DELIVERANCE

Excuse me Mr. Editor but let me defile your paper with poetic grease
These will be the thoughts to remember coz i have a plan to decease
They say heaven is not promised to sinners so I'll raise my own hell
For death awaits me in the dark corners where my enemies dwell
In the still of the night, stars shine, guns crack and souls die
Some sleep with smiles and some fear to close their eyes
Wet dust gathers in the brains of our next generation
They inhale deceitful knowledge while all they need is the herb for thorough education
Wisdom is a curse to fools who read a few lines and claim to know
Honesty is free, shame the devil and tell the truth, it won't kill 2say u dont know
In my lifetime my soul never slept cos darkness shades my stance
Sometimes I hold on sometimes I succumb to the trappings of depression
I smoke weed for escapism no more about chasing a thrilling sensation
No one can save me now
My gurdian angel overdosed on grief and commited suicide
The confusion inside and the cancerous blood running in my veins makes my soul divide
Excuse me Mr. Editor if my poetic grease becomes an eternal stain on ur pages
I say that when a prophet loses his wings a society loses its eyes

Numb Head

Sometimes my head goes numb!
sometimes my head goes numb!
For staring too long at the phone
Hoping you would call
Or even still just text
But all I get is silence;
Yes Silence.
sometimes my head goes numb!
when I refresh my inbox a 1000 times
Hoping to find mail from you
But all I get is an empty inbox;
"0 unread mails".
sometimes my head goes numb!
When I pass by your place
hoping to catch a glimpse of you
Hoping you might atleast say something
But all I see are closed curtains;
windows tightly shut.
sometimes my head goes numb!
when instead of listening to you
I stare deep into your dark eyes
Hoping you would see my longing
But all I see is my own reflection;
reflected back.
But the more I try to move on,
the more I try to let go
The more I realize
that my head has grown numb;
Completely numb!
cause am in Love with you!

Words in My Head

Funny how life changes
When we met we were strangers
Then we became lovers
We made many promises
But one was never kept
Because we are far apart
Words are in my head
But cannot come out of my mouth
This is the only way I know how
How to say what is in my head
I know we both do not hate each one another
Because we used to date each other
I appreciate every moment we shared
Coz nothing we did was bad
I never told you some few things
Things that would make us
And not break us
Yes – I thought about family too
Yes – I thought about us growing together too
But it was all in my head
And this is the only way I know how
How to say what is in my head
As much as you think I made you
The truth is that You made me
I knew nothing about courtship
Until you invited me to your life
Although we never made it to the altar
The thought of me taking you down the aisle
Will always be embedded in my head
I had thought that someday things would be back to normal
That was just a thought
Because I know normal does not exist in this world
I had thought that someday you would be the mother to my kids
That was also just a thought
Because I am somebody else's father
And you are the mother to somebody else's child
Call me stupid I do not care
These words are all in my head
And this is the only way I know how
How to say what is in my head
It is through this white page with black inscriptions on it
You will always be the love of my life.
