Years passed and I always knew you,
Always loved you and saw your face around,
Decades went by and I neglected your importance,
As time flew by our bond grew unknowingly stronger
Months passed and I now seek after you.
No longer where I wanted you to be.
You were not in the house I left you.
I'm left remolding pieces of you in part of me.
I'll never forget.

Moments passed and by now it's thought by they that I might have forgotten
Time's gone by but I still remember your worth
I clearly remember your hand, its bite and its blanket
I still remember the way you talk,
I still remember the way you walk, the way you eat
I remember your fiery ambition
I close my eyes and the memories soar in…
I close my eyes and see your eyes, warmth, and passion
I close my eyes and I see you walk - those lean legs, walking faster than a squirrel could run
I drift away and I see you
I dream my eyelids open and you're nowhere to be seen
Months go by and I know that I still love you,
Today even more than I did yesterday
I still love those attributes I loved in you
I love you, and I love what you you used to be
I love you, and I still love the thoughts of you,
I love you, and I still love who you were
I love you because I am forever a slice of you
I love you because you love me
I will never forget when and how you walked away
Thank God for you, for your love, forever embedded inside my soul.
I await your return

Bob Dylan
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
Yes, 'n' how many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
And pretend that he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
Yes, 'n' how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
I dedicate to those who labor through needless anguish

Friendship has unexpectedly been progressing great for me these days. I have had several opportunites to bond deeper with several people who are suddenly very important to me. They should know who they are. I have learned some interesting aspects of the aforementioned people's lives. One thing I learned is, she is usually very resistant to openness for fear of being hurt. This did not come as a shock to me, I can attest to the betrayals we encounter in life. I was surprised especially when person called me at 11:58 P.M. last night, out of the blue, and wanted to talk! I must admit, I was delighted that she called because I love passing time with her any chance I get. I admire her strength, her character.
The ability to overcome resentment against others and hide feelings of hurt is not posessed by many. Being hurt by those you truly care about leaves a pit in your heart that only love can reinstate. I feel you can never have too many chances, or opportunities, to communicate with people you've grown to care about; they're able to overcome you with love that no hurt can outlast.

I will not fear
Fear is the mindkiller,
Fear is the little death
That brings total Oblivion
I will permit my fear to pass
Over me and through me
And where it has gone
I will turn the inner eye
Nothing will be there
Only I will remain.
Herbert, Frank

Can I pitch my story to you all
Give my glory to God
I remember being small man
Out in the neighborhoods
Kickin dust with the boys out in the hollow woods
Born in Nigeria
Raised in Nigeria
I will forever remain faithful Nigeria
I thank you Nigeria
Thank you Papa
Thank you Mama
I pray I discover what no other man has

Yes, I've concluded that it's not easy being me. Some things in life aren't worth the pursuit. Some people in life aren't worth the pursuit. One must sometimes learn to let go of the past, some people from our past, and forget the scorns they may have brought.
Extreme feelings of hostility and anxiety have hijacked my thoughts the past few days. I've been feeling unusual, acute, and fagged out for reasons unknown to the naked eye. Several buddies have cautioned me to cease the perilous tales I narrate to them, they urge me to shy away from subjects that will leave me feeling negative, but I find it funny that they would say that. Why? you ask, because I'm afraid they're the very ones that have me feeling uncooperative and drawn back.
Believe me, I try very hard to suppress the unpleasant dolesome urges I've been getting, but I have a feeling it's karma. You see, karma is beyond my control but I am most certain karma is not fate. A man acts with the freedom he's granted by the almighty, the free will he needs to shape his own destiny/bosom. You might not have known it before now that you reap what you sow. If you sow goodness, you will reap goodness; if you sow evil, you will reap evil.
I advise you to live your life each day knowing you tried to be the best you can. Stop living scared, in fear, and afraid. Don't live a life filled with paranoia, shame, or misery; live your life as if it is real, because it IS real. A philosopher by the name of Diogenes Laertius once said "Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death has not come, and when death has come, we are not." - he's right, life is there to be lived.
Let me leave you today with this infamous quote by Abraham Lincoln: "And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years."
