love like never before so that he will Express it
Let him know he have choice to everything and a Right to choose

ADOLESCENCE
There is a stage in human development termed Adolescence
The phase of life when teens make critical decision we call Destiny
A period of discovery and the realization of individual Originality
A time when teens should learn to listen and love Life
A season of acquiring social skills and of seeking knowledge and Education
An era of great creative opportunity and interpersonal and relational Synergy
An age of learning effective communication skill and acquiring an attitude of Care
An episode in human lifespan and a time of great enthusiasm and Exploration 
A period when teens learn how to be independent and responsible for their Needs
A time when teens remember God with their heart and follow their Conscience
A time teens sow and experience the manifestation of their great Expectation

A Child's Desire

Your Virginity Is Your Dignity



Antonnia...wise up

As God will not stop chasing you
So, Man will not stop chasing you
since she came out from him…

Now in chasing you
he uses different styles and approach 
to entice YOU
By nature he is more stimulated by sight
And what he sights inspire his taste and haste
Since by nature he is the chaser
 
They are the hunter, they are teasers
They are the preacher, they are the toaster
They are the beholder of what is beautiful
as we all echo...beauty is in the eyes of the beholder

And he cannot stop talking about you 
until he get hold of you
And he cannot stop his chase
until he get what he want
Just a response with a nod
just a smile with a yes
then a contact exchange
that's an answer for him

then he find ways to reach you
And when he get to convince you
And your conservation is cordial as he plans
if he makes a move to touch you and you accept
If you do not stop them from necking and petting

Since you are all he desire and admire
Since at your sight his urge rants to its edge
Since his intention is to quench his curiosity
he won't stop until
he sweet-talk you into his thoughts
at moment he would afford all is needed 
to get what he want from you… 
How would you know the one that’s real?

he tells you at the point of approaching you
That you are so beautiful with your sexy body
Since all he desire is that you should accept him
Since ladies desire to hear such sweet words
Don’t deceive your self 
and don’t pretend of who you are not
because you might fall into the hands of those men in your pretense

he tells you I love you, in deed few do
In return he tell you
If you love me, you’ll let me in
Just tell such guy
if he does love you he won’t ask for it
And if he loves you he will wait  for it

But when he just gets what he wants from you
What proof will you have that he loves you
When it is all over with you 
since you have satisfied his urge
more likely his performance anxiety is tested

even when you deny his advances take note
with the approach he'll use
he'll ask you…Are you the only saint?
he'll ask you are you a kid
he'll tell you others are doing it
tell him your name is not others

Since most of him believe that every woman are fun seekers
Don’t be confused stand on what you believe to the end
Since there is nothing you are missing
even if he say you are missing a lot
Because those who had falling for such trap
Are missing the joy of knowing that 
your virginity is your dignity

Antonnia...wise up

Before You Say I Do


Don’t wait for Mr. Right

Before you say “I do”
Be the Mrs. Right, don't wait for Mr. Right  
Think deeply and search through your heart
if you're the type of woman who can manage her home
if you're the type of woman who can handle her man’s emotion
if you're are not that type of lady who thinks marriage is 
Only for child bearing and for a kitchen-house wife

Hope you are not the kind of lady who has no vision 
For the kind of man she wanted and lack wisdom on how to treat men
Hope you are not the kind of lady who desire to use men as hand-bag
And forget that they may in-turn use her as a punching bag

Hope you are not the nagging type of a woman
Who her husband prefers outdoor activity than sitting by her
Or the one her husband prefer to see empty bottles than seeing her face
talk-less of listen to her ungrateful wish
Who only complain about what her husband did not do
But fail to commend on what he had done when she least expected
Who compare her husband with the neighbor’s man?
And who always compete with her man in different regard

Hope you are not the unfaithful and faithless of all women
Who is unstable in her matrimonial home
Who is not ready to stand in when things are tough and rough?
Hope you are not the kind of lady who is addicted to party
And will abandon her spouse and children at home without trace

Hope you are not that lady who snub men that come her way
Instead of listen to their talk, she is busy thinking about their purse
Hope you are not that kind of lady who her thought is in what she can get
From every men and not in what she could give to each man who are in need
And you are not that lady who snub men she think are not well-to-do
And you are not that kind of a woman who her greed for pleasure
Allows her date only those well-to-do men because of her belly

Hope you are not that kind of lady who looks down on potential men
Who make jest of men struggling on their path to rise to prominence?
Or that kind of lady who is not prepared to assist her man when there is need
But in vain waiting for those she thinks are rich and loaded with money
And you are not that type of girl who is waiting for the ready made men
Those that have built their empire without the help of any woman
But need a woman as a house wife and not a career woman.

