The mind

Trapped in dramatic illusions
Lost in the realm of notions
Catapulted to a world of fancy indulgence
The mind in its own is a globe
Porous and wide in scope.

The creepy events that betide within
Hidden by walls unseen

The  site of embellished desires
Decorated by dribs of nefariousness
That thrives in solitude.

If one could see the mind of another
Or the intents of a neighbor
Rather than hoaxed expositions
A shield for perpetrations.

Who can discern
The unscrupulous form of the mind
But the proprietor.

So I think not upon utterances
But wonder I deliberately
Upon the man that lies within
The mind.

What's Past

Image
A step in front leaves it all behind When back, it stays with you With it, all prospects are blind They never get to come true A day with it is like a night with no stars Where, you don't get to see what's ahead Even while looking up and forward But only beholding the darkness around you It is a companion, one so troublesome Who doesn't wait out the storm But comes with the storm And you may never move away, even when it comes Yes,What's past is gone and for good But you've got a mind to rule Either you stay mourn its departure Then someday scream mea culpa!mea culpa!! Or look ahead, preparing for the future. Written by Daniel Etim Model: Nimi Ngiangia

MISSING SCHOOL GIRL

Image
I cry, I cry but who does hear these tears? the wind, oh the wind I look up in despair. This unending nightmare is more than I can bear. But all I do is stare, but my heart makes a wish. I look but I see not I listen for that holy call the part where I yell freedom at last and goodbye to my hurting past. Could my day have grown past? Could my night have long last? If it be the light of dawn that I may perceive again. With fading hopes and visions my dreams they fizzle out. With only little provision this might just be my last. I cry in the face of destiny I stare in the face of hope. Now left in teary lingers how much more can I cope. A virgin yet a mother a maiden yet a widow. My voice; it screams for help My heart; it burns in tears. Oh! how they cut my skin My flesh is now for dogs. Oh! how they eat me daily just like a bowl of pods. I cry, I cry but who does hear these tears? The wind; they mock me daily the bird; they sing my doom. The days; th...

SCARS Part 1

Image
Last night, we had been too tired and too excited with our wedding, we had gone straight to bed once it was bedtime; my arms around her possessively. Several times during the long night I had felt her eyes on me; they would flutter shut when I opened mine. At least that’s what I thought. I would watch her for a while, her breathing soft and slow like the gentle stirring of the sea; the wind of her breath caressing my face. Once or twice; okay, fine, more times than I can count, I had leaned in to kiss her small lips that seemed to pout as she slept.     Excuse you! She’s my wife now. “Good morning, Bill” I heard her voice, my eyes fluttered open in response. I had been awake already. I just hadn’t known what to do; I had decided to wait till she woke me up. “Good morning, Sweetness.” I said, Well, our eyes were fixed on each other’s. This was going to be my first time. I had a busy teenage and youth life, though spiced with a few girlfriends; it never really ...

She said she wanted just to say "hi" and after we talked for hours and more it became a problem to say "bye" He said he just wanted to see my smiles, but we would then hold hands and walk miles. She wanted just to talk and talk we did until it wasn't enough she wanted more. She said she does not like hugs so we shook hands but as time passed it was not enough any more. we just had to get more so we hugged for seconds and it grew from minutes into some thing that looked like a cuddle, but the affection was still not enough, so every once in a while we would give each other pecks on the chick and it was nice and all but we wanted more, so we kissed once and again and again.   It was cloudy and windy one lovely evening. Even a blind man could tell that the rain was coming, the power was out and she and I as though we were opposites of a magnet came closer and closer, she wanted to cuddle, so we cuddled and cuddled until our clothes left our bodies ...

Sarah (Part 3)

Continues from  Part 2 Do you remember the feeling of getting the first note from your crush? Ecstatic, right? Add the feeling of the note saying “I’m sorry we can’t be together, now.” Sour, true? You didn’t know whether to be happy about the note or sad that you couldn’t be together yet, somewhere in your mind still, a small voice is saying “Well, she cares about me. Well, he’s into me too” That’s the feeling. Right, Jireh just gave me the word for it. Numb. Numb yet at peace. My dearest Tayo, How long did it take your sloppy fingers to find the note, eh? I’m missing you already, my love “I miss you more, honey” I whisper out loud. Shammah heard, smiled at me. Jireh was just beside me. She squeezed my hand. I squeezed back. I wish I could stay longer and have children with you. Children we’ll be proud of. My love, every night I sleep I see visions of heaven and a feast awaiting me. I wish to stay, but I must go. My love, don’t weep too long for me, please d...

Tasting tear drops (part 1)

Image
Tomorrow, it'd be second August again and Mary will go out to China town. She'd buy herself some beautiful Chinese lanterns and all sorts of decor she can remember. Each year, they become less because of her amnesia. Then she'd stop by her favourite Chinese restaurant and buy everyone sushi. Dad will help take out everything in the garage and she'll set up her decorations, it had become some kind of ritual, one that only both of them understood. She'd set up dinner table for two and she'd place two seats. When the clock strikes nine in the night and the star lights are in place, for some bizarre reason, there are always star lights in the sky on the second of August. Its as if even God understands that the night lights are important to her. She'd dress up in a beautiful dinner gown and come downstairs, and dad as always, will take her by the hand and walk her to the front door. Once she was outside, she'd hug an imaginary figure and point to the sky....

Continued from Part 1 If you haven't read part one,  Click here to read Jane was waiting around the corner. He had texted her that he was coming out, would she want to walk with him? Yes was the answer. She put her hand over his eyes, standing behind him immediately he crossed her path. “Jane” he said. She took her hands off, laughing excitedly like they hadn't already met at school earlier in the day. He turned around, holding her face in his hands. She stepped out of his hands giving him a disapproving glare. He grinned. “Teens shouldn't kiss like it's tea they must drink” he laughed.”Seriously, Sam. I think we should wait till we get married. “ His mouth hung open, the smile fading off his face. “Do you have a fever?” He asked her “No. Why?” “You sound strange. Did I offend you?” “No Sam,” Placing her hands on his shoulder. “Not you; the school’s evangelist” Sam arched his brow. “What about him? You're seeing him?” “No Sam.” Taking her han...
