THE WRITER'S PERSPECTIVE

I met this girl, she fine. I got her pin, we pinged I like this girl, she's amazing. Everything about her; speechless She likes me, I know she does. This one thing, she got a man There is chemistry, lots of it. Caution is needed, I told myself Things got on smooth, we had a date. The day was over, but we just started Some point we got close, knew her beyond her glow. The third spark in a long time, yes this is right No guilty pleasures, I thought to myself. Things got on, better than we first met She knows me, in the shortest of time me-her. Now it was just us, Feelings manifesting...... Then something happened, we had a moment. This must be good, I hoped it would Reality set in, our eyes are open. This one thing, she still got a man Things got awkward, She makes her decision. I play my cards, she's not convinced Deep down the thought: if circumstances were different. To let go, to hold on Should I stay, should I go. Now it's just me, She's made her cho

She’s jovial, she’s smart, and she’s interesting She doesn’t know much but always open to learn I find her very captivating and I’m attracted to her personality She says I make her laugh; she thinks I’m funny She knows I got her back; she knows I like her She’s my friend, I’m her friend She likes it that way, but I want more She knows how I feel, I respect her decision She not ready she says; she’s already taken, I know Maybe one day she’ll come around; maybe she’d reconsider I just hope I won’t have moved on…

I do not know what it feels like living a day without a Dame not because am lame rather because am not yet married .It is even more difficult imagining a day without your first lady if you aren't in President Jonathan's shoes. Let's ask the President to recount his continuous experience of well over 3 weeks without his Omalisa. In less than 24 hours,Nigeria will celebrate her 52nd Independence Anniversary from the British Empire yet with ubiquitous colonies of oppression littering the country. A country of an approximate 170 Millions of people comprising of 250 ethnic groups with varying languages and customs,creating a country of rich ethnic diversity and estimated and catalogued 521 languages,this number includes 510 living languages,two second languages without native speakers and nine extinct languages. The seventh most populous country in the world and accounts for about 18% of the population in Africa,now the 12th largest producer of petroleum

Bible characters have always being a very interesting topic. I get to read and immerse myself into the story and lives of the various characters God used to show forth His glory. This post is directed to Christians; youths and adults alike, and also to anyone who is willing to be touched by it. I do have a thing for Joseph though. Yeah Joseph…... Joseph was a lot of things: He was young, in turn innocent and naive. He had a dream, which turned out be his vision and destiny. He was loved by his father, envied by his brothers. He was sold, he slaved, and finally he rose from the ashes and became a model for Christian youths today. My focus on his story is when he found himself in the lair of the seductress/temptress. Many youths/adults alike today will never pass on sex. In fact it has become a standard for being a man, so whenever one has the chance to prove him/herself worthy to their friends, they heed its call. Well as for me I beg to differ just like Joseph did.

I’m not like the other guys that sweet talk I’m no good at it, no, not at all I’m not them who tell you what you’ll like to hear; lies Unh! Unh! Words like that aren’t close to my lips Everything I say to you is everything I feel I may not be able to tell you in perfect words, but I can express it by showing ‘I love you’ is never enough; in fact they’re mere words There is so much bottled up inside of me, and I just want to share it Share it only with you To be honest, I can’t swim across the pacific for you Definitely, I can’t climb to the top of any mountain, I’m no climber Of course you wouldn’t expect me to walk through fire Sincerely I cannot promise you only good times Bad times will come; it doesn’t mean us the end But of all this, I can promise I will be with you now and until death parts I’ll be your shoulders when you cry I’ll carry you on, when it seems you can’t go any further I’ll be there the times you need me the most You would b

There's nothing like the old days, some how it just seems better than now. So much for the 21st century: I remember back in the days when i was a little boy The TV was always fun to watch, in fact it was all i ever wanted to do all day after school There was a time when we got value for money I remember when transport fare was five naira I reminisce of the days when songs made sense and had meaning I can never forget my friend and I fighting war battles with toy soldiers Everyday I remember it just like it used to be. I remember the days when electricity wasn't this bad Once upon a time the Super eagles were a great team There was a time when the word 'sex' was sacred I cannot but remember Christmas growing up I will never forget the day when Nigeria beat Brazil; A moment to be endeared I remember the time the beach used to be a family affair There was a time when Nigeria had integrity I remember the days when life was a lot more fun and happy Why can't we just go

