The Process

Lost in the worlds Worlds of indecision and inefficiency The vortex is pulling me in Sucking me in But then its all the same process Finding or be found Lose it all or gain some The same process Either way Living an excuse of a life You find a way to fight The suction effect And at that moment you have won The battle since you've been born That moment it's worth the victory Then you start again Living that excuse...

Silent Wish 3

As she heard the old school 'Here comes the bride' she knew deep in her heart that this was the best decision she has ever made in her 25years of existence, she slipped her slender hands into her fathers, then looked into his eyes before they took the step down the aisle, steps to her future. He was just a 3rd year student studying chemical engineering at the university of Ibadan, a good looking guy from a wealthy home, He has heard 'love at first...

We Need Zippers

Everything we read on paper or hear (quotes i mean) are just mere words till you feel it or till it talks to you. I've been hearing 'Talk less, Sin less' even the bible says "Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent, and discerning if he holds his tongue." (Proverbs 17:28). "When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise." (Proverbs 10:19). Really i never had the courage to Purposely talk less, ok i'm a talkative...

She had written in her journal...

Sitting at the waiting room, few minutes feels like hours, i sit 5 places away from my fate, the outcome of this 'consultation' decides my fate, my mind is anywhere but here what if.... 'No No i don't wanna think the worse!' Lemmie just be optimistic about this. It either comes out as a positive result or nothing.I close my eyes to say a short prayer which leaves me a lil' stronger but i can't shake that voice 'So u think a short prayer would erase ur past?' i'm broken again, i tink 'maybe i do deserve whatever the result would be, i've not exaclty...
