Lulu Nosika Poem
Friday nights are the nights to show
dat you have been slaving all week.
The nights where all the shining bits
and pieces come out. Ladies talk in
loud gale voices, showing off new
dresses and shoes they can hardly
walk in. When guys pretend that
they own d town screaming 'money
aint a thing'! But den we all know
that every quid made within d week
jumps out the window. Bar hoping is
the theme of the night, loud music
and lumpy bodies swaying to the
beat. Hardly are the lyrics heard and
off key is it always reproduced. My
favourite part is watching the
unbelievable amount of alcohol
consumed. This nearly always
creates this belief of invisibility. Then
it happens, the first vomit for d
night. Some unlucky cleaner is going
to be cursing his mind off soon. Its
almost 3am, the magic moment
when you remember you are in the
age of technology.....cell fone! Aha!
One of the little wonders of some
dumb but smart fool's brain wave.
The call for the ride home after
tripping over almost every
miraculously propped up curb.
Unlucky day and you find yourself on
d floor blaming everybody but your
careful self! Another night well
spent, and tomorrow comes with the
well earned hang over. But for now
all that matters is you made d best
of your weekly wage! Kudos! Shite!
Totally forgot, the rent is due by the
moro! You best just drink a little
more and block the thought of the
caretaker!

Lulu Nosika Poem
Minus 200 points she thought! How
disgusting he could be, clinging to
his older ones like he wasn't old
enough to make his decisions
himself. Let's wait for them he said,
like choosing between rice and pasta
will change d world. Give them
space she said, hating d puppy dog
movement, despising d very fact
that she couldn't take a step without
him thinking he was straying too far
from the clan. U grumble too much
he said, but immediately agrees
when the others said d same as she
had. Now its decision time, how
much can she truly take?? She's had
enough of been tied to someone
that was holding on for his dear life
at his mother's apron.

Lulu Nosika Poem
U are one of the reasons why some
women are barren, with God looking
at people like you that he gave
children and u av failed miserably to
guide and protect them. You are
one of the reasons why we see the
streets littered with runaway kids
looking for a better life. To them
anything is better than what you
have shown them as life. You are
one of the reasons why there are so
many damage adults walking
amongst us as our brothers, sisters,
mothers, fathers, friends, bosses.
You are one of the reason why our
young ladies sleep with anybody and
everybody just for a min or two of
love and compassion. You are part
of the rot that smells in our society
today, that smell that just won't go
away. You are part of that secret
pain and shame we hold in our
hearts that stings and draws tears to
our eyes. You are part of the
reasons why a little child's face is
wrinkled with hopelessness. You
were created to be the best gift any
child should have but discover as
just another poison ivy. You are the
worse possible kind of traitor, for
your type of betrayal is beyond low.
You hurt for your pleasure and seek
to destroy. You don't stop until the
damage is irreversible. U seek to
justify your doings, telling yourself
that you know better for you have
been here longer but what you don't
know is that time changes
yesterday. May you rest your heart
at night knowing that the table may
turn on you in the morning. May you
taste that which you dish out so
mercilessly. May you hold scars of
wounds so deep you never forget
that which you have done. You are
the painful memories of our future.

Lulu Nosika Poem
Another day gone in history with no remarkable print in history to be remembered by. Night time, the only time I get the opportunity for that five minutes of sweet escape. In my mind, visions of you, me, us is as real as the bed I lie on. That five minutes when I can actually taste your sweet dark chocolate taste with no reservation, no shame just euphoria. Strong, dark and powerful with the feel of individuality. Authenticity describes that which I savour mixed with a good helping of originality making reality seem dull. Heighten senses as awareness of the surreal becomes real. Pleasure to touch even for the briefest moments of lips that might never know each other. Intense rush of emotions I cannot describe as we inter twine as one only for a second. Seconds which leaves satisfied feelings for a life time. Your voice which is only audible to me, ever caressing places the flesh has never been before with words so deep, it draws tears to my eyes. My soul craving more of you, these feelings, fulfilment. Lost within moments as sleep steals me away from you once more. We shall meet again when the night comes once more.

Lulu Nosika Poem
Some term it as choking, but I see
it differently. When it hurts this bad,
it feels like you are drowning.
Nothing seems to be working. All
roads leads to doom and gory.
Funny how I never once saw light
ever. Does that mean that there
isn't an end to this tunnel? Who do I
lean on? Who do I cry to? Feels like
been a pawn on a chess board,
knowin u are bound to meet an
unfavourable end.

Lulu Nosika Poem
Its one of those cold days you just don't ignore, Still but it stings. On my way out of town but with the daunting thought that I must return by dusk. Aching for myself and my friend that has shown me so much love over the year as to the point that our pain merges and yet not enough strength to bear the burden. Constantly tearing up with the thought of my own burden, I was not prepared for those words when he said them" my mother has got cancer". I felt the bottom of my world breaking away once again for the millionth time within the space of six months. Devastated does not begin to describe my pain. The good ones always go first, why?? Is it not enough that we suffer? Is it not enough that we are broken? Where is the justice in further suffering? I have not enough tears left for one more burden, not enough room on my fragile shoulder to lift one more load. My dearest friend know that I love you and will pray with you for her. I will be there for you, yes my friend we shall lift this burden together.

Lulu Nosika Poem
And the four seasons of loneliness
just keeps on interchanging while
little by little I feel it ebbing away on
what's left of what use to be me.
With little or no fight left in me to
stop it, I can feel the cold drops of
tears falling. My soul hollow and
filled with despair. Scars from
previous fights- some won, some
lost- covering my heart. Finally
breaking under a burden too heavy,
I finally lift up my white flag with
shame. So this is how my story
ends?