Today I set out,on a journey of love and friendship Which ever one, its hers to decide,whether she feels like I do or otherwise Today is the day if it was worth all the effort I'm at her door,like I'm supposed to knock But my hands are numb,God let my will not fail me now Thoughts in my head;we'll do it just like we have rehearsed alright! To my reality,really,I am starting to choke, right in front of her door My legs trembling,it feels like just falling to the floor NO!NO!NO!,there's no turning back now,anyways, it might be too late already. Make today your own chance,be steady Here goes,knock!knock!knock!mmph! The door opens,there she stands in all her awe and splendor From her face,its already like she knows,probably she already has her answer My heart is racing,my mind is blank,my body's weak,but the time is now I try to look into her eyes,but the floor is all I keep staring at The same old thought keeps coming back,the one that makes me scared,happy,and at the

When I see you,you make me want to stop and stare You know it's amazing how you cause traffic just by the way you dress I'm looking;am mesmerized by the clothes you wear Honestly you make a man fall in-love at first sight Every time you walk by,you always look your best Any time you come around me,I get so restless Everyone and everything round me gets blur Your appearance alone gives me clarity At the same time,I open my mouth to speak but all do is stutter Oh! how silly of me,what was I thinking; that was so lame All you do is smile at me And this got me thinking,maybe you also do feel the same At last I find the courage to speak Please! I wouldn't want you to freak To be sincere,this is a first for me Seriously,I don't know how it goes but I don't want to ruin my chances with you either It's funny when people say love is blind,as for me I can see I can see beauty and dignity inside and out I can see grace and purity all round you I see pe

Lately I've been having bitter-sweet emotions,all of which are clusters of my thoughts. It keeps changing shapes and sizes causing a transition At a point it all seems clear,in another while comes the buts... There's this rush,sudden rush of ecstasy I feel inside Knowing she likes me,likes my company but there's another hunch that tells me like a coin there are two sides Now I am torn in two,divided by my own feelings I guess I'm love confused. I am pacing up and down my room,planning and arranging my lines Believing she'd feel the same way too Its one thing to know love,and its another to be sure its love That's were my thoughts gets gibberish,especially when love is involved Now I'm checking my contacts,searching out her name The one that makes my heart skip beats Its time to know if she feels the same I feel a rush of blood to my head bringing on the heat Still my mind is not made up yet She loves me,she loves me not keeps popping in and out of my head

Honestly I have always been scared of marriage; yes I want to have a wife and children too, but whenever I start to think of the responsibilities it entails or requires, it sends a cold shiver to my spine. In recent events that mentality was changed and it brought about this new revelation that I’m about share. I was humbled and honored to be part of the groom’s entourage of my very good friend last weekend, and it was lovely. It wasn’t a luxury wedding, or a media hype event, but in its own way it was fulfilling, great and brought reflections to my heart. Marriage is a sacred sacrament, and institution of God. The union of two people, two souls becoming one, united in their differences. Marriage was instituted by God to allow man experience true love, sacrifice, and divine purpose, but today this institution has been corrupted disregarded and made mockery of, and man is the culprit. Human beings have abused this sacred rite and have for a long time turned a blind eye to its true

The heart is like a soft spot,a sensitive organ It gives life to a man,it's what makes us human We try our best to protect it at all cost A pause in  its beat and life is lost The heart has it issues,one nobody can control,only follow The decisions taken from the heart is what makes a man What makes us what and who we are The heart of a man is his final advocate,the one who defends his course Maths is solved using the brain,so are other activities Beyond our intellectuality,there is the soft core The one that makes us individually different Its usually felt as feelings; feelings of hate,pain,joy,hope,despair, fulfillment,and love The decisions we make with our hearts is what makes us who we really are it's that which shapes us as individuals So,guard your hearts,because out of it comes the issues of life Be careful what you feed it,because out of the abundance of the heart,the mouth speaks. Always guard your feelings,for what a man speaks in his heart is what defines him.you.

When I was learning the art of driving, my mom wouldn’t let me on the major road (the express).  She would say that I am not yet good and I would reply ‘there is always a first time abi’. Really, that is the basic truth and reality of life, there’s always a first time in every phase. A first time to be born; happens only once, a first time to crawl, walk, run, and even your first day at school. As a little boy, one of the scariest first times was always the first day at school, and that is because we don’t really know what we’re getting into, or the type of other kids we are going to meet. But as time goes on us as human beings, it’s in our nature to adapt eventually. We get used to the cycle or system, and that I say is a stepping stone to the beginning of ones journey in life. First times aren’t always easy, but it must be taken or done, and cannot be avoided. In general, most people have developed this phobia for ‘first times’, so they tend to hide back in their shells thus
