Struggle

By
Half way up the mountain
Snow capped peak beckoning
Parched, wineskin dry, no fountain
Base so far. No returning
My heart longs for both
Quizzically. What's the solution
Stone set, unchangeable oath
The end is near, living on rations
The tiniest movement
Triggered an avalanche
Consuming all in it's path
I might just jump and break a neck
Either way
See you soon
Always dark, no way
For light in the abyss of darkness lagoon

Full of hope joy and expectations Celebrating the arrival of my messiah It is you I have been waiting for Grinding to a halt feelings of despair Until I heard the story That saddens me Makes me feel minute Inconsequential Unwanted I am Just a little boy, immature Then I buckle my belt Through thick and thin Rain and snow, my aim is you I'll fight for my glory. #SOPHOCLES #Ayoife

Omolola

Omolola mi Because of you, I can trek from Awe all the way to Sabo From the jungles of Akinmoorin to the slums of Isale-Oyo, Even if you want, I can forsake my beloved fufu for noodles. The love I have for you is more than be careful. Although my eyes are pushing me I will bravely face any member of your clan The seed of love you planted in my heart has turned to a great tree of affection Even the giant Iroko will be dwarfed.

Parched

By
Parched Like the flaming of the sun The throat screams Just a drop of moisture Thunderclaps Deep rumbling in the abdominal crevice Acid burning through tissue Empty All you can gather_ amass the wealth Skip Return in multiple of sixty Generosity And kindness resurrected Season of joy_ fulfilment Celebration of life Birth month of The Guidance Eradicating vices Which of the favors of your lord do you deny? 21/30. #SOPHOCLES
