Black sunny day (June 3rd, 2012)

Terror befell them suddenly
Grievance is switched on
Tear lost its control
Many ran out of hope
Everything is sincerely gloomy
Just on a suppose bright and sunny-day

Don't fetch water from the river
Blood has taken over it
Becareful of the air
... Nothing is fresh and healthy in it today
In ds my darling country
Today,air has err all Nigerians

Oh God I need deliverance for my money
Their possessed money had bought them death
Our land are soiled with blood
Yeepa! Pains unspeakable
Only God is needed here for a difference!
My tearful pen is tired

My brain is echoing
As if I could hear them screaming just as death suddenly boarded with them
My body is shivering
I wondered how they spent the few minutes before their lives were up
Helplessly they breathe their last

Sweetheart Country,who is stabbing you this way everyday?
Rejoicing in your pains and sorrow?
Disguising in the name of Boko Haram and Dana airline?
Who gave a sick bird the order to fly healthy people?
Boko Haram agent in Dana or ...?

My lovely country,
Where have they taken your sunshine?
Now all you get is gloom,doom,boom,bomb
Nigeria,how come you now see sorrow?
You speak terrorism!
You bear disaster!
You act tragedy!

Tears is in the air!
God creator of the air
Pls give us fresh air to breath in this our beloved country!
Give a better ground to stand on
The one we are is just a sinking ground
Help us our Creator lest we all perish!

Heartbroken

Tears drop
Fear grips
Heart pierced
Promises broken
Memories splash
Plans crashed
Bold scars
Dashed hopes
Sour love
Sorrowful look
Wasted years
Beautiful moments
Romantic trips
Expensive gifts
All gone

Closed eyes
Flashing back
Sweet times
Endless seems
He came
She came
Embraced me
Betrayed me
Erased me
Forgot me
Sad thoughts
Spilled milk
Too late

Be calm
Be sure
Be careful
Be prepared
Try again
Love again
Don't hate
Love exists
Don't argue
Trust again
Jittery sucks
But don't
Keep loving
Still loving
Are you?

Sad

This is to all the sadness
The world's madness
Hold on, don't let go
In the end real colors show
Media hides the foe
I know
I'm praying for you tonight
This is to all who lost thier mothers
Sisters who lost thier brothers
To everybody losing one another
I'm praying for you tonight
This is to all those who got it hard
Orphans, the homeless and the needy
Living life as a living hell
Coming down with all the rest that fell
Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Yemen
The Whole Arab World
I'm praying for you tonight
All those going through the struggle
Everyday got to make a hustle
I'm praying for you tonight
To get an inch, you gotta walk a mile
All you want is a penny or a smile
Hoping for it to be a better in a while
Hanging on there like a lily on the Nile
I'm praying for you tonight
Looking at all those who live on the street
Making it each day with nothing to eat
I swear, tears fall down from my cheek
I Feel like falling right down to my knees
I'm praying for you tonight
That this phase will speedily fade away!

Faded light

Faded light
As the day emerges and seems trough,
I grow ever wary of what I do.
I start to contemplate of things that I said,
So tormenting, they unfold from my head.

I bring to mind the time when we had no beat,
Hanging on, not giving in to defeat.
No matter what surfaced on our way,
As long as we were together we would be ok.

But then the atmosphere gave way for our nightmare,
The last flash of joy and the creation of despair.
For our chain to be shattered so easily by a mere fight,
Is what makes me regret why I thought we were alright.

Now we wither away alone and full of remorse,
Our hearts lost and blinded all thanks to divorce.

The widow

Over time things change, but never the heart,
can't seem to move on, still torn apart.

Offers to marry, someone to take care of the two,
I'll never be a good wife, to none other than you.

I still cry at night, when the babies lay rest,

Heard your face was bright, filled with light
I wish I could've seen you
on that crazy night.
To see for myself, what I pray is true,
a beautiful man seeing his life anew.

She asks for you, out of the blue
What can I say? but that we will see him soon,
"daddy's taking too long"
I tell her look at the moon.

God made that, and you and me,
he took daddy, just let things be.
One day soon we will see,
another time, another place,
and then we'll be free.

Don't be sad loving, Daddy's here
I point to her heart
and tell her don't fear.

We are all still in pain
I just sit starring at the rain.

What do I say and what do I do,
I keep trying to figure out things
but I'm always blue.

Grateful to God, that He is in our lives,
without Him I know I would never be able to survive.

Pain and tears,
but hope for Bliss
even still,
its you I miss.

On this lonely path

On a lonely path I found me
Alone I needed a companion
Looked out,none was gotten
Busy people too big to be friendly
Little dirty girl with no care
Who could have wished to be closer
When the forest is quite and still
I am already lurking somewhere to tilt
All the farming seasons I knew and endowed with customers
who will use me till the end of the season
My life was by myself
I needed a friend
The search began,the thinking grew
Not until my pen beckoned at me
It encouraged me to get a paper
The writing started,my ink kept flowing
The diary of a lonely girl
Day after day I fill in my stories
On those pages,I put my worries
On this lonely paths....
Growing took me forever
Especially when there was no lover
Alone,I grew smarter
My life was a broken glass
Many fragments to pick
Here and there with life's trick
As I grow in knowledge
I realised I already hav an edge
With what I call a diary
I am a poet to be celebrated soonest
All on this lonely path!

Law of Karma

Sore throat from trying to hold back the tears.
shaking hands that rest on her heart.
Sitting on the same chair for years.
Her loved ones so very far apart.

The clock is ticking and the weather is unfriendly.
The sun she once played in was grey and gone.
She never thought that it hurt like this to be old.
She never knew if she'd make it till dawn.

Her five children that she lovingly rared.
Where nowhere at all to be seen.
This feeling she had that none of them cared.
She was at the lowest point she'd ever been.

She wept alone in the house her children had paid for.
She witnessed the cruel thanks for all her hard work.
She ate food of a prisoner and would collapse on the floor.
Her only company in the corner,was where her shadow would lurk.

The day came when she felt an awareness.
The darkness lifted from her mind.
She was overwhelmed and almost careless.
And to sorrow she was blind.

Her soul had left her body and she felt more alive than the living.
Her hurt and pain were at an end and she was more than relieved.
She was done with all the cruelty of age and the grief that she was given.
All the injustice and neglect she most certainly received.

Now sleep and rest with God knowing all your hurt.
Smile and know that from all your pain you gained peaceful wait.
Your children weep as they see your body buried in the dirt.
But where were they when you cried out through that house wit big black gate?

But woe to them who forget their elders, and fathers and mothers.
Woe to them who ignore their every whim.
We must value them as precious jewels, like them there are no others.
Seek their prayers and pray for them for this life is much too dim.

And when you grow old and wither all your petals, be very sure to know.
That life is not complete till what goes around comes around.
And when the kids get tall and their bright eyes glow.
They too will leave you in a room,
then weep when you meet the ground.
