UNDER THE CASHEW NUT TREE

My mind was  not at ease,
I decided to sit on that old chair under the cashew nut tree,
Birds were singing and  there was a  cool breeze.
I looked the way the leaves  and twigs swung free.
The chair was meant for two,
I knew the other space was meant for you.
But i was there  alone.
This is the spot we used to meet
but now you're gone.
This is the spot i used to hear everything sweet.
It was where i proposed but you said ''NO''
And the pain you left me with was more than that of heartbreak.
You told me we were just friend,nothing more.
And every word from you was like a sour herb i couldn't take
-----------------------------------------------------------
Even the birds had stopped singing and dancing
No breeze,no twigs and leaves swinging
Tears were already flowing,i had been crying .
I collected my pieces,doubting each of my thought.
I thought you're the one and your not.
Again i thought you would consider me.you didn't
I was friend-zoned without knowing...
The "i love you too,i love you more" responses were just words
without any meaning,
I'm out of it, we better be enemies or strangers
you destroyed my world.

STILL THE ONE

My first promise was  i'll never be your EX. Second was to never,ever let you go. That is i'll fight for you no matter what! And i was ready for what will come next. I had no thoughts of loving any more. You had wholly engulfed my heart. Good thing i still love you the same.. I couldn't love you more i was at the climax. You also made your promises Im greatful you kept them. We still progressing.. despite the ups and down. Cause i know i  for a record you've never let me down. You always pick me, and dust me up.. Its now our Seventh anniversary. You've told me many of the  best things i yearned to hear. To an extend i just remember a summary You always tell me i have no idea of how much you love me.. You always say you love my deep voice. Its the music that everyday you want to hear And I'm always your best choice. I know they will be more,same time next year. We've the best moments that i just want to live in. Like the day i took

Why did you laugh?

Why did you laugh? When you know your smile robs me of my senses, Takes my identity and also flashes my bright eyes, Unable to think about anything else but submit to you, Rob me of my masculinity and make me feel like a little boy. Passionately, intimately, you look me straight in the eyes, For your eyes are the windows to your heart, I can gaze straight through your beautiful soul, For I trust your eyes will never lie, no matter how hard you'd try. You should know, three things that makes my life complete  Are love, laughter, and you, my drug, my addiction, The laughter has lasted since the very first moment  Falling for you babynaa, has been so much fun. Regardless of whether it's giggles at the kitchen table  Or even full loud laughter any place we're capable  Every single smile, is an image of our affection  You're my dream come true, all I ever dreamt of. Our adoration, well that is somewhat more significant  Radiating through when our giggling is ridiculous  Begi

Bad Day

Cause I slept drunk yesterday, I wake up with a spinning head I can't tell left from right. I have to pull myself together and after a litre or two of chilled water with a squeeze of lemon I become steady,trying to wake my wife up since I can't do shit on my own, it's dark ;4 or 5 in the am-so I think, dogs are barking And a cock can be heard from a far,"why are you so stubborn!" slowly whispers ,my wife. Assuming that is rhetorical ,I let her be, I have to fasten my pace so I cannot be late for work. The weather is chill and mist has formed in most part of my neighbourhood, again I can't see shit and this time not because of the darkness but the mist. I have already left the house when I get a call from my boss "Hello, I thought we spoke yesterday and you promised to be here earlier than now!" "What!?,I mean sorry, I am on my way sir."I reply not knowing what we spoke about the previous day. My head is still floaty, memories about last nig
