Ready yourself
Steady yourself
And go

I sat alone
I ate alone
I walked alone
I existed alone

Yet now you stand here waiting for us to

Seat together
Eat together
Walk together
Exist as one

Words refuse to die
So do not give the wrong words life
Because words my flutter away
But they always make their way back home

I cut
I slice
I tear
I open
I split
I divide
I crack
I break
I destroy every part of me eachday for you

I smile
I lie
I laugh
I giggle with every part of me eachday for you

The ground is putrid
Yet they still smile
They still work
They still live

I know
That even as the rain swallows the ground whole
There are still those that still try to plant their feet somehow somewhere

I am not whole
But slowly I'm pieces of myself
That I never knew I lost

You took your words from your treasure chest
You chose the moset bitter ones
And sprinkled them on my wounds

Is it fates way of telling me I deserve the universes I have yet to discover
By lacing my soul with yours?
By making my happiness that did not exist
Raise to the stars and kiss the blackness of skys

I waited for an eternity to be exposed to a love as raw as this
I begged for a century more for it to last as this one seems to grow roots deep

The wind carries what is not rooted,
So be like the trees
Your leaves may sway but you will remain

Love makes us do crazy things
Like living when the world is nothing but chaos

Beauty is shy sometimes
It is not commanding nor demanding
No
It hides in the corner of the room

True to the words I speak
True to the experiences I have lived
True to the hands I have held
And the faces I have met
Both the ones frozen in time and the ones that held motion
I know to it all a dream that will never be forgotten
A dream I could not make up on my own

You broke my heart
And there was blood everywhere
So I tried to wash it all away with alcohol
But that just made me a little too drunk

Everything is talking
You're either talking to yourself
Or you're talking to the world
If you love
You talk
If you hate
You talk
A good experience
You talk
A bad experience
You talk.
All, everything of this universe this dimension and most likely the next is based on communication, one way or another and talking does not always mean words, it can be actions, signs, designs. We talk, through our art, eyes, lies, fears, desires, fantasies and , ore. And I'm beginning to understand how fundamental it is for us to keep talking, even though it would be extremely yard for us to stop in the first place

He searches for sweetness
And yet there you are
Right in front of him
Honey
Flower
Sugar

Full on lies
Empty on love

I've been conversing with people that don't know me
Contemplating about people that have no desire to know me
And fixating on people that will never be mine

Yet I keep praying,
Disgracing and degrading
Humiliating and abusing
My own soul, for people that never take the time to give me any loving, any caring.
People that are never caught appreciating but keep using what they keep breaking.

The wishing well is too far deep
That I think my wish got stuck
And now vines grow around it
Choking out the will of my dreams

She wanted to be held tight
But he held her down

Stop letting go
Of things you know
Make you glow

Being bound to love

Is bound to fall

But being bound to fall

Is bound to trust

And being bound to trust

Means even if that person doesn't catch you when you fall

You were happy to have died from the love

I crane my head to look at your beauty
But you have moved away
Why do you flee oh beautiful cloud
I am here waiting to capture you within my eyes

I haven't forgiven myself for letting you in
For knowing you were toxic but still letting you in
Into the space between my lips
And almost the space between my hips

Consistently questioning myself but not my worth

Hold me tight sister
Don't let them catch me
"I won't Ezie" said Ngozi as she nestled them deeper into the leaves

Take your journey with a pen

You were wrapped in enticing packaging
Your name scripted in a luscious gold
Your picture proudly in front showing me what could be mine if I just opened the packet and took a bite
Yet I failed to read your ingredients
Of which hate and bitterness were the most previlent

Write with blood and they will see
Write with blood and you will forever be
Write with blood to be everlasting
Write with blood it is quite enchanting
Write with blood it is not at all frightful
Write with blood it is more beautiful
Write with blood for it turns black
Write with blood so you never turn back

I get so frightened that I w ill fade

I wish my misery would melt like strawberry drops
my memories blurring in the distance
I wish my worries would die off like flies
my negativity peeling of the surface

Until then,
I just wish to stay alive
my heart still beating

You are many colours
Even exceeding that of a rainbow
Your eyes shine bright with the past experiences that no man can know
Your hands delicate yet strong
A true rogue flower that is beautiful yet capable of unknown strength
You are a wonder
A rarity in this disturbed world
A true fascination always ready to catch those stumbling
A true rogue flower
Though I write this with sleepy eyes
And a pain that makes me double over
Thinking of your purity in a tainted world feels me with joy not even the stars know
A true gem in a large universe
I thank you for being a true friend

A silent night, disturbed by your feverish search for something unknown.
You reached for me, holding the silver marker in your hand and drew me close.

You began to draw upon my ebony skin, the ever darkness a wonderful contrast to the silver at hand.

You flicked your wrists here and there till you art was complete, creating a sea of stars on ever inch of my chocolate being, I was the universe. In that single moment I was everything that was needed to even exist and that was when you whispered " I cannot breathe without you."

Don't tell anyone
But I think my hands are too weak to catch the right type of love, the good kind that does not drip between your fingers in a sticky mess
But the kind that has wings to fly but remains nestled in your palms

Popping veins like champagne bottles

When you heart is bleeding know when to stop
When the tears are spilling over know when to stop
When it feels like the whole world is sitting upon your chest and you cannot be bothered to even try know when to stop

Because if you don't
Your heart will explode
Your eyes will go blind
The world will tear your chest
And you will realize you will see all the beautiful stars above you,you will hear the wistful birds and feel the velvet soft grass.
But it will be too late

You ****** out the nectar I gathered for years
And now that my sweet scent is gone
You found another flower

The girl that sits infront of you
Having ended her journey
Is not the same girl who started her journey
So please don't dare speak to her like the old her that is lost

Hatred isn't always knives and guns aimed at hearts
Sometimes it is fiery words in legislation that authorises the building of walls
And the banning of free movement
Sometimes hate disguises itself as safety and security but really it is still just hate

I haven't found peace
And I'm guessing I should
Like it is fundamental for my journey
Yet my journey has come to a halt
Well at least part of it
Like I'm in one car going at the speed of light
While I'm in car that has stopped moving because it broke down and a guy named Joe refuses to fix it, even though he has all the spanners and whatnots

So while one me is almost at the destination
The other me is hopelessly lost

I wish winds could die with just a kiss from my lips
oh how famous I would be
I wish the sun would dim at my gaze
oh how famous I would be
I wish snow would melt at my breath
oh how famous I would be
I wish the flowers would bloom with my touch
oh how famous I would be
Oh how famous and how experimented I would be

She moved like the waves
But looked like the sun

I ran,
Only to come back to the same point
Myself

Quite poetic is a dragonfly

Dancing and romancing the sun

It realizes it will soon die

So it doesn't care about the damage done

It just kisses the sky

Knowing its life will soon pass by

It hovers over lakes and sometimes rivers too

Even around people who tell it "Shoo!"

So when it finds itself beneath a boot

Or in front of a wind screen it goes mute

It doesn't care about the impact
because it romanced the sun
Kissed the sky
And glided over water

What more could a dragon fly want?

I sowed your name unto my wrist in red thread
So the devil knew who I belonged to and who would come

My heart is paralyzed and cannot move towards love

She wanted to be held tight
But he held her back
She wanted to be held up
But he held her down

Her lips hid many secrets
And he wanted to find them

"What if I like broken?"He said

She answered
"No one does.no one likes a broken mug.no one uses it.no one likes a broken toy it ends up in the bin.people stay away from broken glass because it hurts them.nothing that is broken is loved"

So many cords..
All tangled.
This was you
And I didn't know where to start from to set you free
