Put down a couple of quotes and short write ups over the years, decided to compile a few of them and share them with the community… I hope you enjoy my thoughts and more than anything, I hope you understand the circumstances that birthed these thoughts.
1
MOBILE CHEMISTRY
I look out the window anytime I'm in a car... So anytime anyone stares at me, I stare back at em hard... I look at them till we cross paths... I turn my head and follow their backs with my eyes... So they really think we got something going... Like some chemistry
2
INSECURE
And I'd rather I be consumed by the eternal darkness that blossoms within me, than share my troubles and be treated as a matter of public insecurity

THE GOOD OLD DAYS
So you read books?, Well I love them... Then who knows, we could get married some day, Get a house on an island, and compose the best of poems, read the most touching of novels... I'll tell you how beautiful you are every single day, and I'll tell our children how hard it was for me to get their mother... But believe me when I say... That no day, with you by my side... Will be called... "The good old days..." For eternity...is too short to enjoy with you...
To her…
Infinitely Yours

ETERNAL SECONDS
I feel like I'm in this personal space, where all that goes through my mind is my unending want for a never ending tomorrow... I feel like y'all should understand... But then I also feel like y'all would be too busy to even read this... Either way... I feel like living life for more than a day is such a drag and it would be perfect if I lived eternity in just a day... So I'd never have to experience waking up more than once .... So yeah... I guess I'm crazy

UNCOMFORTABLE NEHH…
I was always so sure that there were other versions of me, as intelligent and with all my memories... Created as clones to handle other tasks... Imagine my surprise finding out I'm one of the clones, and my original self is somewhere else sipping coffee and getting paid for my slow but sure journey towards death

WHAT WILL BE WILL BE
I can't keep the resignation from my tone when I speak of the future, when I explain that all that will be will surely be, and we are but pawns in this intellectual game called living, and I can't do anything to exterminate the pity in my gaze as I see Humans believing they have a conscious role to play in the endgame, that they survive through the choices they make, whereas they survive only because they're appointed time of death as portrayed in the divine script of Elohim is yet to come...

THE PERFECT STORY
I would start my little story a bit before all the pieces began to fall into place, before the unknown met the deadly... I'd start it in fact, from the diary of a little boy, not because he is in some twisted way, linked to the heart of the story, but rather because as he acknowledged in his diary entry, on the 16th of July, 'it was a perfect Monday morning in the calvary'... As young Adam, bent over his diary, spun one of the finest literary webs yet to be seen from a child his age

WEED TALK
I love you

POINTLESS STRUGGLE
Let it be a little lore, for the younger ones, and parables for the wizened folks, that life itself is a pointless struggle, and love, the most redundant of practices
10
HARMATTAN
Harmattan... Flip the coin and read the fates, it's all to come a tad bit late.,.
11
WOULD YOU?
Would you cry for me, if my life got short, if my soul left me... would you weep, if my dreams were ruined, if my body went cold...
12
DEVILS AND SAINTS
Maybe the dark is my favorite playground...
Cus saints lack the humor I'd find... Rolled up in a Devil's sleeves...
13
SMELLY SHOES
Broken score board, rusty hand bars, locked inside an old dusty court, nose mask girl right by my side, shaky feelings rush through me... Smelly shoes drift across the court, weird ass people holding dead conversations... These and many more are my thoughts as I hum softly the tune of the Valkyries...
14
ANGEL WAYS
To her who for all my life, I have endlessly adored....
That moment we kissed, oh how lovely it would be if my life began and ended at that exact moment... Bliss...
15
BUTTERFLIES AND BEES
I live half of my life in a dreamscape, one with a perfect version of me,one where my struggles fade away, I'm always the best version of myself... Is this dreamscape problem free?, definitely not!, it is far from problem free, instead it contains only those problems I am willing to solve, the problems that I solve to consciously strengthen my core. Do I wish I was born in this scape?, not at all, because then, I'd live half of my life in a dreamscape filled with unnecessary problems and hardship,one where I'm born in Nigeria, and on such a weak mind, I probably will break... Nothing funny happens in my real world, so you see me frown and cry when conscious of it all, then through it all I crack a laugh or a smile when my mind is gone to play in my perfect dreamscape... When all the different voices of criticism and hate and defamation drown out.
I live half of my life in a land, where the butterflies and bees never left...

HARMATTAN 2
Dancer girl jumps to the wrong tune, holds my gaze and falters again, the world too drunk to even notice, there’s something lost in the dancer’s step, the joy she claims to have, has no depth…

MIGHTY TERRIBLE, IT WILL BE
Imagine you were a doll, and imagine you were cursed, imagine you were to dance, imagine you were alone, imagine you loved me, nearly as much as I do you, imagine you cried, nearly as much tears as I do, imagine you died away from the me you loved, imagine I left, halfway at your funeral, imagine we met in the great beyond, imagine my gaze never picking you, imagine this wasn't your imagination, imagine... How Terrible that'll be..
That’s all for now, more to come soon :)
