Waking up in the morning has never been one of my favourites but in his arms it definitely was, with him I forgot there was a merciless bitch haunting me. All the kisses didn’t make me feel safe but I knew I was doing this for love, even though I already tried talking to Chineye but she didn't understand, I can feel her pain though but what can I say? Life’s a bitch! After months of being with her, everything has changed for me, she’s what I call perfection with a lot of forgiven imperfection. I opened the ring again for like the 100th time, it was almost 7:00pm , I couldn’t help but sing ‘it’s about to go down...omo i bad o..’ I was suppose to pick her up but she insisted she did come herself, waiting at the restaurant I kept glancing up and down, for I was sure in the next few hours our lives was going to change forever. He texted me that he did send a white limo to pick me up here...’WoW’ ....I was wondering the kinda surprise that...

I don’t know if you can read Auras but I can. That very night I met Mercy, hers was different- Simple, sophisticated, happy and breath- taking, soothing to the bones was her presence. I wished I could see her again and again but I knew it was like playing with fire. For Chineye, my lover – I mean partner wouldn’t let that happen, I don’t know if she could feel what I felt but she was calm, shy and never looked at me in any special way. Days passed with her on my mind and finally I got to see her again but she was with chineye. I wished I did run into her alone but unfortunately I just never did, until that faithful day I found her on a social network and before I knew it we became good friends, our Auras melted together like they were meant for one another but she was scared Chineye was going to find out about our friendship. Mercy tried all she could to make sure we stopped talking but what can I say? Fate has its own way of working things out. Before I knew it I ended the pa...

Hmmm *coughs*, I’m a god here, Right here, I am, there are others like me, But I’m one of the most powerful, *sooobbssss* But here I lay on bare sand, With no shelter over my head, *coughs* Am dying, and they don’t care, Rags I wear as clothe, While they shine in their Versace clothing, *takes deep breath* They let sun bathe me and the rains wash me, Yet I made those ingrates what they are, I soak their land with riches, Nurture them with wisdom, Without me they wouldn’t be there, *cleans tears from cheeks* God sent I am, But they have chosen to be ‘fingered’ by Lucifer, Ogun- god of iron, is doing his part, The children under us have been rendered wisdom less, Some have even met death, All because of them, *tries to stand but falls back* Dying of thirst I am, But still they use tanks of wine to wash their hands, Right before my face, *coughs harder* I’m sick, I’m crying, I’m bleeding and I’m pleading, For their future is at stake, The god of iron...

Frustration and anger, Aint pals, Off the clif can they both drive you, Frustration can drive you to tears, Anger will keep them till its gone, Frustration will break you beyond fixing, Anger will strengthen your madness, Frustration will make you weak but awake, Anger will make you strong and stupid, Frustration and anger, Are demons with wings, Conquering isn’t impossible, These demons just come out of nowhere, Frustration will make you seek death, Anger will make you help death, Frustration and anger, In hell their palace lies, Its your choice to rot with them, Or throw them into the pit of hell.

This is for all those who have lost their life to suicide.May their souls rest in perfect peace.Amen. You think those that commit suicide are dumb , Maybe they are, Maybe they are not, Maybe everything just chokes them, Maybe they j ust forgot how to live, And you forgot about them, Maybe everything they see h urts, The rising of the sun, The sight of people, Maybe it all hurts, Maybe it tears them apart from within, They say God doesn't give us more than we can handle, Maybe they woke up, Maybe they lost all the strength in them, Maybe they assume God  wants them back, Maybe they don't have anything they want, Maybe they fear it will never change, Maybe you, Yes you, Maybe you judge them, Maybe when they scream you block your ears, Do you still think they are dumb, Maybe it's you, Yes you, Maybe it's you who is dumb, Maybe it's you that can't read them, Maybe it's you who will save that life, Yeah you, Maybe you have to start li...

This is the end, This pain is so unbearable, I close my eyes , Then count to ten, I can feel the earth move and shake, Then am compelled to feel nothing, Nothing i feel, The silence and peace drilled into my bones, finally the pain is over, Over the pain is, Second chance i seek thou, But dwelling in this world i seek more, And then, Came this loud noise, My peace has been disturbed, I could feel my heartbeat, i could feel my head pound, I could feel life, I open my eyes to see people in blue, Doctors they are, I look out,i see my loved ones, I could see relieve and tears of joy, Then i forced a smile, Life is good though, But the dying feeling was better though, But today, I Live, I Live, I Live, To Die Another Day.

Richard and Mary both met during a basketball game, it was love at first sight for them, few months later they started dating and about a year into the relationship their love was stronger than that of Romeo and Juliet. Mary enjoyed sending text messages but George disliked it. One night while Richard was preparing for bed, he and Mary had been text chatting and then he was fully tucked in when another message came in and knowing it was Mary he was quite sure she was just going to tell him how much she loved him so he neglected it hoping to read it the next morning. About an hour later, Richard was still wide awake he did have trouble sleeping and then he decided to read the text Mary sent him and it said “BOO, AM IN FRONT OF YOUR HOUSE I JUST GOT HIT BY A TRUCK NOT SURE AM GOING TO MAKE IT AND MY LAST WISH IS TO SEE YOUR FACE BEFORE I DIE, AM WAITING....I LOVE YOU” Richard felt as if Hell just descended on earth then he ran downstairs and he met her l...
