YOUR PUNISHMENT

WHAT DO YOU WISH TO HEAR

I would ask you what you wish to hear  I have lived so many lives in my mind I would have asked you to close yours eyes and read this but how is that possible cos the mind sees deeper when the eyes are closed.  I would have told you how I became a brilliant sunrise that starts it all How I became the warm sunset that brings it all to a glorious end How I sometimes cry in the bathroom, silently and painfully.  How my jokes are always dead on arrival How I laugh the brightest and the loudest at the silliest of things. How I would torture myself to sleep How I imagined beautiful faces in different forms and shapes How I overcame my fears just with a push How I became fearless when I ought to be fearful I ask again what do wish to hear How I became a child from my mother's belle  How I became less approachable and more hated How I became the talk of the town  How I had friends that were never really my friends How I had gone to explore and gained nothing but failure...

Utterly Average

Utterly Average I am utterly average, brown skinned and a wide smile, I'm a tiny piece of cosmos, Living as human for a while I'd hide myself in the background, and I'm always left on my own but the most prettiest flowers, are the ones that grow alone You think, I don't fear losing people, and I am good at letting go?, But all day, I watch dead flowers, hoping someday they will grow. ~iwritesometimes 

A paradox worth living

Life is full of anomalies for using words to express When silence could do a better job And keeping memories where regrets keep following us When ignorance could be much blissful And having dreams where future controls our present When to exist is what matters the most Life is full of anomalies for what, We may be wanderers of the world But we need a place called home We need a sky to soar Yet a hand to hold We feel Just in chaos When peace could be a beautiful place Life is full of anomalies for what We find wisdom in paradox....

MIGHT BE

When he said he might be in love with me I didn't know how to answer  Perhaps it's because his words scream of uncertainty  But regardless ,I remained quite Desperate for him to correct his sentence  And say "I am in love with you" Cause the "might be" also means "might not"  I do not reply to his confession.  He said if he was ever to get married  He would love it to be with someone like me  And I don't know whether to be sad or happy  Cause all I heard was someone like, but someone not. I wish he would speak with conviction  Make a bold statement that might scare me  Or set me free from this state of distrust  It would be a gamble But I wish he would take the risk  Cause he thinks I'm worth risking for See, back when we had our late night talks  I remember the fog around him  Light enough to show me his features  But not light enough to show me all of him  I remember how he played with words Going around i...

I'll say it for you

I'll say it for you Cause I know many people can't say it for themselves A lot of us have dreams but fear failure  So we never open our books and let them collect dust on our shelves Mine was football, I made that decision when I was six I tried to write my path but God laughed cause he knew I didn't know how to spell So he gave me these words And with them I merge the gap between heaven and hell Reach into the soul of a human being and pulling it out so they can see it and smell I'll say it for you If you're broken, beaten down or soft spoken I'm here to remind you that if you woke up this morning you were chosing And if you are waiting for tomorrow you will always be dying cause you are never living in your moment, I'll say it for you If you've been hurt If you are the only one on this planet earth who could ever see your worth If they convinced you that your gift was somehow a curse If you've been a mistake or an accident for your birth If you...

White

Looking at the something for a long time can get to your head  I stared at the blank paper holding a pen with an enthusiastic hand  but an apathetic brain for so many days  I've lost count  I look at the white page  And I can hear the silent laughter  Taunting my lack of ingenuity But somewhere in that guffaw I can hear the I told you so's Aimed at the occasions  When my thoughts were vast, Limitless and unhindered  But I was too consumed by trivial matters to give them time, When ideas were knocking on the walls of my brain  To be set free onto the pages they crave  But I kept saying I'd do it later  Until eventually it was too late So I guess this  Is the price I'm left to pay  I'll sit patiently through the ridicule  And pray I come out of it sane  See, It's been a while now  I'm still trying to figure out  How something inanimate can haunt my memories  I can see the smile on the empty sheet whe...

Covid-19 Stress

Oh mother nature What else could we ask for We needed to explore We needed to expand Show us the way Oh mother nature We've brought upon us something It has given us a choice It has given us a part But still with a touch it oppresses us Forced to live without our loved ones  Trapped from the inside Condemned to say Goodbye forever Oh mother nature We should have known our place  We should have stayed in our place  Forgive us one more time Cos we have known our mistake  Chinwediana

Another Love Story

   Everyone has there own perfect example of Love, we create such fantasies in our head of how a perfect man or woman should be. Traditions has forced us to live with fear to love or not to be loved. Even if we didn't follow traditions our so called heart which we claim we calmly hear has forced us to. All this hardships people face in order to love or to be loved.... can I say they are worth it? A woman died out of starvation of love she felt she wasn't important if she didn't have someone a man to be precise to say "I LOVE YOU" one who hold her waist and kiss her like that will be the last. For her having love was as important as having air to breathe she didn't like the fact she had a love who would come and sleep with her "no strings attached" just sex she needed more, more attention, more love, more .... a woman that was ready to kill herself, wanting to leave herself, wanting to leave this world fulfilling a promise she so desired not to nulli...

NICKI MINAJ PETTY APOLOGIZES FOR HER HUSBAND AT CARNIVAL

Oh, Ken Petty? That ain’t nothing… He really just don’t be knowing. It must be hard being Nicki Minaj’s husband. People always grabbing at her and while most of them just want to show love… you never know who the cooky person with ill intentions might be. There are plenty of examples. Think Selena. Nipsey Hussle. Pop Smoke. Martin Luther King, Jr. Malcolm X. They get in close spaces and they can jam you up, so who blames a loved one for being on high alert. Even at carnival. The two are on a float this year at the Trinidad and Tobago carnival and everyone is enjoying their time on the floats, in costume, music pumping and behinds are jiggling.

Cara Delevingne Slams Justin Bieber For Blocking Her; 'Should Have Just Eaten The Bull Penis'

Justin Bieber recently made headlines when he was asked to rank his wife’s famous friends. But now it seems that his response may have reignited his feud with Cara Delevingne. In case you missed it, Bieber was recently a guest on  The Late Late Show with James Corden  and he played the game Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts. The game asks celebrities to either answer challenging and/or personal questions or eat truly disgusting things like animal intestines and/or genitalia.

Legacies Star Reflects on Landon's Journey From Sidekick to Hero: 'The Most Surprising Thing Has Been...'

Of the many storylines currently being juggled by The CW’s Legacies , one of the most surprising has been Landon’s rise from emo townie to full-blown phoenix.  And last week's episode took that journey to the next level, with Landon unlocking an impressive new ability (fire wings!) and embracing his heroic potential. “He doesn’t really know what defines a hero and what defines a sidekick, so he’s sort of throwing things at the wall and seeing what sticks,” Aria Shahghasemi told TVLine and other outlets during a recent visit to the show’s set. “He’s not the one who solves the problem… unless the problem is a math problem.” Legacies  waited 13 episodes to confirm that Landon is a phoenix, then another 14 to reveal that he can fly, so Shahghasemi has had plenty of time to speculate about what really makes his first-of-its-kind character tick. “The most surprising thing has been  when  [Landon’s] powers have manifested,” h...
