Trapped in your spell

 Trapped in your spell

........

You got me in your spell

I'm trapped right in your trap,

Your enchanted arms laid this trap

A trap I could always fall for.

Whatever you wish 

I am willing to do,

Whatever you say

I'm willing to listen 

Whatever is best

Only you know 

Just be careful with me 

I'm but yours to command..

My bones you've trapped 

My thoughts you've erased,

All I think about is just you 

If ever I want out

You know what strings to pull

So where else can I go 

If not back to you.

Like a voodoo doll 

You control me,

Like ancient sorcery 

You kept me trapped 

Oh what else 

What else could I do

My heart is not mine anymore 

This is where my thoughts end

And yours begin.

Here are the signs 

The signs that lead to you,

My every moment starts with you 

My every thought paints you 

Do I continue, do I fade away 

All I've known is you 

So release me lest I'm lost 

My heart is gasping for air 

Yet I drown more

This enchantment leaves me weak 

A weakness I'm bonded with 

Please release me.

*I AM A DRUG ADDICT*

*BY FRANK GURU*

I am high, high for the need to plant a seed of weed just as Sid did.

I am high, high that my blood flow becomes slow for I see no flaw for it to show

You see these drugs, these drugs open my eyes as I see no rugs

They silence every voice I hear no bugs

I fail to box her for my trouser sags

With no tags in a bag I elude the rag

I am high and I and I say hi because I am a high

So high that I fail to call-kane for only my cola-coke can

So high that I behold a black label holding two keys just to see strawberry lips being labelled as a brutal fruit

So high that I fail to say hi cause I can marry-Juana you see

I am a drug addict, no not the one with an edit allbeit I choose not to take a seat because of the heat

I am a drug addict, addicted to the meth that induces a birth of release I feel to soothe me on this earth

My blood intoxicates a mosquito it's a tequila shot made red hot

My blood pressure is high like I and I it fails to hi

Whether it is in plain sight or at night my plight is a sniff to overcome my frieght oh I am I high

With these pills bally chills as my soul it steals

It's an escape that heals with need of therapeutic hills

I am a drug addicted, addicted to find a muse of which I use no blues as my body I choose to abuse do you traduce my queues?

I see the pain within of which I conceal with this sin

I wish to be seen not because of where I have been

I want to be washed clean

But without my tools I am unseen

I am an addict because I find comfort that I fail to resist

I pray but these demons persist and I insist

Let them win so you can call me a drug addict

*JUDAS' KISS*

*JUDAS' KISS*

*BY FRANK GURU*

A table for two please!

Pardon me a table for me and you please

Can that be done with ease?

Is it possible without a lease?

Awesome so a table for two please!

I took a seat with friend to grab a bite for the FRI was removed though I didn't think it would END my dear friend

My flaws you heard, with my mind you played a friend whom just like me was a nerd yes that's well said do not put it to bed

Secrets were shared crying together yes we dared but whoever cared it was just us

A table for two please!

A table for the idiot who opens up to a sheep in wolves clothing

A table for two please!

A table for the son termed a bastard because he is a retard not to be mentioned in your ballard for it you don't will

A table for two please!

A table for me and you

Like a broken glass the word sorry fixed no wounds for the pieces were to scattered to be made whole again

A friend in need is a friend indeed, a friend indeed is a friend to weed, a friend to weed is a friend with no seed in his creed yes in deed a friend in need is a friend indeed

We sat at the table as I poured my soul out to ears, tears fell from my eyes along with my fears

I told you I was victim of abuse but you chose to refuse as you wouldn't traduce my dues for I was of no use to dues as you watched them burn my bruise with loose screws they distorted my cues

I told you I was raped like a good friend your mouth was untapped the words of hope in you escaped you kept silent because as a man the pleasure mattered even though my dignity was battered

A table for two please!

Yes a table for you dear friend, yes you the one reading this.

