Lost Paradise

You broke me by tearing me apart
You brought me to my feet by breaking me down
'If you don't stand for something,
You will fall for anything,' was all you could say
But I fell for something so I stood for anything
I stood for anything because I fell for something
And you did not only mean something but
everything
Where anything became my everything
And something meant nothing to me
Because I was left alone with nothing to hold me
down
I was not a successful man, I will admit
Otherwise, there would be something
Holding me down because I stood for you
But you broke me lose and set the demon free
I am a free man now and it hurts
My rib is lost; I am empty
My better half is gone; I am single
I used to be a four legged creature under my
blanket
But I am now deformed and its all because of
you
It has been like forever since you've been gone.
You made my road so foggy in the middle of this
rocky world
With my thoughts as a heavy load
Which I carry on my back like a hunchback
Where did our fragile hearts go?
Did they travel and never came back?
Or perhaps as you always say
'They have flew to the forgotten paradise'

MYSTIC FALLS

Love brought me here
And love drove me out of here
I am different from you
I am human,I am a monster
My soul yearns for you, I am soulless
My heart beats for you,I am heartless
I died years ago,I am immortal
Death sees me as an arch but I will die for you
This is not right
It can't be possible, but it is happening
Stay away from me,I am glued to you
Flee from me,you are a part of me
I am a predator, you are my prey
Hate me,you are in love with me
I can't love you but I love you
I am not like you
I am a soulless monster
I am a killing machine
I suck blood out of humans
I am a beast,don't admire me
I kill to survive
I know no body
I have trained my soul
But I don't know when I can
Explode again
I am the ripper,I will fix you up
This love is mystic
Beautiful like a water falls
And it is in mystic falls
I found such love
Love brought me to mystic falls
Same love drove me out of mystic falls
I can't help it
Watching the one I love
Love my brother

A Home Not Mine

The world is our home
But we don't own it
We came with nothing
So we shall go
Why then
Single handedly
Carry the world
On your shoulder
The world is for us
It is not ours
None of us own it
But it is ours
Why look down on me?
Because of your power
This power Would not even last
For ever
But had it not been
For my power
Would you have turned
Your back on me
Or on us?
The very ones
Who gave you power
This power won't
Make you live forever
Neither will it last forever
The same way
You and I came?
The same way
You and I shall go
We came from dust
Into dust shall we go
Don't rob Peter
To pay Paul
Its nature!
You can never cheat on
You are highly regarded
You are highly respected
You are way above me
But what puts us
On the same scale
Is mother nature
Hate me!
Imprison me!
Torture me!
That won't change the fact that
Power is nothing
If it is not used Efficiently
Like sand
Through the fingers Misunderstand me
For i understand you
Because I stay under you
But when we finally depart
From the world?
You will know
We were always
On the same level
That is what life is about
We came
Surely we shall go
Life is a journey
Not a destination
There are no mistakes
Its chances taken
Through the pain,
Through the rain
Life must finally reach
Its destination
There we leave the world
Behind
And head towards
Our final destination

Velvet Skin

You have cheated on me
You enjoyed her in bed didn't you?
She was better than me wasn't she?
Don't just stare at me,answer me!
You made love to her
So says your son,what do you say?


I say let's not wash our dirty clothes outside
I can't deny these alligations
Trust dies because bad pay poisons him
I did enjoyed her but its you I love
Blame me not,its my fault
I did right but I accept my mistake
I was a mendicant in her land
I was a victim of her Cecity
She was of royalty
And I had no objections to her demands


Oh come on!
You are fearless and brave
You slay thousands with
A sling of your sword
I am not convinced
But I understand you
The power of a woman
The strength of a woman
Lies in her mouth
Her tongue sweet as sugar
Deceitful as Lucifar,beautiful like a serpent
You fell victim to her
Just like you were to me
On our first encounter
So I forgive you


Can I hold you now?
Can I touch?
I miss your soft velvet skin
Your sweet tenderness
And all your perfect imperfections
Being in the battle field for uncountable days
And now it feels like harmony
Your presence is like heaven to me
I am with you now
And forever more

UNDERCOVER

She exist in a different world
I look at her face and I smile always
Looking back at me, she does same
Motionless but she wears a smile
On her bright beautiful face
Making the sun shy away
With her mouth shut,she talks
Speechless but I hear her voice
Tickling my ears, causing tears to flow from my
eyes
My mind is free, but she is always on my mind
Right in front of me but I miss her presence

