We Keep our love
In little pockets
As Honey bees,
We glow like Fireflies
In the summery evening
Of the Nigerian rainy season;
Loving you,
Is beautifully easy.
In soliloquy
I delve into the depths of myself;
Weird,
To see yourself within yourself
And realising
No reflection is more true.
Walled by gates of emotions
To which someone else
Possess the keys,
She unlocks and locks them
However she would please
But that's no bother -
Pretty please,
It makes a well-formed tease.
Like Chai
Silky, rich; smooth & soothing
I'm ready for this beginning of no ending.
Even in the distance
And tempests to withstand
It all simply makes me understand
Like the snail and its shell
Nothing is more beautiful;
O.re. o.kan mi (the friend of my heart)
E.ni a f'o.wo. o.la ke. t'o f'iwa s.'e.s.o. (one nurtured by the hand of wealth but who is beautified by her character)
Than knowing together,
we still stand;
Today, tomorrow and always.
