[center]’farCLOSURE’’ How further will a man's heart be? 21 days and the sun still won’t set for my return Each night loneliness lay by me like the virus Solitude Broken - closure is far. And tonight…this night the sea is raging I listen. Wait for your sweet whisper in every splash But only creases from crisscross by whitehorses <sighs> I hope for that break in a travelling bottle love-strung message to fight this abandon I know I'll see your face again those cheeky bones that inspire my smile far away here, aboard the West Polaris.

@Tgirl4real my fondness for you constantly Deepens cos each time I think of you my heart starts to Weaken this fondness seems to increase with every Breath that it tests the limit my imagination can Stretch you make everything else appear Hollow cos wherever you are loveliness is to Follow You shine so bright that you cast your own Shadow A beauty that others would like to Borrow But try as they might, your beauty they will never Match cos someone like you they could never Catch. 1 Like |

I no think for one day say i go be the one wey go tell you say,i wan marry you. Na almost crime to beg man to carry you go show him mama for my place. But since wey i meet you,na that day i know say i go wan spend the rest of my life with you. Oh my chocomilo,the way you dey do me,i no fit explain but i just know say you dey make my heart do jigigijibombom,if you waka pass,my mind go somersault come sound like thunder wey ready to strike person. If no be you e no fit be you,so just take my hand make i show you wetin i mean,no ever leave me na beg i dey beg because if you leave me na die be that. I no say you no get money now but one day e go better,i dey tell you this because money no fit stop our love even though onyinbo say "no romance without finance",come my sugarbanana make we show the world wetin love mean. Dedicated to MBD and Chuky. |

First Time writing a Poem, here it goes. Do not treat my Poem with Disdain/ I am merely attracted to your Name/ Please don't take this the wrong way/ It's the most fascinating name on the list i could find/ Creative and witty, it's kind of sublime/ I hope such an attraction is not a bad Sign/ For me to spend good minutes of my Time/ Twisting Words just to make them rhyme/ I think i will stop here for the Night/ I have things to do/ Unlike some People on this Site/ 1 Like |

chucky234: For: FreecocoaI see just how much you love me darling and it gladdens my heart. I often thought of love as a mirage Something that can never be found or felt But you came into my life and showed me that its real,that its the best thing ever. Being with you gave my life a meaning. This is just to let you that I'm never letting go So fasten your seatbelt cos you are going on a journey of eternal bliss with me,close your eyes and let's fly away into the night on an endless journey of love. Sweet dreams mi amor. |

Mac, even you mikuz, for ur sakes i hope you are single I know I am late but if its alright i'll be back with mine  |

Dear Anonymous She speaks with disarming grace every word reflective, of thought deep a woman beautiful in every sense one I wish to wake by with each rising sun every moment you're here makes me smile I press hard to utter things that rhyme hoping by chance you'd be mine I hope this finds you and finds you well. |

[center][/color][color=#770077]Dear Anonymous You, there's not much pain but to admire you from afar to feel virtual warmth in the companionship of another sometimes I dropby and hope in earnest you'd be here just to hear you talk sense and keep decorum in this rowdy house to chide adult-kids engaged in petty brawl out ...how I miss you now. I hope you cook good like you talk good maybe we could BBQ over some try-out roast take time out to discover our hearts along quiet paths just the two of us till the sun sets in our wake. [/center] |