You took my words as art when I was in turn being torn apart and broken at heart because I failed to be blunt

You took my suicide claims as fragmented when I failed to reside within the stride of which I always hide

Dear reader, I have been depressed since I knew that feelings had to be expressed

I have been betrayed by my own heart for my soul it hasn't blessed

I have been cursed painted with a canvas of dull colors maybe because I am a black sheep

Yes a black sheep filled with ruin and disgust

Left with nothing but dust for his lust was last and not in the past

A black sheep who's been a burden since birth a black sheep with whom you all ate with but forgot his name but somehow I am to blame

Dear friend I told about it all on the supper which was our last

You exclaimed "Praise God!" But stood enjoying your sin

As you read this dear friend remember, the last time you heard my voice, when you saw my face, when you spoke to me remember it all because it was aswell the time I existed

When time came to show your worth you made me regret my birth

You sold me out of this earth, with a show of love to me but a sign of death to them on my cheek you placed your lips and gave me JUDAS' KISS

GOODBYE DEAR FRIEND ENJOY YOUR MEAL FOR IT WAS MY LAST, I ONLY WANTED A TABLE FOR TWO PLEASE!

THE JOURNEY OF A HUMANITARIAN

Title : THE JOURNEY OF A HUMANITARIAN

The journey of exploring humanity through poetry,

Where the mind is without fear.

Wonderful vibes that reciprocate beauty that lies in the soul,

Transgressed the parameters of unique creativities.

While thinking that life bestows divine source of joy,

Happiness multiplies through compassion and empathy.

In sharing, caring and sacrificing ,

To bring cheerfulness in other's lives through giving.

The smiles that bloom after decades,

Where storms have zipped their voices.

Where atrocities and hunger have demarcated a black hole,

For their sorrows and plight to meet challenges .

Hands that cradle their sullen , tormented souls,

To be cheerleaders and eager to embrace them.

Unstoppable pursuits that motivate to plough humanity,

Sprinkling the kindness and humility.

Thereby expunging the crossroads,

Where laughters revive and heal through regular strokes.

Understanding the innocence who are bereft of priviledges,

Discriminations have embossed " underpriviledged " in many visages.

Even those who cannot dare to cross all odds,

Those who cannot overcome their destined handicap.

Those who are inflicted with fatality,

Where the tears flow like rivers of horror and vulnerability.

The journey begins to soothe their scars,

Through my poetry I want to be their cheerleaders.

My hands will embrace them with solace and succour,

My verses would enliven their vigour and vitality like a helm to procure.

*Time is Up*

The clock ticks on, the hours slip away

Our love's expired, and there's nothing to say

The flame's gone out, the fire's lost its spark

Time is up, our love's embarked

On separate paths, we'll walk alone

The memories linger, but the love's gone home

We said forever, but forever's come and gone

Leaving only echoes, where love once belonged

I remember laughter, tears, and endless nights

But now, only silence, and a fading light

We tried to hold on, but it slipped right through

Time is up, and I'm left here, thinking of you

The final goodbye, the last kiss, the last fight

It's over now, and I must take flight

Into a new dawn, where love will bloom again

But for now, I'll wander, through the heart's sharp pain

Time is up, the moment's passed

Our love's history, forever to last

In memories, in dreams, in the heart's deep core

But for now, I'll let go, and walk out the door.

Carnal'mity

In this

Era of endless dopamine bliss,

Where purpose starves,

For pleasure’s fleeting sake.

The fool’s

Conquest, a glittering vain.

Moments untouched by soulful plea.

A fleeting touch, a hollow gleam,

...echoes haunt where once was dream.

He struts

And preens, a peacock in the dust,

Believing power blooms from lust.

A few

Swipes and textspeak,

Thighs yield to a digital caress.

No long siege to wage, no whispered

Vows upon a moonlit page.

...flesh surrenders to a shallow light.

Stories often

Told of lavish gifts,

Of pixel’s impulse to buy

A moment that scrawls away.

