The Lonely Road To Fufillment

Share an opportunity And spare me the pity Otherwise, leave me be As I follow where my heart leads When a man seeks fulfilment He's on his way to greatness For in doing what he loves best He'll find a treasure chest Please spare me the pity I'll find way around the city Not sure how far I can go But I trust blindly in nature's flow You only live once, they say This is how I've chosen to live mine And if this night doesn't turn to day I'll resign to fate and God divine

Just A Click Away

As Rebecca drove to work, she couldn't help but smile. Just a night ago, she'd wished Monday away into non-existence so she could have a long rest after having one of the most amazing hangouts with her best friend Bolu. From playing volleyball at the beach shore to horse riding, the night was capped with two great hours of dancing at the club. They both knew they had to be at work on Monday but nobody cared. The call that lifted her spirit came at about 4am, just after she snoozed her alarm for the fourth time that morning. She was just too tired to get ready for work. Still groggy from sleep, she picked the call and heard his voice. That deep sensual voice that always strums the strings of her heart whenever it filled her ears. It was her diaspora lover calling. He was coming to town! She smiled all the way through work that day, pumped with adrenaline and completing every task with the speed and accuracy of a machine. After work, Rebecca was knackered. From her office w...

Can We Be More Than Friends?

Can we be more than friends till the end.... We like each other and from time to time have crossed each other’s borders. Nothing in this world can make us bother as long as we have each other. We’re just friends. You finish my sentences and I can predict your very next move. With me there’s absolutely no need for pretense neither are there any points to prove. We’re just friends. I spend more time talking with you than with my partner and so do you, though unconsciously yet deliberately. All our mutual friends believe we’re an item, or at least we should be and we come up with a lot of complex theories and expectations to counter them. Can’t they just understand that we’re just friends….we say to each other. Our individual relationships have died natural deaths as a result of negligence and absent-mindedness on our parts. We’ve tried all we could to salvage the situation and try to make them understand that we don’t understand why they can’t understand that we just tag...

The Attack

THE ATTACK The moon gave way for the sun, The latter had tired from its night duty, Light announced a new day had begun, Bestowing upon the land beauty, Another opportunity presented itself, For the bird to finish its nest, For man to refill his shelf, Each embarking on some quest, Everything seemed perfect, Until the minions arrived, So discreet nobody would suspect, Watching their victims where they hived, Then the rain started, Not of water-drops from the sky, But of bullets from termination gadgets, Cascading everywhere within eye-sight, The green-land turned crimson, Vultures had more than a month's feast, Without rhyme or reason, A waste was made of lives by a beast, Mothers wailed for their children, Children had been rendered fatherless, For nothing could console them, As they watched their future being destroyed under duress. by @theslimbloke
