From the Chaser’s Diary III

I want to learn how you feel;
Please teach me.
A penny for your thought;
Please indulge me.

When it hurts the most,
I long for you,
To take solace in your bosom;
Please embrace me.

But you said, ‘let me be!’
‘How can I?’ My wonderment.
Now, I wish I could.
I wish I had.

But they are just what they are;
Wishes!
They are not horses,
And that hurts.

I wish they were mere candies,
That I could buy mine right on my lane.
And then gladly present them all to you.

I’d buy a happy everafter with a queen,
A promising future with an angel,
A great tomorrow spent with you,
If I could.

When all I have is a Naira,
I’ll spend it all on you.
And I’ll know no pang in my eternal bliss.

A Naira or a million, regardless,
You’ve got me.
All discretion are bubbles in my reverie,
And to the wind I throw them.

For the pleasure of having you by my side tomorrow,
I’ll risk it all.

Oya, make una come review my work, abeg.

I think its really nice, even though i did not understand one or two lines. I don't know much about poetry, so ill just wait for the pros to comment.

Really nice. But timing and verse inconsistent.

I am not into this genre of writing so I can't criticise much. But to my layman's eyes it is very cool.

Ode to silence; please read and leave a comment. https://labimide./2015/05/09/ode-to-silence/

Sorry Õoooº°˚ ˚°º I JƱڪτ̲̅ dey see this one naw. Hope say I no wake come late.

@labimide, I'm just seeing this mention but if the dates are anything to go by, then this mention is over month, so I don't knw why I'm just getting it now, nd its not like I've been absent on NL.

The poem is nice, maybe you should submit it to society for young authors in Nigeria for review, if they like it, they would publish it for you.

Its cool, keep it up

thanks favourume, Dapo777 and Chanchit. Chanchit, I'll def follow your advice. Who knows, it might turn out big. lol
