@Nex,
I've been following your contributions over the years on these thread
You and Ruudie, u guys have what it takes
but if you keep waiting to carry everybody along on this, am afraid you wouldn't go far
so i think the best thing is to move on with whoever you feel is serious
see what you can do, and then when u have somethin' standin'
you'd be amazed at the Number of people who would like to be down with you
Don't keep waiting for Seun, the Guy's Abacha, In this Site, a Dictator if you get the drift

me am a lil bit of a Rhymer, I guess, I could do somethin' like all out Poem
so take my advice and see where that gets you.

DON'T GIVE UP, you'd be surprised.

Long before, I knew I had a heart,
I’ve felt,
Times yonder before I knew what art was,
I knew you were beautiful.

We were just kids, probably 8 or 9
You were in a class of your own,
Special, adorable and delicate,
Yes you looked so fragile and vulnerable.
I remember once, when I saw you sad,
How bad I felt, I knew nothing,
But I knew somehow, I was touched, affected.

I can remember the boys playing
And how I opted to play with you girls
‘Cos then I wanted to just stay beside you,
To perceive you, that sweet scent of you,
To see you smile, and
To see you throw back your head and laugh,
Oh what joyous rings to my ears they were.
I remember how I prayed when were reshuffled in class
How I wanted to be placed beside you,
To sit beside you,
But that teacher had to put me elsewhere.

Moments after moments, I’ve escaped
To that enclave within me,
My own world,
My own very garden of Eden,
Everything was I wished it, and God just smiled his approval,
Where you were my Eve and I was your Adam.

I can’t say I remember the very first day we first met
We were just kids; so naïve
Suddenly we were there,
Whatever I felt for you, was my secret,
My most treasured possessions.
I couldn’t share them with you,
Not because I didn’t want to,
But because I never knew how those things were done then,
I was shy,
So I had to make do with your smiles, laughter and my dreams.


And now after 10 years, since I saw you last,
I still feel the same way.
And then luck brought you my way again.
God! You were everything I imagined you’ll be, even better,
Yes, there you were, standing tall,
Still as pretty as you were years back.
There’s a difference, a little bit difference,
It’s maturity, yes! You’re a woman now.
I drank in your sight, as you walked towards me
You’ve got gait and what a step,
I ran my eyes over you, I always knew, you’d be a knockout,
The curves and contours of your body, undulating,
The right way, in the right places and in right proportions.

You came up to me, and then you smiled,
You’ve still got that smile, that would always melt me,
It melted me right away.
Then you called my name, God! You still have that same melodious voice,
I was mesmerized, you remembered me,
My name became Happylicious

We chatted about and away,
How we never believed seeing each other again,
Who would have believed we thought along the same lines,
I was not alone.
The way we talked and how easy and cool we felt with each other,
From that day, I knew we were meant to be something together.

As you read this, dear,
Anywhere you are, remember me,
And in whatever you do, I Love You.

There it is I said it,
All these years I never thought I was going to hear me say that
And it never matters whether you love me back,
Cos without your consent I cared,
And without reasons, I loved you.
