If I Ever Call At Midnight

 




So if I ever get drunk and call you in the middle of the night, please don't pick up... That's just my ego testing if at all I still care, and I don't. I just don't...

Atuech

 



Light ushers vigour

But hers life and happiness

Brings comfort and content

Comfort that keeps the heart at ease

 

  To her people the morning incandescence

   Voice that makes the birds jealous

   And to every morn a good day wave

   The village hope and swank at bay


Put out your candle 'Atuech' 

For someone with whom life you'll fetch

"still young grandma" ready not for a vow

My light still shine; nuptials just a shadow


    There she is now; lonely shank of grandma

    Only companion her soul, decennial now

    Raddled;confirmation of belle long gone

    No gent to her sight; no more gown


 Somebody call Atuech the princess

Beauty of all sundry

 But pride of inner soul; killer of destiny

 carried off all she deserved


            Taught her the hard way...

Just Like You

 




...and when your time comes, don't go soft on anyone. Switch to full savage mode and tell them to stay strong like you did...

creativity

 



it's fun 

              ~enjoy it

like intelligence having that fun

               ~feel it

some term it as contagious

               ~pass it on 

others say it destroys 

                ~keep it as weapon

just like David's sling 

                ~it'll help defeat 'him' one day

and all will praise you

                 ~for the best you've become

Walking home on a Sunday, my face to the ground

All the memories of an untold tale, piercing through my heart

PTSD is wrestling my fortitude , haunting all the surveys

I'm not perfect (I know), but at least am strong

Why would he do that to me, thought he was devoted

Tainted my self esteem, it's level now the size of an ant

I'm not perfect (I know), but at least I know when to stop

why'd they do this to me...

why'd they bring me on my knees

Now I have no plea, for a reason simple enough to be avoided; pleasure that stings like a bee..

because they knew...

                                    they all knew....


@ amimoh


Tried so hard to fix it...

 



something went wrong and we tried so hard to fix it 

couldn't hold on so we blamed it on the distance 

I never knew a heart could break itself 

I hope you're happy 

but I miss you madly 

don't hold it against me 

cause am not even close to you...

Still charming

 



For all the good times back in our youth

For all those times I calledyou cute

Guess it's the price I pay now

Loving you (with no strength to stop)

        Sixty five years still seems like yesterday

        When for the first time you said yes

        And gave me a responsibility; your heart to  never let it bleed       

Forget the children, they're all grown now

Gave me the best of you, never been a clown

Made me so proud, my generation is now known

A blessing of a lifetime; I'll never drown 

          So give me that smile; let me see your last teeth 

          Walk like the queen you are; let's enjoy the little time we have

           Pay no attention to their critics; they'll make you sad

           Always do good; give our lineage the best; let's hope they remember us....


@ amimoh

Long life...

 




Heroes are made 

Character is shaped 

Yet examples are set

I know of one hero with character

I know of a bloodline who set the pace 

One to whom responsibility is a special case 

That's a hero I recognize among many.


There's this one father (a peculiar one)

A family man, his lineage always in line

One with all our problems in hand, he's an advisor to our efforts for a dime

My uncle is the Luanda Magere of our time

A hero a I recognize among many


A personality compared to a stream of pure water

One that is clear and desirable - that's Walter

One that I dream of gifting a desirable treasure

I only hope for good and long life for this soldier

I only pray for his triumph, never to falter

I have a hero I recognize among heroes, a fighter strong enough to keep all negativity below

  He's my hero 

 He'll always be...


@ amimoh 

I have a friend

 


Many say my pen paint emotions clear

Some say my writing always gets the message home 

Yet to others it's a way of getting to relax in their perfect form 

Today I write to please a soul that is of my replica

I spit emotions to share joy of a great day (which to my heart- is a massacre)

A friendship so defined, though it's only been a week now

I have a friend I can confide in, one I can publicly say I love

An ally I talk to openly, one to which my personality is straight - not a curve

I have a friend so synonymous to me, I only wish I meet the soul soon

A strong personality, always hoping to be one of the best  

I only hope my friend never sobs 

I only hope my friend stay strong against all odds

But incase something come up and open fresh the scars of an ugly past, I hope my friend

shares and together, a solution be found.

Because it's love and honesty that defines it all, only friendship that breathes can battle it all...

I have a real friend...


