True Tune of My Heartbeat

You are  everything I dreamt of
Every stars that galaxies light 
You are the wishes I want to be born with 
I don't know if you feel it too 

Whenever I closed my eyes 
See you sitting besides me 
Love do overgrown in me
Who knows if you feel it too

Do you know that I have swallowed many jewel saliva 
Look into my bleeding face design with  tears 
Honey please don't deny
Will you treat me the same 

People are made for another 
Many are good at breaking ones heart 
Few love for ever
 How how about us 

You are a star in my poetic sky 
The true tune of my heartbeat 
Your love overgrown wings 
As months fastsly runs to a new year

I am like a colorful bird you might have seen on flight
The early bird that sings into softy ear
The sun that shines through your inner beat 
Will you offer me that true love and affection he deserve?

Serene of Your Beauty Tells

In the gentleness of this breeze 
I sense hope and grateness 
True affection and emotion 
Like the world is forever mine 

Looking into your eyes 
The siren of your beauty tells 
All queens are graciously made
Honey you are graciously and beautifully made in the garden of all queens 

At first the emotions seems asleep 
Today it's been awakened 
I have come not to leave but to stay
You are the rainbow I've been drawing since birth

Mummy and friends said I am mean 
Honey you studied me and convinced them 
By putting your untested saliva on my mouth 
Redesign me and put thousand smile on my frown face 

You are the jewel that brought out the real me in me
Never cease to present your golden presence 
Watching you speak with many smiles on your face 
Is my soul ecstasy and fantasy 

An angel escaped from heaven 
Angel without wings and with countless power 
You are the roses of three light glittery tree in my poetic garden 
No doubt saying you  are my menera muse.

My Immaculate Mother

Dear Mother of Jesus and mother of mine
I lifted up my eyes,see the angels 
Reciting your holy hymns 
Teach me about your holy heart
Pray for holy mother and sweet Jesus 
For your love been tasted are beautiful
Have found your miraculous light
Help me to say my Rosary

Dear Mother of Jesus and mine
Though can't see you with my Earthly eye
Hold me and treat me well
In your hand lies my soul
Keep me forever save in this blood ocean World
Sing for my sinful heart to be free 
And let your words remain immortal in my life

Dear mother of Jesus and mine
I do see your beautiful face
Whenever day begins 
You are always with me
I love you so much mother
Please tell your son I love him too.

Why Now

Why must it be now

The day we met
With promises deeper than ocean
We never think of loosing each other
But today you broke this golden covenant
My love,queen of our heart why must you do this to me?

I thought this day could never be
Sleeping without you by my side
After promising ourselves better days,
Yet you went ahead and break this sparkling golden heart

Even if you wishes to tear it into pieces
My Queen why must it be now
With all the pains you and I went through 
Just to defend our togetherness and love for each other

Have you forgotten all the sacrifices you made just to keep our love strong
Can't forget all the moon midnight stories you do share with me
The story of the two loving Birds 

You've been with me all through this hard time
You go hunger,put on rags,sleep with me here in uncarpeted floor
You never give up
Why must it be now?

I suffered you a lot yes I know
My inability to be taking you to shoprites like other rich Gee's
But why suddenly change of mind
When all our prayers has been answered
Just few steps to Paradise

You left with no reasons
My heart bleeds seeing your dismissal
You tear my poems,told me not to call you again
Even when I tried to,you cut off my call,switched of your phone

Just wants to let you know that you are forever in my heart
Our sweet bitter memories always in my mind
Only a question keeps on hurting me
Even if you wants to leave me
Why must it be now?

November Queen

My November Queen 

He was like a tree, moved by breeze
Been alive to witness that perfect day 
My queen, Angel and Muse came to this Earth
There is countless joy in my heart

Yesterday, you came to this Earth 
After many months and days expectations 
After havy pains mum went through 
Like a warrior you encounter and conquer 
That blissful womb

You were celebrated yesterday, but the memory of it still in my heart
You are kind, gifted and intelligent
May and June girls claims to be intelligent and brave people
But I been convinced that November Queens are most intelligent

January and February queens said they are most caring being ever exist on Earth 
But honey, non are as caring as you are
What of July August, most beautiful slay queens, dear you beyond beauty measures 

You were celebrated yesterday,I join them today to celebrate you too
You will glitter, sparkle twinkle in your poetic jungle 
Good morning with good health 
Good noon with prosperity and academic excellence 
Let your evening be bless with your hearth desires that are not evil 
Dedicated to; 
My November queen.

