HUMANITY!!!

We human beings gat me wondering most of the times
We kept parabulating like the waters that actually has no where to go,
Instead, it keeps going to and fro in a unique manner (CIRCLE).

A beautiful world was created by the Most High,
Yet, our greediness, and our selfishness turned it upside down
He, in His infinite mercy realized how bad we’ve become
He came to our rescue and tried to make the path clearer for us all to see,
He brought down the whole heavens for our reasoning to be clearer
He gave us His only begotten son;

For the Son to preach the religion He wants
For the Son to practicalise the religion He wants
For the Son to live through the religion He wants
Alas, all these were not enough.

He brought death to the doorstep of His only Son
Just for us to understand what He actually wanted.
Yet, I couldn’t place my thoughts in any direction why we are still lost
Why humans still ask one another what religion does the Most High cherish?

If not HUMANITY, which other religion do you think He wants us to live for?

12 DAYS OF FREEDOM

A little above 12am on that fateful day
The walk on the path of 12days freedom started
Social media was buzzing with freedom cry
Mouths of the youth were yawning one word, FREEDOM!!!
Voices of a whole youth of a Nation turned to ONE VOICE!
All they were clamouring for was FREEDOM!
✊✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿

THOUGHTS (PT 2)

Peace and Unity is a dream that hasn’t come through yet,
Pick up the stone and throw, if truly you love your neighbors as yourself
Middle fingers to ourselves if the good deeds we’ve done is for the optics
Beat your chest if indeed your outing on Sundays is to serve God and not to oppress.
Jumat service you hold so much dear to your heart,
Is it because you want to pray or you want to show the handiwork of your fashion designer?
Kudos to you Mr. Billionaire, hopefully your family members and your street are not suffering?

As we all know; a poor man is a poor man
But ask yourself if you are poor because you are poor, or because you are lazy?
(Don’t mind him he’s a ritualist)
This has become the anthem of all poor men when they sees a rich man
(He is too stingy and too pompous)
Obviously this is your praise and worship every minutes as a poor man
(Nah only him waka come?)
This is your topic with your family of gossipers
My country people never ceased to amaze me.
And the question still lingers on;
Are we better than those we judge?

C-VIRUS

It dawned on us like the first day of the year
In anyway not compared to the last day of the year
When we realized we can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear
Then we knew there was no safety anywhere

The whole planet earth crumbled at the sound from the drums of the virus
Celebrations, joyfulness, and endless parties had been carted away by the thief, named C-Virus.
Everywhere was so quiet, all we could hear was the humming of the faceless virus
I heard when such faults occurred in the past, all we had to do was to re-make the papyrus
But little did we know that our ignorance would cost us a lot from the hands of the C-Virus

I stand to be corrected had been corrected
I am tall in all my doings had been truncated to the nearest minimum
I am a man of my words had realized the words were never his
Who knew our leaders could be so humbled?

I was told to listen to the sound coming out from the drums of the C-virus
I was told it’s not a danceable sound, neither a happy sound
I was told it’s a call to glory to some, while to those of us alive,
It’s a sound to value, cherish every minute being alive,
And love one another as we deem fit.

What was once wrong!

What was once wrong now seems right
I heard it’s now a taboo for a Male child to prostrate for his elders
Unbelievably, being a virgin is now a crime
Beyond human reasoning, as @17,
You are now expected to own a car.

What was once right now seems wrong
Children couldn’t gather in a park to play again
Cos’ it has turned to an hideout for gangsters
I couldn’t believe my ears when I heard Society is now in a mess
“To be polite”, I now heard is a secret attitude
That has to be exhibited in discrete.

What was once wrong now seems right
Despite all the curses in the Holy Book,
Some are still getting involved in incest as a normal routine
I heard church is now regarded as one of the lucrative jobs.
I wished it was not true, when I heard that;
Graduating in flying colors simply meant nothing in the labour market.

What was once right now seems wrong
I heard HARDWORK is no more the key to SUCCESS
Rather, it is the shortcut that leads to SUCCESS.
How in Heaven’s name would my children believed that;
There was a time that children believed so much in their parents?

INSIDE LIFE

Only God knows where he got his brains from?🤷‍♂️
Haba, was it not the same book we read?
Cos’ I don’t understand, was it not the same classes we attended?

