Love; who are you?


Hello love,
Talk to me and don't give me that look on your eyes.
Could you listen to me this one last time?
So Love, let me ask too, what is your Résumé? Apart from making my heart desires what else do you do?

Like, do you cycle on Saturdays?  Are you a fan of coffee? Talk to me, let the answers reach me for I thought I knew you Love until I met her. Her that does me very differently, see its half past one and she is the only one gracing my mind.

I know you know her by name. For me Sincerely, I really don't know much but I know she can dance, write and act so well. Love, why do I keep falling in love with the theatre? Is there an operation coming my way,?

You talk of coming with butterflies that fill the stomach, then why am I always hungry for her? You boast of making time freeze in ice, but why do Sweat invade my pores anytime our debates get so heated?

Love, are you a scam? Do you  deal with second hand stuff, for I have been having numerous second thoughts lately. I thought I knew you love, I thought you are the greatest commandment.

Tell me about you, your modus operandi. How do you get things done? Why do you keep coming through the backdoor? Aren't you a visitor in these ruins of mine?

Lastly,
Love if she is the one for me, then prepare a space for two, you know am a Naiboi and all that I want is for her to be my formulae

Artful Deception.

That morning, I stood rooted to the tiled floor with my hands on the poorly done window grills. I had been examining the structure that we called home. The Sun was lazy, casting weak monotonous rays on the ground. It had sufficiently rained the previous night and the air was still fresh.  Since my childhood, I had enjoyed the petrichor, it had a way of pumping life into my dead hopes, and couldn't wait for a few droplets of rain to hit the ground. It was a moment I always craved for. Half past seven in the morning, if not for the birds chirping so melodiously I wouldn't have travelled back to reality. "Normal is boring." I said to myself reaching for my phone that was religiously playing my favorite Bob Marley playlist. Nobody can stop reggae. The tweets that day were not as snappy as I would have wanted. Something was eating me up but still I couldn't figure it out, at least not at a time when Bob was reassuring that things would be alright. Music to me had alway

Please Get Tired.

I write, You notice, You assume, I get disconnected And curse. " It's hard to show love to a stone" of no worth it is  making love to a marble, Shinny and elegant, Only adapting to the degree of my loving when in the same room And nothing is the same when we hug and part ways. I write You marvel Share it to friends And say "That was master class" You find it hard to read between the lines. Not born for the art, so you wont relate Our connection is relative, Like an uncle to a niece It's hi when we meet and high time when we don't. I notice You care less I get disconnected I miss her But who listens? I refuse to build a foundation on a forced connection I don't want to end up losing myself when you finally slip away like she did. Please get tired, and let me try to win her love back. I write Get tired And hope That if tomorrow ever comes with the darkness it left with, Then I would sit and wait for her to come aroun

If Yesterday was Tomorrow.

And, if yesterday was tomorrow, What would you have done differently? Would you write that which the mouth was even afraid to whisper? Be a little bit poetic and feed the world with feelings, Just like any other slave of the pen? If yesterday was tomorrow_ Would you let the sun set with your heart still hurting? Would you  still call men dogs Just because a few like bones like you do? If yesterday was tomorrow, Would you talk of how it never comes And sing, hoping that You finally became a star? Would you share the last piece saved on your diary? Or, you would just have written another piece to entertain the skeletons in your closet, those that really never come out? If yesterday was to come after today would you still be talking of a having gruelling day and still seat and swipe your gadgets all night long lost in the virtual world? If yesterday was the day after today, Would you still claim to ride with your friends, Would you still talk of them the same way? For m