So before you say i do
Make sure you are the Mrs. Right 
And be aware of your flaws
And don't expect any Mr. Perfect
Since he’ll not come by anyway
So think deeply before you say Yes I do

My Intimate Stranger



My intimate stranger

Why are we so far away from each others thoughts?
And we are not so thoughtful to each others needs
And we live under the same roof on the same bed
But our minds are miles apart at dead end
Withdrawn to each others shell

Why are we physically present to each others demand?
But emotionally absent to fulfill each others needs
Why are we so indifference towards each other without regard?
And we spit evil and contentious feelings in disregard

When did we got to this point of madness
How are we so blind to our state of foolishness? 
Why do we choose this attitude of thoughtlessness?
Against each other...this is our selfishness
Why all this bitterness and rudeness

See how we spit word of unkindness
To each other lately….but
Before we said “Yes I do” it was not like these?
Since we said, “Yes, I do”; where is our truthfulness
Our openness that bond us to make us say “Yes I do” 
It’s trashed under the carpet of marital pressure

Where is our fairness and faithfulness?
Where is our openness and joyfulness?
Where is our frankness
We have denied each others closeness and nearness
With our attitudes and unkind words
Forgetting to adore each others physical presence and beauty
But remembering to abuse each others mistakes at will

How did we opted for faithlessness
What has deprived us of our goodness and kindness?
We need help so we can be relieved from this madness
see as we keep bitterness where love and peace dwells
As we carry on with malice and grudges against each other
Who will deliver us from this madness and sulkiness?

I wish we were friends as we were before we got married
As we were lost in each others arm thinking of nothing else
As our heart pounds day and night towards each other
I wish we can come back to that state of intimacy
So that we could share our thoughts without conspiracy

I wish we can be passionate to each other
As we were the talk of the town
I wish we can be open in our conversation again
As we were once vulnerable and generous to one another
As we were so close to each other 
As we confide in one another

As we forgive each others mistakes
As we share each others feelings
As we give each other the space to express is emotion
As we respect one another
This convinced us, to walk to the priest
To be joined as ‘one body and one soul’ and say, “Yes; I do”.
all these i desire to explore in you

My intimate stranger

Speechless Love



Speechless love

She did not tell me she is in love, he said
Until he left her...for a lady that admires him
He did not admire her beauties in her presence, she said
If he had done that she would have accepted his offer, she said
Yet he is speechless but his heart speaks

She is in love with him in his absence
She could do anything at his absence
But so muted when she is in his presence
Now what is the essence?
Of their speechless love

He adores her beauty in her absence
And brags about her before his friends
But before her he is tongued-tie
Unable to utter his feelings for her
He is mixed about this feeling

And in her soul there is conflict
As she makes an attempt to speak
She face the panel before her friends
She never want them to know how much she is in love
Since they feel being in love with a guy
Without the guy first impression
Means she is a cheap

Now how'll she handle her emotion not to crumble?
Because she may fumble
How can she be humble?
Before him and could share those bubbles with him
She needs an answer...
Not from her friends
Since they'll label her a fool-for-love

He is out there hungry without appetite
What he only longs for is to see her face
And when he set his eyes on her
He is filled for the day
And just today...she is thinking about him
But so conformed to what people'll say

He is so devastated about his love for her
Who will help him...?
Since he can't trust any of his friends
This is not the first time his friend had betrayed him
Now down by a cross-road...he pondered what to do

Will she be approachable, he questioned
If she could listen to his heart cry, he feels
If she would come alone, he thought
If he can tell her, how he love her; he breathe
If he can touch her and kiss her, he reasoned
If he could be bold to gaze into his eyes, he pondered

She pondered, how she wish he would notice her
And he will walk up to her...and she will accept his offer
She fumes, oh why can't she walk up to him and share her feelings
With him...but so speechless to answer that...

He thinks he love her
She feels she admires him
And their friends are not helping matters
How will you help them to get over their feelings?
And reach out to each other

Few days later...
She accepted a guy who share his admiration for her
And he accepted a girl who shows her admiration for him
Yet they are still there gazing at each other...
As tears drip down their faces...just speechless
Without a word....just speechless
But their hearts speak

I'Ll Not Let You Go



I will not let you go

My love do you think I will afford to let you go away?
Just like that! 
Without questions and interrogations
without knowing the reason why you choose to walk away
you am not that kind of guy who did not care for you
i truly want to know why do you want to walk away?

Is it because of misunderstandings that is sure and 
natural occurrence in relationship
That is always bound to happen when two people come as ‘one’
Or the conflicting emotions that brings false impressions
And produces anxiety and desperation, if we deny them
who separates the teeth and tongue when they have conflict
when the teeth bite the tongue you know how painful it is

Darling I can’t afford to let you walk away from me
Due to our misinterpretation of each others emotions
due to what you think i said
due to my reactions previously
due to what i think you've done
due to your disposition yesterday 
Let’s sit down and reason together 
Disclose our thoughts, for better understanding
Of who we are and why we choose to be together

Think about all we had shared with each other
Think about all our time spent to build this relationship
Think about those who were unable to reconcile
Think about the pain they feel
Think about the guilt of unforgiveness and 
How bitter they are in their heart with regrets
Querrying, why didn't i listen and forgive then

Come to think of it.... 
Do you think we had not yet shared many things in common?
Do you think money can quantify what we had built
We spend emotion not money
Do you know what it cost us to connect to each other

The truth is that my heart can’t think of having you abandon me
As if we had no vows and promises to keep
As if we had not committed our time and energy
As if we had not devoted our emotions and wills
As if we had no tender feelings for each other 
The fact is that my soul desires you to stay with me
You are the greatest miracle that has ever happened to me.