I see her vividly but its her I seek for
I kiss her on the lips every morning when I wake
And when I am about to sleep at night
But I wonder how her lips will feel like
A phantom she is in my fantasy world
But I know she exists
Not among the soulless and lifeless
But a part of the living census,she is
She makes my world complete
But I need her in my life to make my world
complete
If I should take a trip to out of space,she will be
the one I will see
With the key to heavens gate
She will be right there with an open arm
Like a smile waiting for me
At the gates of everlasting flames
Burning eternally mortal souls without any ashes

I know it is wrong to love her
It is just not right but that's how it feels
Daughter of Hades,Full of deceit and lies
But I believe her every word
You don't won't to see the real me she always
says
I am a monster I tell you
I walk on earth undercover
I am a devil in disguise
That was not how I was
But I have been stripped of my tenderness and
loving heart
And now I nakedly expose my other side
The part that knows no mercy nor compassion
Like a bird my wings is broken
So I can fly no more
And now I am stacked on earth
With no shoulder to lean on
Don't judge me,I am on a judgement quest
I pass judgement unto those who broke me down
It wasn't my intention my intentions were clean
So you can't love me I will drag you to Paradise
I am heartless but I can't watch you burn in
eternal flames

I could mend her broken wing
So she can fly again
But I don't want to lose everything
That I have gained, making me a selfish man
Without her my heart will beat no more
She looks like a girl but she is a flame
Her eyes blazing red like an erupted volcano
Medusa she is,half human half serpent
One stern look from her sends
Ones soul out of their bodies
I know who she is,
She is a fallen Angel
With the tongue of the serpent Himself
But I love her and I never want to let go
Drag me with you,I am willing
To spend life eternally with you
My beautiful monster
Beautiful like the ocean blue, scary like the
raging storm
Looking at her with complete Aphony
I can describe her like i am suffering from
amnesia

Above all we are in love
And I want to lead her to the altar
After all I am an Adonis
And we make a perfect match
I am her heels of Achilles,she is powerful beyond
measures
Together we can live an Arcadian life
But It is like I have an axe to grind
She is as ageless as the sun and I am aging
Ancient as the stars,and I am current
She is awful as silent and pitch as a starless
night
But she is blameless as snow
And we are deep as hell in love
This is a dangerous love affair
The story never told

