If i be JULIET
by
nicholas ayoola oladehin

Sing me a song
A pill for sleep
A lullaby in disguise.
Bid me come to thy side
Where I can lay
In thy wide open arms
Craving for the
Warmth of thy embrace.
Feed me with words
As sweet as honey
Like never before known
To calm my troubled mind.
Lead me to your lair
A resemblance of Eden
Full of abundance
With a table laid for two.
Treat me like a queen
A royalty without blue blood
The queen of my own pack.
Kiss my gentle lips
Sending me on a journey
Far beyond dreamland
To a place of absolute peace.
Say the words I do
As we as two become one

Hunger
by
nicholas ayoola oladehin

Hunger visited me at 2am
Drilling through my inner bits
Hunger took me on a long ride
Journeying through the long cold night
Hunger fed me a bitter pill
That made me groan and whine
Hunger made a slave out of me
Whipping at will and claiming lord
Hunger stole my joy
And brought tears to my eyes
Hunger made me a beggar
Yearning for food from anywhere
Hunger stole my birthright
And made me lose my mind
Hunger made the day seem short

With an ever unending night

Happy Birthday Mum
by
nicholas ayoola oladehin

my first love
right from the very start
cradled me from boy to man
million of miles separate us
still our love waxes strong
am glad you have made
another day
another year
another month
Happy Birthday dear Mum.
