Poetry Room by Emmiasky(m): 3:15pm On Jul 30, 2018 |
How about a room where all we do is write poems and promote each other's works? We've seen enough of entertainment garbage on nairaland, please.

DILEMMA Oh! I am in a state a state of confusion Where i don't know which way to go a state of dilemma Oh! I am in a state a state where i don't know what is right from wrong Where i see two road; a narrow with few and a wide with many a state of dilemma Oh! I am in a state a state where i start to question my loyalty Where it's either to stay put or move on a state of dilemma Oh! I am in a state a state where i get complains from both sides; both good and bad where i get tempted by the vanits of life a state of dilemma Oh! I am in a state a state where the joy of eternity seems too far ahead Where i get addicted to the phrase "LIVE FOR NOW" a state of dilemma Oh! I am in a state a state i can only be saved from by HIM Where only THE POTTER can help a state of assurance For, I am now in another stage of the state a stage of addiction to the narrow Where i can envisage now that my future now and later is shining bright A state of SMARTNESS

WHILE I STARE While I stare at the deep of the earth I tear from my eyes Is this what He made it to be? Were we all meant to live like this? Guns became our toys Breaking hearts became a thing of joy Corruption became a hobby and we've turned immorality into our Tommy Now that I choose not to be part they tag me, a daft that I am dumb for not wanting to be part of the smart ones While I stare at the repulsiveness instigated and done by the of the sons of men Not even afraid anymore, we sleep and dine with them and are forced to be close friends Now, I am void of tears What is the need to weep over what is dead? I will try my best to revive them Not cry over what will not be solved with tears. I will save the few I can So they also can stare from afar and thank Him for our lives; the lives of positive influencers. -Emmiasky Ojex
