SOPHOCLES

Always running through my mind No wonder you're always tired It never seems to get old Your hearty laugh Displaying the most perfect row Of glistening white teeth Or your sincere smile When I read my poems out loud With my frog voice But still you pretend It's the most beautiful voice On planet earth.

Dimpled smile of a hundred megawatt Electrocuted on the spot Preternatural energy coursing through me Who is this ebony beauty? Tall, dark and beautiful Moving like a fine maiden that she is Bringing out the gentleman in me "Fair maiden, What are you called by?" I asked I go by many names As befit a Yorùbá princess such as I Mojọla says I'm covered. Mojọlaoluwa says I'm covered by the glory, blessing, favor, glory and the love of God Almighty.

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

Is it the braids that makes you look cool? I used to wonder! Is it the crew cut, That projects your lovely face? Thinking out loud! Until I saw you now Then it dawned on me! Like the new sun at dawn You're always beautiful Yes you are, Omolola mi

Love comes at a cost Attention Commitment But never for once have I doubted you Shivering Dizzying And generally ill Apart from these. Love is all I feel Love for you Muddled brain And weakened legs Paining joints And sizzling temperature All I can think of is you Forever in love Cannot cover We'll be together my love In the glorious house. Al Jannah

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

I didn't exist before I met you I love, therefore I am Like a traveller in the desert You're my oasis Like the sea of deepest blue Entrancing the lines of your palm As to what I'll like for dessert Barest of laces

On it's way Slowly moving away Packing up it's array Of bounties and blessings We meet again In three six five days Or less Oh Lord! Make me witness The one coming And after And after Till I expire Unshackled they'd be Angry, and seeking revenge Setting new strategies Inventing greater challenges Catching the weak unawares And testing the strong through tears Oh Lord! Make me strong Focus, grace and power To replicate Myriad of achievements Seemingly impossible in it's absense 28/30 or is it 28/29 The month that has it all; Night of ascension Revelation of The Divine Guidance Night of thousands of blessings Oh Ramadan #SOPHOCLES

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 #SOPHOCLES