Why I’ll not let you go is that; 
Your life has brought deep sense of love to me
Because every day I have reasons to love you more
Loving you is beyond my understanding
Yet loving you is beautiful and exciting
Loving you is romantic and painful

However I know I never deserve your love for a moment
But your love have giving me strength to conquer
Loving you has made me an over-comer
It’s so pleasant knowing you
Because you are pleasing to be with
You are pleasurable as a friend
And it is my pleasure that I have tender feelings for you

The Unwelcome Visitor



Unwelcome visitor

Unwelcome visitor
Why are you so fond of visiting?
Without invitation
At the zenith of celebration
Where everyone are in jubilation
You appear from nowhere and 
Disrupt the joyful occasion in the heart of men
You left them stranded and confused

Why are you so merciless?
Why do you choose to hurt men?
At the point of merriment
As you shatter peoples hope
What joy is that to you?
Simply snatching away their joy

Indeed at the mention of your name
People speak in tongues
Never to encounter you
Never to experience you
They pray and fast for days
Yet so invisible you are that
We all dine with you together
And smile with you when you appear

How you appear on the scene 
Nobody could fathom it
Those you use to accomplish your mission
Nobody could say it’s by their will
All we say is; it's a mistake
What we say is, it's the work of the devil
Yet you perfect your assignment
And left us to mourn in loss of our loved ones

You are a messenger so we are
But your kind of message alone brings fear and worry
Which makes people run helter-skelter to fulfill destiny
Please allow me to tell my family how much i love them
Permit me to share my love with my friends
Let me make enough money to feed them
Let me share my love to those i will naturally meet
And those that will come my way by choice

Hmm...
It was like yesterday I lost my dad in your hands
It was like yesterday you find my mum in your bosom
What a painful experience, I didn't bid him with my love
What a trauma...I was not by her when you came calling

I would have wrestle till i breathe no more
And be the sacrificial lamb...instead of my dad and mum
I would have also bargained with God
As king Hezekiah bargained with God for more 15 years
You never smiled on your mission
You are so brutal as you attain them
You don't even care about people's feelings

Before we realize your presence 
You have done the havoc
Using different strategies to achieve your aim
You are master of strategies
If you will advertise to train people on strategic thinking
I will enroll under your tutorship

You use human omission and commission
You utilize the careless situation of individuals
We call it accident
Others kill their selves
We call it suicide
We always have a name 
To give to a particular havoc you carried out through us

Since nobody knows 
When he'll die or who's next
Or who'll kill him

Where he'll die
Or why he must die at that time

How he'll die
Or what kind of death'll he visit

What Went Wrong



What went wrong?

Before both was co-creator of the human race
And were co-equal, in nature of their person and unique in function
As they co-exist in harmony as the co-creator of the family unit
As he said, you are the bone of my bone and the flesh of my flesh
And she shall be called woman, he said…
And for this reason dating and courtship was ignited
And thus leading to the Marriage institution
 
Until she made a fatal decision so we heard
That caused the rift and then the fall so we learned
By eaten the ‘forbidden fruit’ so we were informed
And he made matters worse by his attitudes so we read 
By his blames and excuses when he was questioned
In the role she played and the role he played

And the rift led to a separation 
And the separation led to suppression
And the oppression of the feminine power was actualized
Through fret and fear
And forcefully rule without her consent
Because the male considers the female a foe 
In every, aspect and precept of life endeavors…

He took over the duty of the family and the public life
Allowing her to be passive in decision making 
as he considers her as inferior to him
When in the beginning she was proactive...but at moment
Enslaved to him as culture dictates in favor of him

His physical presence was a threat to her
She is without freedom to make a choice 
Seen as a second-class citizen over the years 
Position such as housewife was tagged with her
When she possesses similar creative power such as the male 
But was denied by the fearful nature of the male ego

Who will loose her from this bondage of ancient years?
As she is dominated by the fear of the male ego
Except the maker turns back the hands of time…since
Without her, he is a slave to the pressure of public life
Without her, he cannot ultimately fulfill his life adventure

As she cries…she agonize in pain…in her heart she bleeds
Why can’t she be loved again…why can’t she be trusted again?
Why still judging her by the past…why resisting the power she’d offer 
Why can’t he accept her the way she is and love her the way he is
Since it is in his nature to admire her and chase her
And without her fulfilling her purpose as a female…he is damned

Because nothing else can fill the void of the female-energy in his life
Neither wine…nor money...nor cars…nor drugs…nor mansions
She’s an indispensable gift to him as God is to him
She is an Angel to entertain by him
A Miracle worker in disguise like him
Since he'll always crave for her each day
And always delight in her everyday.
