Yesterday I Cried...

ok, i didn't really cry but hey if i did, this is where i'd be writing it in. I write a lot of poetry and songs and things like that that sometimes you feel like sharing just to let it all out. Sometimes I might just write about my day how i'm feeling and the general goings on. So it'll be like an emotional outlet which i direly need right now. Maybe until Oga Sola adds a poetry forum anyway..........



All my poems are copyrighted............my songs are copyrighted under ASCAP and SOCAN.

Ok, I'll start off with Six Train Destiny. I wrote this poem on a freaking train of all places. There was this HOT dude that used to walk by me every bloody day and everyday I want to just reach out and grab him and just give him on long, juicy, come-hither kiss. But rather i'd just shyly look up and then look down and pretend my ovaries weren't quivering at mere site of him. Anyway wrote this poem was gonna give him the next day but I had to change my train (from the 6pm) so I never saw him again.................

Six Train Destiny

Maybe today
I'll have the courage to say
Feel you walking my way
Something inside of me sways
And I don't know you
But to show you
The visions I have of you
Moving your hands slowly upwards my spine
As I writhe in your arms, you slip into my charms
Baby deeper I chant, feel me shiver inside
Until it fades, then your face
As you pace, right past me, damn, can u catch me?

Last time I fell passionately in love I wrote this..............i still remember the emotions I felt and how complete and wonderful and all encompassing I thought it would be. I wrote this in 2003.

Untitled
I want to give myself to you so totally that in doing so I will become of you
Under the safety of your love I want to soar and explore the stars above
Endlessly moving in the rythym of your thoughts
I want to get lost in the magic of this love

Now this last one is not a poem at all but one of the first songs I ever wrote. It's like my baby but i'll premiere it here first without the melody unfortunately! I wrote it about the same guy as above, also in 2003.

Help Me Out
I want to tell y'all about this love
It's got me weak, I cannot lie
Every touch is like the first time
Every kiss is like expensive wine
And when he holds me I don't want to let go
The things he's saying are just touching my soul
I never ever felt like this before
This crazy feeling it must be love
Help me out y'all

See he understands my ups and down
He's on my mind when he's not around
Just one look and i'm falling hard
And I know this just the start
I see my future looking in his eyes
I'm wondering what it's like to have his child
I never ever felt like this before I tell ya
This crazy feeling it must be love
Help me out y'all

Ok, here's a poem that I wrote apparently dedicated to some guy named Bruno. Now who is Bruno???? He was this kid who was the topic of a 20/20 show I saw perhaps in 2000. He was caught up in the system and even though he wants to get out, people keep pushing him back in. The segment ended with a shot of Bruno in jail, and the camera zooms in on his eyes and they were so empty, so devoid of hope, but yet full of longing. He compelled me to write this.

Unfinished
Hear my voice
Listen to my cries
Is my soul the prize
Is my heart for barter
They told me this was my America
And slap me deaf with tales of liberty
But now I sit in the hole you created
Behind the bars my blood build
Yet my voice remains silent
My cries less resilent
So I surrender to this emptiness
This nothingness, this worthlessness
Created for me, exclusively by you

I wrote this next one about a month after my father died of pancreatic cancer. The stats for pancreatic cancer are: 33,000 people contract it per year in America, 30000 people die from it per year. The survival rate 5 years after diagnosis is 4%. The average rate of survival after diagnosis is 6months. My wonderful father fought it for almost 3 years until November 24, 2004. A miracle in itself.

I wrote this poem after dealing with family wahala after someone dies. The fakeness of it all. The chaos. The chief mourners et al. The ugliest part of humans come out in nigerians after a death.

And No One Came
Tongues wagged
Fingers clapped
Teeth gnashed
Mouths wailed
In the dark
As the veil cometh
And all was silenced
A soul yearned
But no one came

Hollow laughter
Snickers after
Raucous banter
Lazy chatter
In the night
As the thief trumpet
And all was guarded
A spirit called
But no one came

Now he roams
Now he knows
Now they fret
Now regret
The thief is blind
The veil is neigh
Who now will come?
When next it calls?

Ok, this poem I wrote March 1. 2004. I don't think it's about anyone in particular. I believe i was just inspired reading someone else's poem. I liked the style of the poetry and decided to try it. Her poem was about physical abuse but I used her style to write this one. It's sorta what someone might be thinking when their lovers ask them "what do u want" as all lovers do when they are falling.

I want u to
Hold me
Caress me
Kiss Me
Drink me in like fine wine
I want u to
Part my legs
Peak into my core
Fill my emptiness
With your steadiness 'til i
shake rattle and roll
I want u to
Whisper then
Softly hum, then
Rock me gently
Till I drift away
Memories of the present
As you trickle down my thigh
leaving a trail, it's mark
I want u to
leave me a note the next day
saying how good it was
How sweet it was
How you're thinking of me
At this moment, this second
I want u to
Admit it ain't never been like this
Never loved like this
Never scared like this
so desperate to ask me
Quietly, consciously
What do u want me to do?

I wrote this one when i was going through a whirlwind(not in a good way) time with an "ex" whom i'll just leave at "O". It was written on Oct. 29. 2002. The day I "caught" him with this other lady.

Blinded by my desire
I walked to you naked
Boldly, unashamedly
You should have told me then
Why walk into a lion's den
Lika fool, uncovered
Like a fool
