TELL ME

TITLE : TELL ME 
BY : AJAO IBRAHIM BELLO 

This atmosphere made me a tan 
When will I be a free man? 
Tell me.

My life has been filled with commotions 
When will I be free from these emotions? 
Tell me. 

Always want to be above the sky 
When will I be untied from this tie?
Tell me. 

That tie, it never unties me 
When will I be free like a sea? 
Tell me. 

My heart has always been alone 
When will she start calling my phone? 
Tell me. 

Love has always been a procrastination 
When will I be with her on a vacation? 
Tell me. 

I always have a lucid dream 
When will she become a reality, not film? 
Tell me. 

I'm very sure this is not insanity 
When will love cease to be a vanity? 
Tell me. 

I want her to be my hope.
When will I have the scope? 
Tell me. 

When will I get an answer to these questions? 
Because my heart is full of tensions 
I want you to come fast 
Among peers, I don't want to be last.

A REVIEW ON MYSELF

TITLE : A REVIEW ON MYSELF  I wasn't able to study law  Which allows me not to judge my flaw (s)  I accepted it as what life has drawn  I'm moving in a pace so as not to step on a claw. One faithful day, I stare at myself  Through the mirror, then I asked the mirror  What are you capable of doing for yourself?  Then I said nothing, maybe it's an error.  This is why I'm making a review  A guy like me has always crave for a perfect love  If not everyone knows, but few  Knows it's a great pathology I'm unable to solve.  They will say to me, Ibbwrites  With the way you write in great plights  You ought to have one, if not perfect  A lass that is not far off, and will never defect.  Thank God for making me who I'm  I'm not like a falling water in the dam  I'm growing everyday, can't you see my farm?  I'm confident always, and feel so calm.  I'm always afraid to wo...

MY SOLACE

TITLE : MY SOLACE  Happy Birthday to my solace  My makeup when I have a dull face  My sugar in the time of sour taste  Obviously we're from a different caste.  It will be so cruel  If I can't pen something for you here Because the day we met there  We became intimate with no fear.  Before today, you're just a friend  But now, you're a sister to the end I'll be your lawyer, if you have a case to defend Today is yours, and that's the new trend. With your stature, you're my infant  Trust you as my confidant  Sometimes I accept to be a fool When you tease me on who's more beautiful. She's my perfect place of comfort Consoling me in the time of distress thought  My cute girlfriend, adorable and short  Don't mind me, you're still my fort.  You've showed me love in many ways  Even when I change and sways How can I appreciate those days You cared for me in many ways.  My baby girl,...

RAVEN

The obstacles are unfeigned Me thinking of my present life… Now seems like a fictitious poem The scriptures could not avow me But destiny keeps me in the pace I became the sprinter The eclipse of the sun in the day Could not make thou blind Autumns burned me And my premature white hairs Like when deciduous trees lose their leaves I was pounded on the rhythm of… A yamless mortar with a pestle High and low. High and Low Birds flew to the sky I don’t know what they do If they spy or they pry But I know they could help me cry Cry out my raven Oh you lustrous black birds I freed you from genus corvus I’ve rolled a while sheet of English alphabets Fly in a black jet of sparrow feathers To my Papa and Mama Tell them I’ve learnt the alphabets of life Tell them I’ve been able to transcribe… Transcribe their antecedent of unknown words Tell them their echoes has inspired their child Tell them I’m bringing home the baton o...
