Goodbye My Lover, My Friend

Sweet memories bring me sighs

So many tears from our many goodbyes

Hey!!!!!!!! Those days life was new

Your ginger laughter filled the room

I feel the grief of our childhood

I curl beneath myself and sob

A cherry rope swings between the tree

Of summer nights on the beach

When the wind moaned up the hill

And you’d take me in your arms

And hand me such a big kiss

The sweet hugs meant just for me

Now we’re parting, leaving these walls

Where our laughs and tears forms the beats

The glitter of our many dreams spill and hunt these walls

So caged they refuse to fly away

It’d be a felony if the memoirs swayed

I bubble in the corners of your head

Ray dots that never change with time

So many promises I keep on hold

And as I say my last goodbye

And looking at the smiling sky

I know one day that all this sorrow

Will peel off before those teary eyes

That day we shall mend the past

Because it has always been a patent

You belong to my heart

Enemy of Love

It seems just like yesterday not even gravity would take me off the earth
But when you took me into your arms, you changed it all

Scenes keep locks on the sound of love
I feed on riddles of words
Silence have something to say
Seeking through the shapes and forms of remedy
And clogging at this love tragedy
You crawl and swim in my mind, arranges and rearranges my own beliefs
I stare at my mirror
Its easier when you ride on fantasies
Its harder when voices, kisses, embraces, thoughts tears you apart
But its enough when love leaves you widely open and exposed

It was just yeaterday you took a king's seat in my heart

I'm searching through the scenes in my mind
Seeking through forms and shapes in the tragedies and remedies on my mind
I'm feeding on proverbs and quotes from love best known norms
And silence have something to say
Shadows starts to dance in my heart
Pooping champagnes, ballets and twists
It breaks my heart so bad
But there's a hidden story of candles that occured
These celebrations peeping a spark out of dark is not normal
Nights are jellied and lured direct from heaven above
But its yesteday when we started writing this love
What is romance?
Silence have something to say

You stood for love
I listened to my angry emotions that pounded in love styles
Loved the games disguised in bright meeky hues
Now am paying to the enemy of love

You fished my desires and swang who I am
You patrolled my needs so you could have your way, all your way
You kissed me hard leavening me with orange linen on my lips
Tinted shades flow endlessly up down my strings
Darkness glows as I lie next to you
And doubts creeps in my soul as you try to baby your mistakes
I go insane
Am standing in the mouth of pressure, balancing on the edges of trust
The take-a-ways, oh the millions mistakes,
I try to peel away from the chemistry of our love
But silence have something to say

Pain and anger dazzles at my face
You talking tall again, all higher power again
Cycles of steamy pain burns my soul
Its high time I killed the enemy

But suddenly you kiss the stars straight from heaven and blow them right to my heart again
I dream as I rub myself with life or death intuations
And love burn and rave at my slogans
This is a journey that never ends
The voices at my head returns you to me
You're the enemy I can't live without
Without you am a crazy disaster thats better with death
Cus the high insanity of this love is out of this place
And so I rip my heart and give it to you, its better you'll keep it away from your harm
And am not ready to let love die a not so a natural death
Cause you're my e enemy , you're my source
And all these mistakes, errors, betrays, open wounds please wrap them up
Put in this dark coffin and burry deep in the clay of your memories till they wear and wither out
Tarnish the enemy for a better us
And the idle pain will have nothing but to run
Babe love is a change agent, it clears pain and gives out warmth
So hold me tight as we get armed up against this enemy of love

Beautiful Mistake

Lets hike through broken lanes, till life make sense
Lets fence fear, give that insane pain a blockage
Till life make sense

Lets page our broken pieces of thoughts and hope
Let climb valleys and hills of sin
Till life make sense

Hold me tight, lets crash those ends that break us to ashes

Walk with me, parade the sour cloudy waves
Till life make sense

Lets throw stones to talks untill they sink
Lets dance till our sweat forms a sea
Till life make sense

Together we can drift, and swim through the sharks
Wrap you in my skin, hold till we start to float
We'll ride though the smoke
Untill life make sense

