Osaya Evbuomwan Poems

Just because Fire is memorizing doesn't mean you should be foolish and touch it

Fire is beautiful, it's hot, it's enticing, it draws you in, it will deceive you
Fire is wild, at times it can't be contained, try and smolder it with a rug and watch it burn right through it
...

'Get Away' I said 'what do you want with me? '

This cruel vile creature yes you... you are fake
What do you want with me I have nothing left for you to take
...

I'm Just A Young Black Man living in New York City
Surrounded by friends, associates and of course family

So then why do I always feel alone, is it that the smiles I see outside my small bubble of a world
...

There are times we men are just that... Color Blind

At times we look over the white
picket fence when its actually beige
...

Sometimes I Wonder if you ever fathom the pure Love I have for you...

I Wonder if you'll ever see it for what it really is
and not what you 'want' it to Perfectly be...
...

"Suffocate"

I long to feel the warmth of your skin.
Your hand, reaching for mine.
...

I can't stop thinking about you
Wondering if you think of me, too
I can't stop thinking of your lips
Oh! How soft they are between mine
...

Brushing my hair from your touch
My emotions erupt
I realize that I'm struck
Like a bug by a truck
...

How do you tell the one that you love

You don't know if this is going to work
...

Don't you hate that feeling...the feeling of being hopeless......the feeling of all your dreams slipping away.....the feeling of not being able to chase em...The feeling of watching your life crumble before your very eyes

Don't you hate that feeling...the feeling of is he/she in love with me...the feeling of wondering and not know the answers...the feeling of your heart sinking and the site of a certain thing
...
