Danladi Tauhid Poems

For every person
There is someone so dear
You could give anything
For him/her to be with you
...

The light that shone for
the sake of life
Upon the land that was in darkness
many had wondered at the will to thrive
...

He struts on top of a mound
of opportunity
Feathered and carpeted desires
unfounded
...

Everybody has history
and even other things
other beings
Ain't nothing without history
...

2002
A great decision yet so uncertain
A year that changed so many things
Such was 2002 to me
...

Some people see love as
a sting of youth
Some will say a passing fancy
and that what succeeds is tolerance
...

Once at the university
And in my youth
There was this girl I admired
I was never able to tell her
...

Darkness
Heartless
Dumb
...
