Something Inside of Me

There is something inside of me
That I want the whole world to see
It is neither massive nor small
But it is the greatest gift of all

It makes me humble and meek
And it’s free to them that diligently seek
It answers my prayers as soon as I pray
And when I kneel it creates a way

Though easy, yet surpasses the wise
The prudent are beaten betimes
And only them that reads between the line
Knows that these words are not mine

When it comes out like a song
It makes me right my wrong
And when it comes out like love
It is in the similitude of a dove

It elevates the low and simple
It brings gentleness among many people
It is the best thing that can ever occur
When it comes in contact with the poor

It crowns good success at the end
For it is an in need and indeed friend
And whenever it is called upon
Seldom disappoints, right on time with joy

There is something within my soul
And it mends the broken whole
For I have tried it and you can see
That it is Jesus on the inside of me

Blind Son Of Timæus

Darkness once filled my world
Believing only what I smell and hear
Many are aware of my distresses
Yet many could barely bear

Left my juvenile court
To embrace the youthful arms I didn't see
In the open I sat daily
Waiting for the dime meant for me

In rags I am clothed
With crumbs I am fed
My bride hardly believes her sight
Wishing I was dead

Yet my little turtle dove
I sacrificed for her health
Forfeited my lamb for my daughter
Who sings my heart to melt

Though I haven't seen her
Her voice lingers in my head
I tried all to do for her
Yet couldn't make her cradle bed

Suicidal became my dearest friend
As fulfilment days drew near
Having achieving nothing big
Torrential judgment became my fear

As I walked down to my usual spot
I felt like any other day
Ambivalence clouds my mind
Wondering what next to say

Voices were noised abroad
Heralding an uncertain rain
What could this be I questioned
A familiar name heads my way

My adrenalin shot at desperation
My voice He heard finally
He sent for me and demanded
My request was granted gradually

"Happy Birthday"

Should I tell you about a morning?
Waking up not hearing the bird sing
Should I tell you about a vesper?
Where sorrow was all I could bring

Should I tell you about the rain that fell?
And brought total debacle to Abuja
Should I tell you about a stranger I met?
Who left my life ajar

Should I tell you about a one night stand
That after everything I got blisters
Should I tell you about the predicament
That happened to one of my sisters

Should I tell you about church I went to
And saw the greatest profanities
Should I tell you about the lonely night
I slept with promiscuous reveries

Should I tell you about a gay wedding
That got all the ladies in the house weeping
Should I tell you about the diva girl
That got every guy tripping

Should I tell you about my new nephew
Whose father happens to be my brother
Should I tell you about the many atrocities
That takes place across the borders

What should I tell you
To make you smile all day
Well, today being the day you were born
From my heart I’ll simply say
Happy Birthday

To My Unborn Child (The reason why)

Whatever name you call
There is a personal faith in all
Whatever event you remember
Seldom forget the 26th of December

Whatever wine you taste
Never get crazy in haste
Whatever bread you eat
Always remember to bless it

Wherever you lay your head down
Be contented and please don't frown
Whatever condition you are found
Be candid and literally sound

Whenever past memories fills your soul
Whatever got broken becomes whole
Whenever you are clouded with uncertainty
Refuge yourself in excellent vicinity

Whenever you are hurt and forced to cry
Swiftly wipe your tears before they dry
Whenever you are paralysed with fear
Wrap yourself in the creator's care

Whenever the sky fume with rain
Stand firm and tolerate the pain
Whenever the sun refuses to gloss
Know a great portion waits to be yours

Whenever dark clouds should hide the moon
Just know that sunrise is coming up soon
Whenever fear fills your blue sky
With time you'll know the reason why

One can be you

One song can spark a jiffy,
One flower can wake a reverie.
One handclasp can lift a soul
One word can frame a goal

One tree can start a jungle,
One bird can form a jingle.
One smile begins a friendship,
One star can guide a ship

One vote can change a country,
One sunbeam lights an opportunity,
One candle wipes out darkness,
One laugh conquers gloominess.

One step starts each journey
One word must start each plea.
One hope can raise the low and simple,
One touch can change many people.

One voice can speak with insight
One heart can know what's right,
One life can make a distinction,
And that one would be perfection

It’s Okay to Cry

I saw her after a long time
She never did changed from her prime
She bleached her hair to hide her feelings
Her beautiful face had lost all its meanings

She needed to talk
So we took a long walk
I thought about my friend I left in a rush
She thought about her first crush

She spoke about her love affairs
Then I saw a heart bound with fear
She told me about her inner pain
Then I saw friendship worth the gain

She told me about goals in life
I saw a picture of a virtuous wife
She told me about her exigency of a friend
I saw a broken heart I could mend

She was missing her family
I was missing a friend badly
She thought her life was a waste
I saw a fruit that’s worth to taste

I then saw her in a worst state
I took her hands and gave her some faith
I said these words to show I was candid
“I was there, its okay to cry” - so she did

Freedom

Many years has passed us by
Yet no sign of a coming liberation
Our burdens increase by the day
At dusk we dine with affliction

Our fathers work earnestly
To satisfy the obnoxious taskmasters
Our mothers kept the chaste line strong
Despite all promiscuous dangers

Our young and gorgeous daughters
Are used for pleasure and satisfaction
Our young and mighty men of valour
Are mainly used to stop opposition

Babies are abundantly born
In bond they age and fade away
The strong is susceptible to the weak
Hopes and dreams die each passing day

Every night with prayers of faith
We wonder the end of this madness
But all we see is Judas amid us
And all he has to offer is silliness

Who will remember us?
Who will hear our humble cry?
In disguise we are benevolence
Sitting idle gazing to the empty sky

The Elixirs of a Smile

It cost nothing but creates much
Enriching those who freely gives
With it Midas’s touch and power
It gladdens those who receives

Though it happens in a flash
Its memories always last long
Some could be done in total disguise
But its efficacies are never wrong

It creates happiness in the home
Fosters goodwill in a business
Forms a good banter on the phone
Frees any in the land of distress

It gives strength to the weak
Daylight to the broken hearted
Sunshine to them that are sad
And nature’s antidote for the departed

Cannot be bought or begged for
Cannot be borrowed or stolen away
For its of no earthly good to anyone
Until it is freely given away

And if you meet any in life’s way
That seems too tired to smile
Dropping yours with such a one
Would be really worth the while

For only those who have none to give
Really need to receive a simple smile
So if you want people to really like you
The basic rule is – give them a smile

My Special Friend

When I have no one to turn to
And I feel kind of low,
When there is no one to talk to
And nowhere pleasing enough to go,
I search deep within myself
It is the love inside my heart
That lets me know you are there
Even though we are miles apart

A smile then appears upon my face

Then the sun begins to shine.
I hear a voice, so soft and sweet
Saying, 'Everything will be just fine'
It may seem that I am alone
But I am never by myself at all.
Whenever I need you near
All I have to do is call.

Your Friendship is really true
On that I can depend
I will always stand beside you
And will always be your friend
Through darkest hours and brightest days
You always see me through.
You are my one and only
Perhaps I am one for you.

Valentine

Should I call you my Girl?
You deserve more, many would tell
Should I call you my wife?
A Dicey Descision in my young life
What should I call you?
To make the sky blue
Since you alone mended my heart with time
You deserve to be called my valentine....
