UNTOLD EMOTIONS

 In whispers of wishes, I yearned to take a steady flight, to share my emotions with the stars shinning bright, yet my lips remain gagged, afraid to convey,  the love in my heart, I would delay. oh, the early chances I let slip away, As assumptions only deceived and led me astray, even when procrastination grasp tightened its hold, while the untold emotions remain untold. Hmmmmmm!!!! if only, just maybe, I dared to confess, our destinies entwined our hearts to caress, together we would have built walls, strong and love, into a future with you where love would guide us through, yes! my love is pure and true. © Peter Phinian Chidalu 2023

How will i tell mum

Image
How will i tell mum That the seal has been broken  The beautiful castle, now in void That her advices i nailed to the cross And my heart i gave to infatuations. How i tell mum That my ears were shut at her gospel  And the key to them are flattering lies  That a stranger opened my veil And my girly pride has been stolen. How will i tell mum That her promises to me are murdered  The nuptical joy has been curtailed the armless pride she would wear  Forever shreded and unstitchable .

When I Am Gone

Image
When i am gone  Pls swallow your tears  Reserve your tears  Because in it lives no care. When i am gone  Don't gather for my sake  When i needed your help, you acted like a snake Everything about me you hate. When i am gone  Keep your warmth at your doorstep where i dwelled, Showing me no care  Days and nights under the heavy rain you left me wet.  When i am gone, don't pretend you care Because when i failed,  I became a perfect example to others  Shutting your eyes to other gifts i had.  When i am gone  Never show love to my grave  Because when i seeked love, You never cared about my ugly face.      When i am gone  Tell my brother who saw my speech as blunders I never wish them ill I pray they live in peace I pray they achieve all i would miss.  When i am gone  Tell dad not to cry because I know he never cared  Even mum played favouritism  Tell them to never come crying to my grave...

The Blue Sea

Image
 At first it was calm  As blue as the sky Inviting us to dive in. Our bodies warm  hoping they it won't stop The sea shown in its glory. Like a onion bud Like a cube of maggi It unfolded it's mystery.. As fast as the speed of light it moved As fast as a cheetah  It tore my friend apart The 4 headed snake... Blood glued to my body like makeup Like a statue i was still  Tears flowing down my chicks like a river.. Like a coin I was tossed out of the river  Where i felt alive and dead.

My Yellow flower

Image
                   We met when it was cold The trees waved in recognition  The incessant chirpping of birds came to my notice. A beauty to behold  Different from others  Her auroma filled the air.  My yellow flower  Plucked at a young age Death snatching her away from me.  My yellow flower  Irreplaceable as my existence  Forever you would be missed.

I Am Scared

Image
  I Am Scared  Have you seen the beauty of the rainbow  I bet they aren't as beautiful as your eyebrows  I am scared not of your meekness.  But for the world not to use it against you. I am scared because  I have spent hours staring at the moon and sun But not as much as i have spent staring at you...  I am scared  Not of your lips  But of my norms. I am scared  Not of my rivaries But how fast i can lay down my life for yours in a blink of an eye.  I am scared  Not of your beauty that radiates like the sun But your words that are shooting arrows.. 

Birthday poem

Image
 If I were a mad poet  I would have carved your name Chinazom on the face of the moon So the world would know how beautiful you are.  If i were a mad poet  I would have seized the air and caged it just for the world to recall today  If peradventure a poet goes mad  He will walk above the sea and challenge the river goddness just to see you smile.  If i were a mad poet  I Would stare at the sun and smile  And command it to keep you warm.  If i were a mad poet  I would paint your face with the rainbow  Stare at it while appresing nature.  Happy birthday Asssumpta.
