Solitude

By
Just a smile

Or a good natured grin

Is all I need

To make my day splendid.


But I detest company

Want to be left alone.

All my life,

I’ve wanted to grow older

So I can finally be free.


It gladdens my heart

And excites my soul

The long conversations

I have with myself


Moving through the jungle of people

Scanning for a homely face

Like looking in a haystack for a needle

This is not my place


But there’s a day coming

That I will be surrounded by friends and family

But 6 ft deep in the soil

Alone, isolated and separated forever

My eternal dream of solitude

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

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
