6 or 9?

Sitting in my corner but not oblivious. Sitting to watch the many activities, yet no substance. But one thing I cannot deny... I laugh. Why? Why do you think it has to be tangible or in 'public eye' to be salient? And because you do not know where I'm coming from...you think I've been hypnotized... Now, I laugh out loud..... Well yea, you ain't categorically wrong. But you have no idea what kinda influence it is.. You do not even wish to know. I have tasted of the father's love, hence been bereft of the memory of every other... So, relax! You hear me? Kponkpi ! You cannot compete with God. Nah! Y'all ain't enough. So if you wouldn't mind, and you shouldn't, Sit down... Sit all the way down! Meanwhile, allow me to laugh away.... Hihihihihi....

You.

(i) Sometimes in your journey YOU met a lady. (Babe). She's slim,smart,beautiful,young and naive. she seeks admission, you just got back from service. You are strong, daring and optimistic, at least you thought so. You broke up with Bae to be with babe; a quick escape route of her overbearing attitude. Finally, you got babe. She got an admission, you got a job; things cannot be smoother; just the way you wanted it; the exact picture! Years rolled by and babe is not who you used to know. Your heart is broken; your picture distorted. The more you tried to fix the picture the more it falls apart, you damned everything to have it fixed, you don't mind, you just want babe, you even tried to use the age difference as an advantage but it's so not working, you have questions but you cannot handle the truth; you just can't let go of that picture- the way it is done, at least the way you know. You shut your mind , you couldn't wrap it around what you see...now you are conf...

Everything without you.

I am everything without you Everything you couldn't imagine. Your hold, as feeble as cobweb Was more mental than physical But now I see, I am everything without you... Oh you care; it goes without saying, I know. I see. Only, it's too much for my good. So dont worry; don't bother that I chose to test the depth of this river with both feet... Let me wander, Darling, 'is it your wander'? "I'm lost".... you say. Breaking news: "not all those who wander are lost" Can I shock you? I love the wounds; the stripes I'd don my scars like a graduation robe, It's the uniqueness of my journey. The journey I'd take with or without you, Because my dear I am everything without you, But NOTHING without God. #Oluwalonimi

Grateful heart.

Grateful still... Though You slay me, I will yet follow. When my heart sinks, And I'm overwhelmed with questions; bewildered, Still I find hope in You. Though I mumble, I'd yet clutch to your feet... Cos your love is the greatest of all, And I'd forever be grateful.

unapologetically me!

Don't try to fix me Don't do a remix of me I love me. Don't expect me to be sane Even when you consider me mundane I love me. Though you marvel I won't stop to unravel... I love me. Don't get caught up in the memory of who I used to be It will only break your heart and shorten your sight. Cos how do you expect me to love you right If infact I (don't) love me...?

Pilgrimage.

It's a Journey A love story Every step of the way is as important as the end... It's a script...scattered... A picture when fitted... It's a love story... It's a way through death to life... It's the #DiaryofaPilgrim.
