Keys and Strings

By
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.

Feelings

By
This feeling of completeness and joy i feel anytime I talk to you can't be explained in words. Actions they say speak volumes. Because words can be misleading. I love you as far as the eye can see and far beyond. I love you as far as the ear can hear and far beyond Saying it won't make it more real And hiding it won't make it less real. I love you so much baby