Poem From My Soul

There is multiple colors behind rainbows
Greatness in every failure 
Your little smiles and kisses is my secret
For you've showed your true love to little me
Giving your heart so deep than any ocean man could think of

You make me smile while crying
Can't forget the love and kisses you gave 
Smiles you painted in my face 
Honey you are indeed my choosy heart 
No retreat,can't say goodbye


Keeping memories of you and I 
Can't forget the good and bad once 
For that I vow to love thee forever 
In deepest ocean of my heart lives thee forever
I'll be loving you to the very end

No Prince and princess in our gene 
Have got you my muse and forever Queen
 Please always stand by my side
I don't want say goodbye
I want feel the joy of love again

I love you 
Yes I do
And forever will love you
Open your heart let me show how strong love is
Sleep with my words,let the world hears our story
For you are the only joy I ever known.

Death Has Done No Harm

If we cry gently silently 
What we shall one day have to say
Death has done much harm 
To we mere plant in the divine garden 

If we do away with our falling father's will
If we praise this bad government 
Fear growing in us like green leafs 
Who will hear us without laughter 

If we pretend to be called what we are not 
Pains burning in our inner heart 
So afraid tell say our minds
Who shall we blame of,death?

If we hope to hear from them again 
With thunderous voices from above 
Just as our ears were deaf
Who will hear our pitiful desire without laughter 

If we wait for them to teach us their ways 
Not listening to the sea, sky and air where they placed their signs 
What we shall one day have to tell
With the black depth of our dirty throats 
Death has done much harm

If we fight our fight,die regaining what belongs to us
Leaving all fallacy and fantasy behind 
All, shall one day praise the dead
With heart full of joy shall we say 
Death you've done no harm.

Poem For My Muse1

There is nothing I can do without you 
As moon can't perfectly gives light without stars by it's side 
You are the dream I been waiting for it's reality 
Honestly, we are meant to be,and I will always be there for you  

Though been silent for a while 
Just thinking on how to make dreams reality 
Read through my heart and face 
Can't withstand the pains of been without you

Whenever you see me working up dawn,do remember my words 
Can't make a complete being with you by my side 
Please Oluchukwu just have this on your spotless heart 
You are the sunshine and water in my garden,real life in my poetic dream 

You are more than anything I could think of
More colorful and beautiful than  Eastern rainbow 
You are brighter than anything that galaxies light 
Real vision in my poetic mission 

Can't withstand the wave of this stormy Earth 
Do call it love when you see my words placed in your heart
When loneliness and shyness seems awakened 
Look up to the sky, sea and tree there I placed 
my signs

Oluchukwu just know that we are meant to be 
No distance and weaknesses can bridge it out
The days are bad,as it rains heavily deep in my heart 
Please come to my rescue, embrace me for an hour or two
Let me forever be alright.

Words of a Dying Poet

Words of a dying Poet

My queen now I am near to my grave
Please have this last word of mine
I have lost my visual gift yes you know
My born as weak as a melting rubber
Please have this last word of mine
Bury it in your heart 

I am a warrior, has fought many battles
I am a dreamer,and you know that
Please have this last word of mine 
Be a dreamer that dreams beyond sight 
Go after your heart 
Be your self, and do your best

We've been together for some decades now
Yes the truth must be said, not in the grave
You are the best among the rest
Surely shall you glitter twinkle sparkle 
Your pen is your strength make good use of it
Goddess is what you are, the power is yours 

My queen do remember this my last word 
For I am once a dreamer and good  thinker like you
You have that paradise in you
Build it now,if really you want live a holy life 
Go after your heart I said again

I am weak, my hair has turn grey
My eyes has gone back to my skull
I no longer breath as required
Only three teeth remain in my mouth
My tongue has lost its power of taste
All parts of my body has  gone before me 
Resting in my tomb waiting for my arrival 

I am here and there
My body is here but, my spirit is there 
Will soon join my ancestral train 
Back to a new home, with new body
But the truth must be said now, not in my grave 
Do all I said and the world will forever be yours
Bye until we meet in that  holy palace.

Failed Promises

Failed promises 

You promised to love me more than I do
Treat like a child
Handle my heart like an uncooked egg
Not to listen to any foes

You promised to accept life defeat,to prove immortality of our love
Be with me,even at the peril time
Never to leave my side 
Not to hurt me like others 

You promise to drag down moon before my feet
Take me to that hiding paradise
Be my estacy and forever fantasy  
All this promises was made in the morning 
Hurts me most,seeing all been failed before noon.
