Ojeikpo Elijah Poems

Tell me because I am from North
Tell me because I am from South
Either East or West
We are one
...

My Love, my one and only
Love me with love, pure and true
With every beating of your heart
Let it pour out in all you do
...

The world is too busy, never at rest
Always moving in a frenzied pace
A constant race, a never-ending test
Leaving behind a trail of scattered grace
...

My love, thou art a question in my mind
Doth thou truly hold me in thy heart?
Or is it just a fleeting, passing kind
That will leave me shattered, torn apart?
...

Underneath the windswept skies
Never-ending, a love that never dies
Forever constant, like the sun and moon
A bond that cannot be broken, not even by the fiery fire
...

Let me love you with every beat
Of my heart, so wild and free
Let me love you like no tomorrow
For in this moment, you are my destiny
...

Oh love, sweet love, please don't say no to me,
For I am lost without your tender touch,
My heart has found rest,
Your absence leaves my heart in agony,
...

All powers belong to God, so pure and true,
The mighty ruler of the universe,
Creator of all things, both old and new,
His grace and love for us can never reverse.
...

The angels sing in voices pure and bright,
Their melodies divine and ever true,
They fill the air with love and pure delight,
And lift our souls to heights we never knew.
...

Finding harmony in this chaotic world
Overcoming differences that can divide
Letting go of anger, grudges unfurled
Love and forgiveness, let them abide
...