CHOICES

I sat quietly as thoughts run speedily through my
mind like a river. Flooding its banks and taking
absolute control over everything around its
surrounding. What I was really thinking about,I
did not know. I was sinking in my own
thoughts,or probably I was drowning in my own
pool of tears. Like Alice, I was in wonder land
Maybe I should just end the story tragically.
Suddenly like a movie, my mind carried me back
to three years ago when we met. Sitting under
that old deserted tree that distinguishes itself
from the few trees at the foot ball field. It was a
cold and foggy morning and one could feel the
harshness of the harmattan all around town.
Despite the harsh chillness of the weather,the
scorching sun couldn't afford to miss its
prescence, creating a mixed feeling for everyone
like we were victims of malaria fever. Feeling
warm and cold at the same time can be a very
uneasy situation to cope with, but not for the
inhabitants of the mountainous areas. They are
used to the weather condition especially at this
festive moments. Rumours had made it well
known to me that mystical creatures with
supernatural powers dwelt among humans in
these parts of the world. Valley view, Twin
mountain and the likes are vicinities victimised
of these mystical creatures according to the
mutual friend of everyone "Rumour". Now talking
of where we met, Clara and I met on one of
these festive occasions. Walking boastfully
around with stern curiosity, I spotted this quiet
extremely beautiful young lady probably a year or
two younger than me or maybe three,dark, short
and her eyes glittering like pieces of diamonds in
the Sun's rays. Like a butterfly to a flower,I was
attracted to her instantly. Looking a bit nervous
from the beginning guess she couldn't resist my
charm either. According to her she was feeling
uneasy and she was seeking for refuge under the
shades of the trees. Clara explained she was
new in town and so was i. The festival was the
only thing she came to witness while I had a
different agenda. "Adventure" it was. After a bit
taste of curiosity I couldn't miss to spice my day
up with a little bit of adventure. I was itching to
know more about this particular festival and also
to explore the town more. Having witnessed the
spectacular display from the crowd in their
various arts, which included gymnastics,acro
batics,fireworks which was one of my personal
favorites and many more,the sun was almost
completely out now and I had to go. I told Clara
it was nice meeting her and hope to meet her
again,we exchanged contacts but she insisted
she would have loved to go with me to see my
house but she had to wait for the sun to settle
down before she can leave. Was she waiting for
someone? She said no but the sun's rays burnt
her too much. Burning from sun rays is not
something new in Africa, it is something all
Africans suffer from and are probably quite
familiar with now except that may be you are
new in the system but according to her she has
been here for some years now. I decided to
leave her behind but on a second thought,I gave
her a ride in my brand new Mercedes. Inside the
car she told me strange stories of how she
became a demon.
"This was not who I am and this was not what i
was
I once had a life
I once loved and cared
I once had loved ones
I once had friends
I once had a family
But now I am alone
I scare the hell out of people, I am not scary
I once had choices I made
But now I am different
I am human,I am a monster
I am a vegetarian, I hate fruits and vegetables
I love them and they make me want to vomit
I am allergic to meat,flesh and blood is my
favorite dish
It wasn't my motive
I was forced to make that choice
After all it wasn't my choice
I was dying before my time,my time was up
And so I signed a pact with the devil
I made no deal,but we have a deal
The only way to survive was to feed
On human blood
I suck every drop of blood out of humans
I am human,I am immortal
I did it for every body, I was selfish
I hate what I am but i love my self
I can not be killed
I am immune to death
Nothing can kill me except that a stake in the
heart with a wooden object
Will send my soul to a peaceful rest eternally
I am strong and fast
I am fearless
I am way to black to burn from sun rays but that
is what I burn from
I can't last for an hour in the sun
I will turn to ashes
I am an abomination to nature
Don't judge me,tell me I don't deserve to live
Tell me I don't deserve to be loved
“I don't pretend to know what love is for
everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me;
love is knowing all about someone, and still
wanting to be with them more than any other
person, love is trusting them enough to tell them
everything about yourself, including the things
you might be ashamed of, love is feeling
comfortable and safe with someone, but still
getting weak knees when they walk into a room
and smile at you
Let the world despise you for who you are
I will still love you no matter what
I don't care who you are
What you did or what you have become
All that matters is I love you
Just let me in,I am at your hearts door
And let me love you until you learn to love
yourself
You were mine right from Adam
And in you I find my lost rib
In you I find my joy and happiness
I will stay with you forever
And I am not giving up on you
Never!!"
It was a long ride through town and I really did
have quite an adventure. Clara and I had lived
happily as lovers for about a year or two now
without any arguments,quarreling nor fights. With
my aid she no longer drained human blood she
depended on that of animals and everything was
fine, but why the sudden change now? She left
on the table a note that read "Please I don't
want to hurt you. I really do love you but for the
sake of that love I have to leave you. My burning
sensation for blood has aroused again more
intensely of late. And it has been tormenting me
,I don't know when I might explode and go wild.
Please do take care. When I am over with that
hunger,I will come back to you but when I don't
please be free to move on. Always remember
that I love you."
Yours ever.
Clara

Friends With The Bottle

Do you know why I drink?
I drink because the bottle is my only friend
It understands and comforts me
It gives me hope and invites me to a world of my
own
Apart from the bottle,every other person thinks
I am useless,worthless and unimportant
Nobody recognizes me at gatherings
They think I talk nothing sensible
Just because I don't see the impossible
I speak thrash, listen to my words of wisdom
Whatever that comes out of my mouth is
nonsense
But it makes complete sense
Don't undermine because I don't think the way
you do
I don't see things the way you do
Doesn't mean I am blind
You are blind to the fact
And to the truth, you are deaf and dumb
But I suffer less from such casualties
I am not visually impaired neither am I insane
I am the true definition of freedom
I do what I want when I want
I say what I want how I want
Never think I have no secrets, I have secrets but
they are open
I see what you cannot see using binoculars
My eyes are microscopic
I see beyond the invisible
Thanks to my trusted friend
The only friend I have in this world
The bottles, not empty bottles
Empty bottles are useless,unless they are filled
with the magical potion
The bottle is my friend
And I am friends with the bottle
