TO KNOW I GOT YOU (WONDER WOMAN)

Omo, you dey make my heart dey beat

Thinking of you, my mind dey sweet

Like Chike I wan dey run to you

Dem say life na suru

But for you I be Eran Nuru


I still smile when I think of you

Revisit talks I had with you

I dey bless God because of you

Like which material he use make you?


Not perfect but we need to be

In case you're wondering, same applies for me

But I know enough to not judge me

Like I wouldn't want to judge me


You're like a dream come true

Everyday I wanna shout out to you

You remind me of Queen Esther

You're one great queen, remember!


That mercy and dear compassion

You are my friend, my dear companion

Relating don't have to be romantic

Forgive me my dear antics


But it's good to know I've got you

Someone brave and down-earth humble

You no dey do gra gra, you no dey fumble

See how freely I speak with you?

Means the world to me, true!


You're a woman but you are my bro

And I respect you kindly, aburo..

For a very dear friend, and her wealth of kindness. It's been an honour to know her truly. This is based on and dedicated to her as well. Thank you for all you do Bella Fuego.

THE SONG OF TES

 Dear woman with a beautiful soul What is it that ails you so? I've searched for you in far places Are you passing through some difficult stages? She said: It's a long story I hardly can tell But the road is long, said I, please do tell Last time I saw you, I could tell There was something wrong, so pray tell And she uttered to me a parable You see, I went hunting with a friend To better our chances, we hunted the same Indeed, we were fair hunters of game. But things took a turn for the worse I thought we were friends, whatever that was She left the hunt and turned on me Left the hunt and turned on me Took the gun and turned on me Used as bait, she turned on me I became the hunted, it dawned on me.. My heart was full, it nearly burst! My soul was grieved, it nearly burst! Overflowing with pain, I nearly burst! So I stayed away from Mount Zion Finding solace in a dark room God sees my heart, he knows I'm mad I'll stay away, my heart is bad. And I stayed away for two whol...

A PLACE

We all need a place, where we can be less perfect  Bottle our insecurities, and let it out in private Dine with our doubts and pick bones with faith It can be a person, it can be a place  It can be something we'll never do again. It could be healing, it could be coping  It could be something to help you keep moving  Life is a lesson, and people are blankets  Life is transient, and memories are strength Life is transient, and memories are strength. Like a plastic bag I kept some messy things  On the outside, it was fine But inside was less pleasant  Messy, not dirty, but serving a purpose  To keep my environment clean And help arrange my thoughts as I cleaned: Resented the baggage, but it grew on me And I came to realize its usefulness  We all need a place we can be less perfect  To figure out our weaknesses or find our strengths—   It's okay if we're lonely along the way  Or weak by ourselves when we can't find help Life is a l...
