A LIL' She talks a lil' cos she's a lil' self-conscious belittled lil' by her friends they call her obnoxious and noxious are the fumes that she inhales a lil' to keep from feeling lil', she started to smoke a lil' her present mien might mean she hates to be called a drug fiend she hates to be seen in a scene in which she seems to be sinning so she goes backdoors and does a lil' wants more, she buys a lil' more and then gets high a lil' more but lil' does she know that I know she's brittle she fiddles with a needle and gets ill in the middle of a drug induced fantasy, her own inscenced family drops her in a hospital until she gets well a lil' because she tends to be rough she pretends she's tough but of course a puff what was all she needed but now thats not enough this stuff is no good she broods in a bad mood dudes start to stay away because she's looking so damn crude but she cant stop cos shes stuck in the habit Dammit! she cant even understand why she started it peer pressure or pleasure now her tears cannot be measured a lotta pain a lil' gain its a shame but sometimes just a lil' can hurt a lot |

@Nillla I was. it was fun wasn't it Cheesy Yes it was fun, see I told you we talked before. You don't remember me playing devil's advocate? I was telling the Igbo that if they kept posing as being above other Nigerians, they would continue to ask for trouble from their fellow Nigerians. I was the one who stayed on Babiosis's case. |
Re: Poetry Contest by nilla(f): 7:42am On Nov 18, 2006 |
Of course i remember you. Yeah that was really fun. |

An Epic Kiss An Epic Kiss Helpless in your rhapsody The sweet discovery found Under your body Lost in your abyss Lost in your arms, Your legs wrapped around thee There is no place I would rather be. Dripping in Passionate Sweat stunning is your silhouette. osculating, caressing Our love confessing. 'Neath the Moon The Stars Alone in Nature, It is Ours. To see your glow It does show Your happiness As you lay in mine arms. You set off my sexual alarms. Taken Higher , Thy Body Sexually set on Fire My heart flaming and aroused As you present yourself with sexual invitation. Your sweet flavour, I savour Smell of Strawberries, Chocolate Inside your deep brown brazilian body Throbbing, Pulsating Rhythmical In Love , You Have thee with your Epic Kiss , Your Epic Kiss Hey guys,this poem is not mine,its my elder's brother own.hope u guys like it. |

THE TREE AND I I started from a little seed, Brought about by nature’s greed. Now I sit, watch the world go by, But which sad figure am I? I stand alone among many others, I am lonely though I have brothers. I could grow and reach the sky, But which sad figure am I? I have branches each containing, Bits of me which I’m detaining. Don’t ask me, I don’t know why, But which sad figure am I? Now I’m fallen, broken and dead, Too many thoughts inside my head. Emotions escape me so I cannot cry, But which sad figure am I? I cannot mix an cannot see, The big, wide world in front of me. I’m here rooted to where I lie, But which sad figure am I? I see no future, no way through, There is little I can do. I cannot move, don’t want to try, But which sad figure am I? My light and warmth will not go on, There’ll come a time when they have gone. Won’t live forever, soon I’ll die, But which sad figure was I? SAMSON. |

Goodbye little girl there is a time to meet a time to part a time to say goodbye a time to realise that some face we see today we'll see again no more a time to know that all the fun the dreams and tears and the pains we shared will soon be past memories fading away with time as we take a giant leap into the future knowing full well that the hearts we shared the people we cherished and the friendships we built may never be ours to hold again we meet to part we part to meet though time may keep us apart and though we may never meet again the memories of all the good things and thoughts we shared will remain engraved on the table of our hearts where they'll never fade away, |