What if I told you that “this guy you are looking at, nah my childhood friend be that oo, would you have believed?”
Only God knows how his story became a success almost immediately he came back from his home-town😞😞
Even his wife, I was the first person to ask her out back then in school

I wonder how it has always been Erinayo that all guys always ask out🤔🤔
We are friends of 4, and yet the best always goes to her first?
Wetin she use do head, wey we no get?
In fact her boobs and yansh, no reach Biola own
She no even fair reach Chinyere
What am I even saying, naturally, she no beautiful reach Opeyemi
Yet, she knows how to seduce guys to go for her first. Stupid ashewo
Inside life

We both applied for this job and got employed the same day
In fact, I was ahead of her initially
Suddenly, she started putting on tight trousers
Before I know it, she is now the Branch Manager
Am sure, she is using juju
How on earth will I introduce you to a business
And you will be making more than me?😳😳🤷‍♂️
Have been in this business years before I introduced you to it
And I was told but I wouldn’t listen
See the end now, you’ve been using my glory, ehn
Nah me no even get sense🤦‍♂️
Shebi you are from a background of IFA, oniranu.
Inside life.

Bode is the last born of the family but he is richer than all of his siblings, I still don’t understand how it happened.
Hope its not what am thinking oo, maybe nah ritual Bode do
Had it been I knew Rachel would come for the money I was owing her
Shebi I would’ve collected the money Emeka dashed me,
but how can Emeka dash me #2000 as rich as he is? Oga ooo

This life is full of ups and downs, destiny can never be changed but delay.
Accept what life throws at you and be thankful because this life can be funny at times.
Change is inevitable, anything can happen at anytime.
You’ve gat a life to live inside this life.
Be focus and live your life as it is.

MY SUPPLICATIONS

Take away my pain, give me comfort
Take away my sadness, give me reasons to be happy
Take away my weakness, give me strength
Take away my present challenge give me another.

Have complained too much about leg pains, cos’ of too much trekking
I wanna complain to my friends about Nigeria roads, cos’ its affecting my cars
Am tired of having irrelevant thoughts about house rent, am not too small to own a mansion
I wanna complain to my wife I couldn’t observe my siesta
Cos’ my beautiful children won’t allow me not because of stuffiness in my one room apartment

At times I wonder if am related to RAINBOW cos’ of my multicolor complexion
All I need is one complexion oh Lord
Am fed up of my 0-1-0 routine, I need a complete diet
I want to start going to gym just to keep fit,
Not cos’ of having 6 packs to impress ladies, my collection of cars can actually do that

Take away the poverty in me, give me riches and wealth
Take away the bad belle friends around me, replace them with properties
Take away condemnation in me, give me blessing
Take away my bothered sleepless night, give me PEACE OF MIND

MY SUPPLICATIONS!

Signs of Victory

Anything that goes up must come down they say
But it was never said when exactly it would start falling back
The light shines so bright at the end of the tunnel
The breeze is unlike something have felt in the past

I’m tasting salt in the air, definitely there is water ahead of me
Have reached my boiling point, now its time for cooling point
Am seeing Greenland ahead of me, if not my Canaan land then what else?
Have passed through the checking point, definitely am very near to the city
I can feel the signs of victory
I can’t just wait to be called a FULFILMENT

Signs of victory

When will that be?

When will that be?
That I will be a man of myself

When will that be?
That the struggles of today would become history
That I will be able to say
WHEN I WAS SUFFERING
That I will be able to stop running helter and skelter to make ends meet.

When will that be?
That I will have more than I need
That I will be able to raise my head as a man
That I will be able to look back and say THANK GOD
That I will be able to look back and smile.

When will that be?

THREE JOLLY FRIENDS

Birds of the same feather flocks together they say,
But they never explained how birds of different feathers can flock together.
I wonder what kind of illustration and description would be given to ours?

Three jolly friends with
Different ideologies,
Different backgrounds,
Different objectives and purposes. YET,
We came together as individuals
Became ONE in the journey of life
Shared so many untold and different things together

Fought with words, argued with laughter
Frowned at each other with honest mindset
Hard pranks just to impact knowledge
And never for once raised a finger to fight each other.

It kept me wondering,
How can we be so different and feel so much alike?

THE HOME I DREAMT OF

A comfortable and serene environment, filled with mother nature
The chirps of the birds to serve as the alarm to my hearings,
Coupled with the lovely atmosphere of my garden of flowers
A bright and beautiful ray of the sun to enlighten my room every morning
The HOME I dreamt of.

A very busy midday with my children
Settling different issues between them siblings
Widening their horizon of thinking with God’s words coupled with my little experience
Feeding them food with my own very hands
Laughing with joy while playing series of games
Ogling at them with a beautify smile of fulfilment and satisfaction from life
The HOME I dreamt of.

A nice delicacy on the dinning table for dinner
Prepared by the great chef of the house
Ate in accordance with utmost satisfaction
And later dive into my cushion for relaxation
With her head on my lap, my fingers scroll through her new plaited hair
The chitchat between I and the woman behind my smile would be unbelievable
The HOME I dreamt of.

Having a nice time with MY WORLD at the end of the day won’t be too bad
With her head on my chest, cuddled together on a family bed size is simply the best of all
With sleep knocking on my door,
My heart will be giving thanks to God
For a happy home given to me.
The HOME I dreamt of.