@ amimoh 

Like claws

 


Take a pillow and lie low

 Your face lightens my heart; that you know

 a lifetime gift; complete score 

 Though you've made a turn; feels like a claw

 But why'd you make the move ; my heart sore

 Gave you a piece but you threw it away 

 What we shared to you a flag; wind to sway

 Only pray that wherever you've settled; please stay

For if at all you break another heart; I'll call you  a slay 

 One who never cares ; but only laughs at other's tears ....

...we were like February 28th & 29th; close but yet very far. 

                                           

@ amimoh                 


Try

 


Try kindness 

     and you'll get the best appreciations 

Try honesty

    and you'll be everyone's preference

Just try giving with a less boastful hand

      and you'll never lack anything under the sun

Make an effort for a soft spot in your heart

     and you'll always be favoured by the Most High

Trust me, believe

     and your tries will never be in vain.

They should

 



The stars still make the pattern they did when we were together. 

They still shine brighter when I look up. 

Guess somebody should tell them we're only history now. 

They should know it's all gone

They should

@ amimoh

Pappy

 




I have a hero; his costume sweat from hard work

There's this hero; from whom I find my destiny and hope

A hero I long to be like; always quite but secretly competes my shadow (always there)

My pappy is a hero; a soldier I long to see smile daily 

My hero is still rosy than me; that one day we'll dine together and laugh at the old dark days -

 the days of struggles and self shaping

And when that day comes, I'll give my hero the one thing I shed tears for - the life of a king...

I know...









I know of some who believed 
I know of them who combined souls
I surely know of love that turned to a mould 
Feelings that turned to binding claws 
To bind and keep them together; such a mould
I also know of the crazy law;
that once it's gone, it will hurt much more...

It's a joke...

 





Morning knocks; I'll still settle for the daily play

 Mixed emotions; which one should I pick today

 They say the face tells it all; then let me paint a different one in stray 

What happened yesterday? ( ooh, my girlfriend made out with her 'bestie' friend) 

I guess the frowning one wins then; the face I only wish I could mend 

A life defined by emojis, one defined by the faces I put on...

           my love life's a joke

That face

 




There's a face I long to wear in pride

A face having no other opposite side

One that gives me a personality that's fine 

A definition of true good life 

That's the face I yearn for 


There's an attitude I dream to maintain in pride 

One classified as Godly

Making me feel holy 

The attitude I yearn for 


Trust me I'll live this life in pride 

Riches, completely zero cries

Having all the family can buy 

With total disregard of the count of penny

That's the life

It's the one look for....


The one I yearn for

I'm fine

 




Lies and deceit

Pretence, like a lost piece

Curse your dark side 

Curse your love of price 

Need not force this 

Need not fix this...


Ten unread texts that night, only wanted to know where you were 

Made two calls, response at 2am; claimed your phone was silent

I don't hate you, hate the lies you've made a norm 

Hate the lier you are...


A million proofs of your lies, you could still explain

Constant reassurance, it's like you were never done inflicting pain

I made strides to make it all work 

Ignored your dark side to make it all spark again

Instead you kept knocking the glass door with a stone in hand; just to break down and say there's nothing you would have done 

That's just it 

That's the lier you are...

Blame me instead

 



Blame me instead


 Trust me I wish I could reverse time

Put everything back to place, fix it all, even in a dime

Messed up, pushed away the dearest to me, you called it ‘soul crime’ 

You still hold me captive; part of your heart meant for enemies

And so in case you remember the dark days and cry it all out

In case you need someone to blame

Just blame me...


Lived in lies and deceit

Late night brakes of my car in the garage

You needed a father, Instead I made the steepest ladder in your life to climb

You needed a father, gave you an attitude for a mere approval of you I never mind

But I do now, daughter I mind

It’s okay though; in case it hits back hard enough and you shed tears 

Just blame me 


I know you heard it all

All the late night quarrels with your mum, I know my voice scared you off

I know you saw it all

All the blame games after few bottles of liquor, it was never true, no

I wish you could ’unhear’ it all, I only wish you could ‘unsee’ all of it

And in case you think she started any of that, no; don’t blame her

Blame me instead


Hope your stepdad is better than me

Hope he battles not bottles like me 

Heard your mum gave you his last name, guess he is much better than me

Give not the grandkids my last name, might turn out like me

They’ll ask who the other grandpa is, tell them he’s no more

Tell them liquor made the greatest enemy against him, regret 

Just tell them regrets killed him

Blames and regret finished him

Blame me

Just blame me...
