He Was and Then Wasn't
He brought me flowers
walked with me through October rain
held me in warm bathroom showers
comforted me through my pain
Days turned into years
as time's wheels spun around
then he found a younger beauty
leaving my heart on the ground
In a whirlwind of passion
his love and desire ran wild
he vanished without a word
leaving behind a heart once beguiled
Plans unfurled in silence
a love lost in the night
he was here, and then he wasn't
a fleeting star, dimmed from sight
thus, here I am never trusting
never believing in anyone’s loving
unless its from me to another
I can never be sure
-not an entry-

Dangerous Mind

So many falling stars
In the corridors of thought
where shadows white is sublime
wheels of memory spin
in circles they turn
whispers of forgotten dreams
linger in the air.
Faces in the mirror
reflections of the past
moments fleeting by
too precious to outlast
colors of emotion
in a kaleidoscope's embrace.
Echoes of a heartbeat
in the silence of the night
thoughts like scattered leaves
take their secret flight
twirling like a dance
on the edge of the unknown.
Threads of golden memories
woven through the years
laughter mixed with tears
in the tapestry of dears
circles form within circles
an intricate design
in the labyrinth of nought
where dreams forever brine.
Seasons change their colors
as moments come and go
in the spiral of existence
the winds of life blow
through the corridors of time
where echoes softly bind
truths are there to find.

Vision Of Insanity
ALL the WORLD needs IS a RESULT from YOU, deliver IT and IT'S gonna PAY YOU..
By the end of this session, my mission accomplished
What follows next only leads to sanity..
If you ever happen to meet me on the way
Behave with me so kindly
Back home, I got this charity
I've never ever looked down on any needy
The most dangerous thing is facing reality
At that instance, you know it's a game of probability
A conflict within any family
Fulfilling one's wishes in vanity
So fragile at first just a seed or a seedling
From a cradle through the ranks, I graced the throne in a castle
Now standing firmly rooting the earth called me Iroko or mahogany
In the whole world of economy
I've turned out to be the most precious commodity
In a very demanding world
All the options put together you can only call it scarcity
Using my darkest art here in the most darkest symphony
Against all odds
Defying the law of gravity..
In the art of economy
I happened to be the hottest commodity
Let's be frank It's not at all easy
Thriving in an evil's community
Living and working in the devil's territory
I don't remember telling you before that I've this vision of insanity
This world you and I live in is just an infirmary
All of us held hostage in a demon's custody
The unholy place where I know lust before puberty
Each footstep is within the perimeter of an evil territory
Wherein, if you don't hustle somehow you got condemned to poverty
Every day on the way to the bank clearing my checks, it's always busy
Making a living in one's enemy colony
A pest in a haste I told you it is not at all easy
To the word confinement, please add another word solitary
An impossible mission to accomplish and it is compulsory
Always in motion with nor emotions
A man of action with no cautions
In all this commotion
In my sight, I've a single vision
The only place I can peep, and see things beyond reality
Are you asking me about sanity?
I have since turned myself into an Agama lizard defending external intruders from entering my colony
Just take a look at yourself amigo you sound so silly
Disclaimer or a trailer called it, but it's beyond reality
Thought I told you since forever I lose my sanity
Ever since I found out about my new reality
I couldn't even sleep with the hottest hotel receptionist
Simply coz..
My vision is that of insanity!
I used this sense of humor during my sophomore years living in a sorority
Where I sat down in an oasis of serenity
Where you can see me dancing with destiny
At the center of a life cycle
The only spot you can twirl and whirl with reality
It is within my right
In broad daylight
To kill somebody
In front of everybody
Simply coz..
My vision is that of insanity!
Never judge me, I've this vision of insanity
I rabble rouse inside a symphony
In my bid of becoming the hottest commodity
I could've studied the bible so well and become the next pope..
But I chose to make my own dope
You see two ways how to kiss the girl destiny
All because of my visions of insanity
In the art of economy, I am the hottest commodity
In the aftermath, the diminishing return of all these is sanity..