Life is a race

Living through this life is a lot like running a race that includes hurdles
Some people expect life to be easy, and smooth
When they encounter an hurdle, they became surprised, angry and fearful
They don’t think they should be expected to deal with such things

So they wait around for someone to remove the obstacles They will try to find a shortcut around it, or they simply give up and stop running
And during the process, their attitude gets worse and worst

Successful people expect to face hurdles
Winning people expect to face hurdles
They know that overcoming obstacles is a normal part of life and they plan accordingly
They face their their challenges instead of scaring away from it

They embraced the idea expressed by “Walt Emerson”,
Who said,

” What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us”

TOMORROW

Since the inception of my days, have always been told and taught
That all days are evil, that I should always redeem my time
But at a point in time, when all hopes were lost

When the supposed bright day wasn’t bright anymore
When the supposed lovely night wasn’t lovely anymore
I felt so sad, disappointed and devastated
I felt nothing is no more possible to achieve
I felt that’s the end of time, ‘cos I couldn’t see ahead

But a voice said to me in a calm manner;

“Tomorrow is another day
Another day of redeemed hopes
Another day filled with various opportunities”
The voice continue and says
“All the pains of today, you will forget about it tomorrow
All the sleepless night you are having today,
It won’t reflects on your body tomorrow”

My eyes were awaken from its slumber of sadness
My strength was renewed from my dry bones
I stand and stood my ground

I was told no matter how heavy the rain is,
Sun will definitely arise the following day
My tomorrow is another day,
Another day of greater opportunities.

WITHOUT YOU

WITHOUT YOU!!!

What is a sea without a fish?
What is a jungle without an animal?
What is a day without the brightness and the sun?
What is a night without the moon and the stars?

What is ME without YOU my love?

You’ve become the beat in my heart
You’ve become the gem among my stones
You’ve become my weakness
You’ve become the source of my strength
Without YOU MY WORLD,
Am NOBODY.
I want YOU forever.

TROUBLED HEART

My heart sinks at the hearing of your name
My heart is troubled like the ocean waves
It’s as if the once beautiful world is about to end
It feels as if the once blossomed flower is perishing

My heart feels so heavy, thinking about those moments we’ve shared together
Had I know its gonna be like this,
I would have made my stepping with caution
I would have been more prepared
I would have realized how the so called “LOVE” works.

My heart is injured because of the hole you left there

My mind is sick because your love has encapsulated my thoughts
My legs seems to collapse whenever I passed through where we’ve been together

All have ever sought for is your love
All have ever wanted is you being by my side
Am dying everyday with you far away from my heart

My love, please do reconsider your thoughts
I love you dearly

Promise to my unborn children

I pledge to my children male and female
To be faithful, loyal and honest
To serve and raise you with all my heart
To perform my responsibilities in my best capacity
To spend my leisure time judiciously with you
To not make a false promise to you

Possibly, I might not be the best in your world
But I will try and be the best you can reckon with
And uphold the honour and glory of a father
So help me God.
Amen.
I remain your loyal and loving father to be.

El Mayarah (Stronger Together)

Made out of my rib was called a woman
A woman of my own was carved out from my heart
One heart divided into two, just to become one again

Two pairs becoming one pair,
A pair to achieve a dream,
A dream to share a thought,
A thought to achieve a purpose,
And a purpose to breed one family.

Apart we are individual with less strength
Together we are one, stronger more than an ocean
Stronger together than a legion of soldiers
We are stronger together

NO ONE KNOWS

Waking up from my bed early this morning
Feeling the breeze and perceiving the smell of a new day
Hearing the sound and chirp of the birds
Feeling so happy and energetic
Planning and foreseeing my day,
As if I know what the day has in stock for me
As if I know what is gonna happen in the next minutes

Growing up of a child is like a sun coming out from its shell,
Trying to reach the highest peak
As if the sun knows how the day is gonna be

Someone said, we can study history, philosophy and Plato’s ideology, but tomorrow is still a mystery

A mystery which can be your opportunity to fail
Or be successful if you please and wish.

You can study the weather through every means you are aware of
You can predict the descending of the rain on earth
Same goes go the shinning and scorching of the sun for the day
But that’s as far as your guess goes
Because no one knows tomorrow.

Things being bad today, you being the first from behind in your class
You having nothing in your possession, you facing tribulations right now
Doesn’t really define how your future is
Just live your life as you are suppose to live it
Because no one knows tomorrow

Do not allow anybody to define who you are
Cos if you do, you would have to follow that path
As if they know, but no one knows tomorrow.
And because no one knows tomorrow

Our living today must be right and bright

With love in our hearts and our goals in sight
Just to live the best we can and await a better tomorrow
For no one knows tomorrow.
