ADENUGA TITILAYO Poems

I know you
I know what you want
Suck deep, crawl up my body and head
Part my hair with your fingers
...

Deep down it echoes
Stringed to the wall of your heart
Bubbles up, shaking down
Loud not to be heard
...

Strong ties
Unbreakable bond
Sweet vows
In love and pains
...

If I said I love you more than the fresh smell of air
Would you smile?
If I said I love you more than my folks and grand
Would you take me for a jerk?
...

My kids call me momma
and yes i am their mama
i look after them
watch their backs
...

It stares back at me
looks me deep in the eye
in search for something real and true
something natural to my being
...

I walked down the path of loneliness
in search for a companion

Up the hill i met Jill
who broke my heart and pulled me down the hill
...

Things fall apart
Scattered round the earth
Like a broken vase
That holds the fairest of flowers
...

Pink rosy cheeks
white sparkling teeth
spread of laughter like a flowing garment
...

Dark clouds gathering
falling unto the earth
flying birds to their nest
running people to rest
...
