Sugar

You are my special love with no contender. Our sexual embrace runs through my veins and can’t be easily forgotten. Knowing you has sparkled great ecstasy within me and I no longer have time for high-hat. I adore every seconds we spent together and my yearning for you knows no boundaries. Telling me you love me came by surprise to me but beautiful surprises last forever in my heart and I so love you.I LOVE YOU. HAPPY VALENTINE SUGAR. I WISH YOU WERE HERE…

My take on ‘Acrimony’

#Acrimony
Let me start by laughing… Hahahahahaha😂😂😂
Now I can get really angry🙅🙅

I watched this movie weeks back and sometimes the scenario just cross my mind.

I feel so so sorry for #Mrs and at the same time very angry with her.

You caught the man you are engaged to cheating and you forgave him almost immediately, but now you are married to same man for years and couldn’t even listen to him, you are so engrossed with the amount of money and energy you have put into him. You saw only the female’s purse not even her underpants, forgetting the fact that some singles are desperate and can do anything to destroy a family.

All #Mrs needed to do was to believe in her man. Cherish his goals and aspirations.

#Mrs knew no amount of money could pay for the love and luxurious life she would have enjoyed so, she got mad. She loosened all the darkness inside of her.

No amount of compensation can bring back what she would have enjoyed.

Ohhhh I can never blame #Mr on #Acrimony. Ohhh #Mrs is so at fault.

At the end of the day, you would realize that its just you and your husband, whether rich or lacking.

I’m so pissed with her. How could she let go of such a man. This is why I don’t like divorce🙅😢

Africa

She gave birth to influence,
descendants from giants.
Our confidence has no contender,
for we are undertaken by a warrior’s spirit.

The sound of our voice
is like a loud clap of thunder,
that chased a predator from its prey.

Oh Africa, your black essence
has gracefully set us apart,
and given us uniqueness;
The black colours of our dynamism.
Rainbow of the cosmos.

Essence

As fresh as the gentle breeze,
like words calming affliction.
A petard that turns into fireworks,
you are our greatest achievement.

A gain that turns up
with a nourishing crop.
Our essence is satisfied and
we are not enticed.

Our sun shows up in her elegance.
With dazzled gaze,
the whole of nature is illuminated.

Some persons will not like you for who you are. They won’t care for you because you care for them. She can hate you for loving her. That woman may not be nice to you because you are very nice. Never stop the beautiful you because you feel they don’t deserve you. You have been placed above some persons, in character and performance to guide them. So remain on top.

#opinion

These days most men nag more than women.
These days most men have taken the position of women, while women the position of most men.
These days the number of gentlemen have drastically reduced.
These days most men shy away from responsibility.
These days most men are no longer in charge of their homes.
These days most wives have become the husbands.
These days most men have become toys in the hands of ladies.
These days most men have forgotten what it means to be a man.

Undying

Undying

The rocky heart struck vehemently. Tears to wash off your dried soul. The rocky heart shattered by hunger and thirst.

The first asked you to state your state to the rocky heart, but your soul rejected hearing.

The rocky heart exited above, and returned deathless,carrying a triumphant beat that call the attention of all psyche.

Alone

With so much dedication,
he carries her through the valley.
He crosses the river and she is
able to walk the dry ground to the
mountain top.

She looks at him from the
mountain top.
He is as small as a pin.
He couldn’t proceed with her
to the mountain top, for he had
sustained an injury while carrying
her on his back in the valley.

“I must press on to collect the coin,
then return to tend to his wound”
she says to herself.

She is with the coin,
but she can’t find him at the foot
of the mountain.
“I must go. It’s getting dark, I might
catch up with him. He must have gotten
tired of waiting” she says to herself.

On her way through the valley,
She sees his bracelet stained with blood.
Then she sees the animals having a feast.
Their mouth stained with his blood,
glares at her.
She runs so fast, throwing away the coin.
She has lost a companion.
What is she going to tell the world?
Is she at fault?
Is there something she should have done differently?

Violence

One certain morning, guns came into their lives. They woke up thinking it was one of the morning greetings for the ruler. With jubilation they went out to join the parade, alas, their dreams got wounded.

Tears flooded the morning when they saw the pregnant neighbour, lying lifelessly and swimming in blood.

The heart escaped to the legs as the bomb landed on their roof. One of them turned and said; “let’s go back to the house, the youngest is still sleeping!”

It was too late. The house is already burnt to the ground. Oh tears! Tears! Tears have covered the morning sun.

Escaping from the flying bullets, the heat from the boarding school could be felt from a distance. They could hear the students voices. Burnt dreams. Raped dreams. Blood drained dreams.

The preacher’s voice was not far away.They heard the clamour for the lost lives of his congregation.

Oh, the scream from the old woman, whose leg was chopped off on a nearby farmland.

Villainy, wickedness, betrayal, anger, quest for power and selfish ambition crawled into their lives while they were asleep.

Arise! Arise O’ compatriots from your slumber!
