Tosin Adesokan Poems

The land and it's wishes 
They dwelled in riches 
They continued to dwell 
And was going well 
...

Roses are beautiful 
But you are more than rose 
You are wonderful 
Either you choose to sleep or pose 
...

Neither silver nor gold we have none 
But i believe we can change the world of err 
Our father's days had gone 
It's our time to change the evil air 
...

4.

It flies, flies and flies 
It goes up, up and up 
It cries, cries and cries 
And never beg for food cup 
...

Years ago, brother made a first class
today, I saw him rolling multiple weeds
because his birth place is a smouldering hell
where people pray not to see another day
...

We are all human
aren't we?
we are all human
until riches segregated us
...

I am a student and not a bandit
Mixing Grammar with Marxism in order to be a liberator
Mixing lectures in order to be fit
Paid parents, tell me the tales of the children persecutor
...

The last time I checked, she has gone
Her words then, weren't real
Her smiles then, were all fake
But I valued them because they built worlds
...

MOTHER
my life is full of happiness without an iota of joy
my world is full of sorrow without sadness
My life is like a flood running around, strolling with erosion
...

Life is like a country road
Sometimes rough
And sometimes tough
You need to move on even with the load
...

I am here and she is there

Two hearts bound together
...

The man in me
The one living inside me
Has been telling me to wake up
From my ugly decorated dreams
...

There are friends and there is a friend
Those that give and those that lend
A friend who helps in striving to borrow
What you will eat tomorrow
...

From the onset
I have known you are the one
That will fill the empty space of my heart
From the onset
...

As people grew older
Gifts inside them grow
But they never agree to show
Dreams are chasing one another
...

Die now or live,
Was the chance life gave to us
It's just a moment that separates the two options
One isn't better than other
...

I brought you peace but you gave me war
I baked your bread, you made me hungry
I followed your rules yet you broke my law
I respected your sober mood, you made me angry
...

I sense it, the love of Atalanta
That comes not easily
But through a competition
Like a war, I will fight for you
...

At dusk, I planned my plans
Before sleeping
I promise the world
Never to compromise
...

What about them?
Those who strive than the elephant
But eat like an insect
What can you say about those that
...

The Best Poem Of Tosin Adesokan

Act Of War

The land and it's wishes 
They dwelled in riches 
They continued to dwell 
And was going well 

They boasted to acquire more 
Without afraid of war 
They always curious about something 
Whereas there was nothing 

They continued on their way 
But there was a day 
A war broke out 
The land refused to work out 

The war continue from year to year 
With no hope of heir 
Dwindled in their wishes 
Shortened in their riches 

The life of land glutton 
It's always rotten 
They withdrew from the war 
They cease to have more 

They asked the muse 
In whom the were fused
The outcome of the war 
Muse said nothing more 

I volunteered to be a remedy 
But the land was not yet ready 
The land said I look dryer 
In my view, they look older.
