Ghosts of lovers past They live with me And haunt me Daily rearing their heads To mock my anguish I’m all alone There’s no one here Beside me But the ghosts Floating through my thoughts Lying beside me And when I reach out They drift into nothingness I would embrace them If they stayed I would join my soul with theirs As our lips touched These ghosts Of all the girls I have loved Not necessarily Those who have loved me. thetravelerpoems. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Rescue me From today From despair From this crushing loneliness From pain From misery Rescue me Come back And tell me How much you love me Tell me That forever We will be together If not At least return The heart I gave to you Return the love That I gave to you That I might with it love another I have wished to love another And found myself unable to Seeing that I gave it all to you Would you care to be Merciful to me And return to rescue me. thetravelerpoems. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Hello Nigeria Grinn Grinn GrinnGrin! The phone rang endlessly. I waited for the call to be picked anxiously The sleazy operator must be asleep I thought. Back and forth my thoughts ran Like a little boy who lost his way back from the farm I heard the busy voices of the ancients Discussing what could have led to the abandonment And all their toils deserted Our children no longer love each other an ancient said Our lands are now deserted another reiterated Our faces no longer radiate with smiles the third of them lamented. Smiles that used to be as radiant as that of the early morning sun Joys that used to flow graciously like the river Osun. The phone was picked Hallelujah! I shouted Alhamdulillah! I exclaimed I heard a voice from the other end As guttural as that of the egungun Who has disturbed my peaceful sleep? The voice roared Who dares disturb a giant warlord? Hello Nigeria, I sauntered Your days of sleep are overboard You have been robbed of your legacy Replaced by Democracy A disguised Autocracy A conspiracy to keep you off bay By the monsters who came aboard the ship Wake up from your slumber oh great one And be the captain of your own ship. 1 Like |

VAL FOR TODAY That each moment reflects Our mirror self Our true color in love Our attitude in caring Our giving in charity Let d day die for good The good things we did The good people we meet The good we pay for evil Our good without expectations Let the day reconcile With our own grieves With our families. With our love Finally let d day be For its val for today 1 Like |