Each stolen

Moment, a fleeting embrace,

Defying time, defiling grace.

Yet with each breathless thrill,

The soul faint and hurled as

...vital essence squandered, on barren fields.

As silence

Falls on the descending years,

On hollow echoes, and unshed tears.

Deep within, a whisper calls,

A silent

Scream, a weary gaze,

As echoes of truth sting at

Years dissolved in passion’s haze.

A tale

Of fractured fortunes,

Sealed within a short-stay room.

A man of substance, seeking fleeting grace,

...entangled in a shadow, cold and grim.

Like Ataga

Before, a price unseen,

A lifeblood drained, as

Pleasure claimed its due

...on Chidinma' bangled stride.

Till then

In the realm of words, our hearts entwine,

Where wine and swine are woven into a basket of stupidity

A bond so strong, it transcends time and space, milking the brian into insanity 

Through emotions and thoughts, we connect and align, telling the truth about our loss and our iniquities

Our souls speaking a language that's hard to replace,like the wild fires of the 1980s sweeping the sins of our vicinities

In this toposphere of love and understanding the atmosphere of our connection to nature

We find solace and comfort, we sew the cloth of unity where religion and region was empty dustbin,we took the pill of culture

Our stories intertwine like the threads of a tapestry, history unfolds doctrines blindfolds, as love ruled the heart of two

A beautiful narrative of friendship, pure and grand, a bone marrow flow through to our heart creating magnificent magnetic field too.

Till then, my friend, may our words be the bridge,

That spans the distance between our hearts and minds, don't call on any emmgency lines

May our connection remain strong and unwavering not to sublime

A beacon of hope, a shining light that never dims or declines."

Forged from Cupid's Flame

Forged from cupid's flames

is a love so strong,

one that outshines Aphrodite

his bow never lies

his arrows struck this heart

a heart that wants you.

Forged from cupid's arrow

came a heart so pure,

purer than before

you picked me up

from the shards that broke

and made me whole once more.

Forged from cupid's arrow

came a melody that never dies,

these words are true

you are what I desire

a heartbeat that never fades

my evergreen beauty 

ours is a love

forged in cupid's flame.

How the tides have turned

Oh how the tides turn;

once before there was peace

yet now darkness comes

our very existence

is but a shadow.

Oh how the tides turn;

like Jonah inside the fish,

we pray for freedom

yet if we are

would we be grateful?.

Oh how the tides turn;

we were once brave,

but now our courage fades

like the smoke it is

it falls never to rise again.

Oh how the tides have turned;

our words meant for blessing,

have now turned toxic

just like acid

we melt through

but for how long?...

Beneath the clouds

Beneath the clouds

darkness spreads like fire,

our once lightened path

has lost its light

the same light we could see.

Beneath the clouds

our thoughts linger,

like they never did

our thoughts mattered once

but they're now lost to us.

Beneath the clouds

my tears drown me,

my smile was once real

but tears overtook me

I now wish to be free.

Beneath the clouds

I once had a dream,

now it's blank

it disappears into nothing

an emptiness worse than death.

Beneath the clouds

I saw a glimpse of light,

yes it was bright

but it fades nonetheless.

Above the surface

 Above the surface

our masks are all we see,

the same ones

that hide what's true

we cannot outrun them.

Above the surface

the scars that sleep

awaken to a new dawn,

my thoughts resurface

like the early morning dew.

Above the surface

our true nature slumbers,

the only thing we see

are mirror images

images of our true selves.

Above the surface

our tears are superficial,

only the soul knows

what pain exists within

these words are all there is.

Above the surface

our words never matter,

they once did

but it never shows

above the surface.

STEPPE

 The sun bids farewell by taking its golden color,

Touching your temples like a busse in autumn.

Not by passing innocent people like that,

It leaves a warm smile to every living thing,

But cold, people are “sometimes” deceived.

Because human scent

It is in front of the sun’s autumn hello.

H.A.
