Keys and Strings

Astonished I am

By thine comely grace

Lush green leaves swaying in the breeze

All hang their apex in jealousy

When you walk by

The midday sun is it as hot

As your cool beauty.


Awesomeness is your birthright

Omidan,

Arẹwà

Ọmọge míì.

I don't know how to play the harp

I'd have sing to you

With the strings.

And I can't play the piano

I'd have made you blush

With the keys.


All I know is lines

I hope my lines are strong enough

To reel you in.

To me,

Mine and mine alone.

There is love in sharing,

But I can't share my love.

I'm the sole proprietor here.

Paraprosexia Like a thorn in the side Always present Yippee, what can I do Way too much Intoxicated by you Till dusk or dawn Here with me My constant distraction Enigma, the one I love

i love

I see you in every reflection I will become your flute And only your lips can blow me You're my only destination Your heart and mine interfuse I know right, lovey dovey Smile, epitome of perfection Any rumors of distrust, refute Possessive, I belong to thee

Stranger In The Night

Half moon lurking in the sky But still dark, That I can't see your eyes. But I heard your voice. "Good evening" she said And that got me high Ebony beauty clad in black Still can't see your face But I heard your voice. I fell totally for you Still can't see in the dark. "Can I know her name" I muttered to myself Still too dark to see her face But I'm gone. I fell in love with a stranger Without a name And  without a face.
