Darkness And I

The thick darkness calls at me, But what league do we have in common? The heightened atmosphere beckons to me, But my interest; moistured and forlorn. The singing toads and howling crickets, The berries and almonds speaking in tongues. The bewitching owl got me in her thicket, Now choked in the pleasantries of her throngs. Grotesque shape salutes the nooks and crannies. Now a scotting lizard later a stooping hunter. My fear levitated from venus to other axis, Before the ray of my lover glitters. More fear, dreads did darkness lent me. Till the longing lover defeated me.        17: 19: 08: 22: 28 Adeyemi Joshua

Death

Hey! , why deprived the juvenile of his breath without my permission? Why bang into the honeymoon and kicked out a noble in derision? You have no regards for souls and post in decisions. I swear if you dare approach me, i will wring off your neck in aggression. C.2017 Adeyemi Joshua

Betroth To Two

He will often say, 'Lend me thy trust i pray.' And if trust is lent him, Then will he switch from he to him. ************************* When the Bold* weigh his flaws, Summon will he him by a call. 'Say not thou you'll serve me? ' He screamed as he did his voice bill. ************************** Money  will he say to, 'Forever will thou be my love so.' And if trust is lent him, Then will he switch from he to him. ************************* 'Oh! , how long will thou wander? ' Howl'd the supreme with a thunder. 'Will thou be forever mine? ' Or to money will thou be kind? ************************** Choose now, thou ragamuffin. God or money; Pick a king. C.2017 Adeyemi Joshua

Caught In The Claws Of Doubt

Life is a tree that grows without focus, A pool that flows without source. Her fruits are dejecting and nourishing, Varying from 'Carbondioxide' through 'Oxygen'. Take life as a rigid rock, Like an egg it'll be mocked. Take her even as an egg, Then she'll prove that she's a furious peg. Life is whatever you think: A classical music in it's brink? She sits at the exit of death, Beckoning to passerbys jailed by threat. Life is the song of the soul, Mending broken heart and battered sole. Life is an episode bewitched with doubt; Afraid of leaving the exit for the south. 17: 07: 11: 12: 05 Adeyemi Joshua
