This is emptiness I feel
I miss the days when life was not so horrific
The days when all we cared about was getting by
I miss the feeling of being utterly happy
You know, the kind of happiness that warms the heart
Times when our laughter was boisterous
Our poise and elegance unmatched
Growing older has dealt a blow on me
It’s a life of hardwork and constant striving
In the quest for better, we’ve encountered worse.

Hello my dearest beautiful,
I have taken heed to the things you said
The last time that you were in my bed, you asked that I choose solitude over the chaos of this world
I love the frivolities and the vanities of this world
I have chosen to walk this solitary path, for the fond admiration I have for you
Hello Muse, my dearest beautiful,
this path is of despair and forlorn
Farewell, as I go back to basking in this frivolous world laced with chaos.-
If you ever stop loving me
My love, set me free from your shackles
Let me go like all of your mistakes
It will hurt for a while, or longer
But, what will hurt the most is living in the shadow of what is no more.-
If you ever stop loving me for a fleeting second
Darling, would you let me know?
I never want to live in the delusion of your love for me
I want to be assured and reassured
That our love is not love which comes like the season
The kind which falls during fall
I want you to assure me of your undying affection
The one that won't die even upon my own death
A love that feels like tidal wave; so sublime
I don't ever want to be a hopeless romantic
A lost cause in the affairs of the heart
If you ever stop loving me
My love, set me free from your shackles
Let me go like all of your mistakes
It will hurt for a while, or longer
But, what will hurt the most is living in the shadow of what is no more.-
We drop fresh flowers at the grave
Fresh flowers which means life
We give life to the dead in times of grief
We watch sorrow take away life from us
While we mourn, others moan
And that's just how life goes
Tears, sadness, pleasure. Rewind

This piece is long overdue
I promised you a beautiful piece
But to me, you are the beautiful piece
A work of art so nicely curated
In your flaw, lies strength and courage
In your floor, lay my knees in admiration
Ifeanyi, you are all shades of gorgeous.-
You gave me a four leaf clover
All I asked was fair luck
I imagined you coming from behind with a bouquet of roses
It is the tiniest thing that truly matters
Goodluck and godspeed reigns supreme.-
Kamso,
My dearest, beautiful
You are a blend of perfection
You deserve a bouquet for every stride you take
Don't let the world treat you any less
Shine on Queen.
