Stay In The Light

burn love into air dust

and let us slowly

breathe it

up our nostrils

like cocaine

i know the fire 

in your eyes

find the river

on my lips

let us merge

the elements

and become one

water and fire;

the magic of

hot and cold...


burn love into

the surface of 

our hearts let 

the flames of

passion consume 

us completely  

I drink deeply 

from the river

of your lips 

temperatures 

molten us together

like metallic 

elements we

are liquified.


Goodnight my queen

Fantastic Garden


Your breath intoxicating 

My heart drunk in you

Love swirls deep satisfaction 

Perfume chains you and me, us, we

Our making love is sensational 

Luxurious this amazing arousal 

Sensitivity speaks, ecstasy flows


Your embrace ignited 

Sizzling tingles throbbing 

Our bodies become a butterfly cascade

Spinal sensations release endorphins 

Inches away our lips collide 

Quickly our bodies collapse 

Loud echoes of pleasures sound

This is creates our fantastic garden

Poem to a love one

 Oh Dear,

You light up my life like the sun in the sky.

Your smile and your laughter, so infectious and true,

I cannot imagine a day without you.


Your eyes sparkle bright like the stars up above,

And your heart is so warm and full of love.

You're the missing piece to complete my soul,

With you by my side, I feel whole.


Your beauty is like a work of art,

And your presence in my life is a treasure in my heart.

My love for you will never fade,

And in your arms, I know I have it made.


Dear, you are my queen,

My heart, my soul, my everything.

I promise to love and cherish you every day,

Forever and always, in every single way.


Good morning my queen

Two world's Alike

It was a rainy day, and the bus terminal was bustling with travelers rushing to their destinations. Among the crowd were two strangers, Amara and Jide. Amara had just graduated from college few years back with her fashion business her path way to billions, Amara was headed home after a stressful day to get clothing materials, while Jide was on his way back from his role as a manager for a big oil and gas firm.


As they waited for their buses which wasn't coming, They both decided to take a detour to get to their destination as time is of the essence, Amara with her baggages fought for Tired Jide to secure the last seat on a napep heading to Daleko. Amara and Jide struck up a conversation. At first, it was just small talk about the weather and their destinations, but soon they found themselves talking about their lives and ambitions. Amara talked about her dream of becoming a multi millionaire business woman, while Jide shared his passion for writing.


As they chatted, they realized they had a lot in common. Both had grown up in small towns and felt like outsiders in the big city. They both loved reading and shared a love for classic rock. Before they knew it, their buses arrived, and they said their goodbyes, promising to stay in touch.


Over the next few weeks, Amara and Jide exchanged emails and messages, discussing everything from their favorite books to their hopes and fears. They discovered that they had a deep connection and understanding of each other.


Months went by, and Amara landed a job in Jide's city. Excited to be closer to her newfound friend, she reached out to Jide, and they decided to meet up. They went to a local bookstore and spent hours browsing through the shelves, recommending books to each other and laughing at the silly titles.


Afterward, they went to a small café and shared stories over cups of coffee. It was then that they realized they had become great friends, thanks to their chance meeting at the bus terminal at Mushin on a rainy day.


Over the next few years, Amara and Jide's friendship blossomed. They shared many adventures, exploring new cities and trying new foods. They were there for each other through thick and thin, celebrating each other's successes and supporting each other through tough times.


As they sat on a bench in a park, watching the sunset, Amara turned to Jide and said, "You know, it's funny to think that we met at a bus terminal. If it weren't for that chance encounter, we might have never become friends."


Jide smiled and replied, "I know. But I'm glad we did. You're one of the best things that's ever happened to me."


Amara felt a warm feeling in her heart, knowing that Jide felt the same way she did. They sat in comfortable silence, watching the sky turn from orange to pink to purple, grateful for the unexpected friendship that had blossomed from a simple conversation at a bus terminal.

Reminiscing

It all began at the mall,

With beauty as bright as the moon, 

And symphonies to sustain a lifetime, 

Of slow kisses, cute smiles, I love You's

And promises of ever after.


From dreams to nightmares,

For my actions and inactions,

Of lack of commitment and divided halo's,

A burrow to our castle plan.

Which freed your butterfly from my cocoon.


Here I'm alone and reminiscing our past.

My lies you'd see through,

You (my gem) I'd never find again, 

I lost you to my faux stories.


I hurt the one I love the most,

If only I could rewrite us

On the sand of time,

Maybe this time I'd protect our names

From being blown away

By the breeze of my undoing.

MY MUSLIMAH

 Doubt I felt when, this year,

I heard her voice;

Confused. Shocked. I thought
I had failed her.

However, happiness hones me —

Gifted with a milky object from within.

Naughtiness is the language of her body.

A moment with her brightens my thoughts.

Her smiles would heal an ill nation.

She is a rose for whom I spite other flowers.

Unbeknownst to her, my inner self of true feeling.

Scared to touch her each time I come close.

A mirage, to me, she appears.

But she endows me spiritually, with reminders of solat —

My adhan, straight from Allah.

Yet unaware, she glows away darkness.


Innocence
is what i see every time I gaze,

Every time she looks away.

She's that artifact a man would like to own

She's like the cloud we can see, but can't touch;

Mature enough to make me a platonic friend,

But that is not all I ever wanted.
