Insecurity in Nigeria (A Poem)

A nation in despair, A nation in fear, Where the people can't sleep And the future is unclear. Insecurity reigns, Terrorism gains, And the people are left To fend for their lives. Kidnappings and killings, Rapes and pillaging, The country is in chaos And the people are begging. Where is the government? Where is the help? The people are crying out But no one seems to hear. A nation in despair, A nation in fear, Where the people can't sleep And the future is unclear.

Selfishness Unveiled

A heart that's so cold and cruel, A mind that's filled with greed, A soul that's so full of pride, It's selfishness we see. A person who takes more than they give, A life that's filled with need, A heart that's so full of hate, It's selfishness we see. A person who's never satisfied, A life that's filled with want, A soul that's so full of envy, It's selfishness we see. A life that's so full of pain, A heart that's so unkind, A mind that's so full of darkness, It's selfishness we see. A person w

Child of God

I yearned for wine 🍷 that joy may fuller be Found I sorrow burning in my sunken soul Without thee hath no greater joy man shouldest breathe I drown! I drown! deep in thy love - and give back that I didst owe! I bury now, in deep earth my pride - my ego That hast made thou hid thy face aloft I cast down my knees to the soil and my crown below! That joy mayest spring forth from my belly! Strike the sacred harp in ancient notes and sweet For thou moveth in still waters without ripples For thou de

FADE AWAY 1

All the memories that we've had Flying away like fireflies Dialogues of the time we met Keep replaying up in my head Reminiscing the memories I'll forever cherish I get lost and wonder afar off Tears flowing on it's own accord Gasping for air as it escapes my lungs Filled with sadness and pain If I was to shout, there was nothing to gain I could only wait as the memories dissipate I could only wait till my appointed fate Seeming calm on the outside But my heart is filled with fear Being troubled

Ray Of Hope

When darkness falls and shadows creep, And all around seems lost in sleep, A glimmer breaks through, a ray of hope, A light that shines, a way to cope. It beckons us to rise and fight, To push through fear and take to flight, To trust that dawn will soon arrive, And all that's lost, we can revive. The ray of hope is a guiding star, That leads us on, no matter how far, It fills our hearts with strength and power, And gives us courage for every hour. So when the world seems bleak and grim, And all

When I Grow Up

031 When I grow up, I'll be able to fight the monsters under my bed, beat them to a pulp, defeat them and be a victor. I'll stomp on them, like how they bruised my courage. I'll punch them hard to the point they'll fly away. When I grow, I'll be tall enough to climb the tree, hopping unto each branches to grab the fruits. I'll be able to stand still with my strong limbs. I'll be big enough to carry my body while dangling. When I grow up, I'll be able to fight my bullies, countering them without

The Inner Terrorist

The Inner Terrorist. By Drich The Poet. In my ups and downs It comes Confined in my place of solitude I’m a prisoner in myself Seeking salvation every single time I see they want to see it And de-capitalize me for pleasure's sake They call it addiction I call it a terrorist. A terrorist without a weapon. It comes knocking like an ordered Uber Dressed in a camo tank outfits With candies and lollipop for me If I try to hide, where will that be? From the sound of my alarm To the clap of my padlock

Alice and the hatters curse

Mad

The unheard noise.

They are always loud and present.

Wrath in a teacup

Tea, hot or cold, like a woman's wrath will flush through A woman's wrath is a cartel mystery A blend of gravel and wool So cold it burns bridges So hot it freezes passion A woman's wrath is tea An overwhelmed waitress serves the whole place, some passerbys even partaking, but the one who's order it is, just behind her, waiting and weary of being served I have been undone in needing calm and warmth I swore never again, deciding to find by myself But By the river you find them sweet and saucy Ben

Victory

A moment of triumph, A feeling of joy, A sense of accomplishment, A prize to enjoy. The hard work and dedication, The sweat and the tears, The long hours and effort, All paid off in the end. The goal was achieved, The dream was won, A victory of the heart, A champion has been born.

A Priceless Pi - To Mine Or Not To Mine

This Pi I mine Is mine Not mine really It’s hers She’s unaware Yet I see on her stories Taunt of those who mine A wise man told her Of how hopeless and lazy we are Conmen everywhere But the future I promised her And the love it grooms Is built on the Pi I mine While in turn she mines me her heart – maybe Faith If this mine never sees light, later At least her heart would have become mine Honey Pie A priceless Pi

An Advice About Life

HAVEN

Until the clouds cry out all of it's tears, Until the sun is out of its energy and can't give out light, until the moon and stars expire and become extinct. My love for you and our love will never die. As long as you can hear or see me, nothing else matters and it is more than enough reason for me to love you unconditionally. I'm human and can err, yet I would love to believe that with you in my mind and heart error is not part of my language. Even when you're far away from me your love makes me

The Perfect Rainbow

I stood watching out my window As the nighttime became dismissed The clouds and sky started out to glow There was no location now to hide caught among the floating clouds The solar’s rays exchange and streak ...

The last wolf

Beneath the fading moon's soft glow, The last wolf treads where shadows flow. A sentinel of ages old, In tales of wilderness, its story told. Majestic spirit, fierce and wild, Guardian of the night, undefiled. Legends woven through the trees, Whisper of strength in every breeze. Lone survivor of a primal land, Pawprints etched in the shifting sand. Eyes that hold the secrets deep, In twilight's realm, its vigil to keep. Oh, last wolf, your howl shall fade, But in our hearts, your memory's laid.

I Better Take My Leave

It's a sad story to be left alone in this world despite your effort to be a better person. This poem is full of emotion that I can't just live with.

The poem that often reminds me of my sorrow

We wear the mask that grins and lies, It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,— This debt we pay to human guile; With torn and bleeding hearts we smile, And mouth with myriad subtleties. Why should the world be over-wise, In counting all our tears and sighs? Nay, let them only see us, while we wear the mask. We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries to thee from tortured souls arise. We sing, but oh the clay is vile Beneath our feet, and long the mile; But let the world dream otherwise, We wear t

Pretty girl

Pretty girl Why so much pain Why does she feel powerless Why is God not helping her Her relationship life is wreaking and life itself is the worst Pretty unlucky girl Sweet and gentle, yet luck is never on her side To make ends meet she goes through pain. Pain knows her Tears know her Pretty unlucky, so graceful and full of life, but life is never on her side Should she unlived herself Will it stop the pain and suffering So fucked and depressed she is wondering the world alone Don't know what an