Lets float till we describe a dream
Freedom can only mean you and me

The world fires at you, roast you bad within
Paint you in black , till you drown in black wine
You dance and wine in pain, closes your heart, embracing the devils wheels within
You steam , role yourself as own enemy, then throw yourself in the bin
You watch as my heart scatter and shrink within
Say that am too good for sting
But I won't just let you fade, you're my beautiful mistake
I'l dive on your skin
Tilt pain, sun-kiss your soul, breath away drama and doubt
Till we fly in flashes

I 'll wear your heart, breaks locks, till love saves us

We'll run the light till we find the truth
I'll breath you, humour you till we find us

I'll stir chances on you , dance with hues
Till I seclude you completely from blues

Babe you're the force behind these traits
You track my mysteries and remind me what life is supposed to be
You're the pioneer of my dreams, the slasher of my big pride

You patron my moods, you're the twin of my smile


Your love is a massive crowd that cheer my heart
Your hand is the sun that catches and warms my soul

You paint all corrodes that threatens my future
You cement my dreams, the stars seems so near

You dish away nonsense, critics are cage as slaves

You're my ultimate king
You're my platinum win

You make me mingle with my spirits
Tatter dark till there's a healing

Meeting you was a mistake
Loving you is a cheeful beautiful mistake

Game Over

I uttered an authoritative groan as he let
go of my hand
This was it
Never ever was I again going to stroke his
cheeks or fondle any other art in his
glittery body
I wanted to run away as memories
spanked my mind
The pain was lethal furious,eating my
every part
Showing who was mightier
This man had spices,such that had no
names or shapes
His tongue was a troublemaker, tasting
norms only God knows
Enslaving me, making me obey,
Obey to his ruins and whimps all day,
See I worshipped this kind of beauty, this
fine-textured lust
His passion was a poison I gladly and
willingly took
Pain and sorrow playing at it best
But God knew better for this embedded
love or was it a fore-play and the rare bit
is here nah?
But I played in the pain thrill embracing
the warmth, the beauty of this drama
As he nicknamed me names but best was
BAby Ema
So I rode in this wilderness bowing at his
feet
Swimming in romance, teasing my king
It was fun, I was alive and it became clear
With this kind of heat is why men exists
To carve and scatter my intestines, his
every pinch was like nourishing in the
feets of heaven and dancing in the skies
of Mercury
But now I was here hot and steamy, my
nipples were dancing and whinning to the
sun rays
And the hiss of my steam was ramping to
a singing voice
And all I could do was to watch him
disappear
I was dying to throw away my multi-
billion stained dignity
Cause his body turned out to be the most
expensive at that moment for me
I was ready to marry the golden outfits of
sin and be a love freak
I was feeling buds of bliss and banners of
missing booing my knees
Questioning me, asking me to rip my
jeans insanely for a quickie
So I closed the easiest thing, but opening
and closing my eyes was the deadliest
thing,
He was gone in a sec
I watched myself melt away in the juicy
desire of wanting him
But it was over
He had said it yesterday, our last night
together
That was the last of our best.......

My Heart Was King

YOUR HEART WAS KING

When I met you

Your life began

But soon

Mine ended


You asked for my flawless heart

I gave it to you without thinking twice

I protected you against your weaknesses

And swung off shame that was reeking

From your highly troubled past

I fought your battles and breathed life

To your weak lose lungs

My green touch brought the world

To your rickety bony feet


I embraced your wildest fantasies

Led you towards the land of ecstasies

I cried your tears and injected your pain

Upon my spotless shy heart

Always giving a smile in all that hurt

I adorned you with every bit of me

Each of my kiss showed you how to live

Each of my heartbeat showed you how to breathe


Now let’s walk to the nightmarish memory lane

When you first brought her home

That day you completely crashed my heart

I cried tears of the sea

From that tick my body grew thin

Episodes of naïve self delusions

From the pain and stress

Of ‘the return’ to your past life


Sharing our bed with your catch

Was a humiliation bomb that

Exploded in my poor face

I took a moment to absorb

That painful energy that roamed

In the atmosphere rubbing roughly

Against my heart, sipping my pride

Eating away my muscular faith


Still I stood by you in your endeavors

I believed you were somebody

Worthy to deposit my future into

I was wrong as my tumbling joy

Came trembling down

Erecting a thunder in my heart

As the frightening huge pain

Punched the glow out of me  


As you again brought an extra

Of your catch home

Splendid, like a model

With glittering gold

Upon her long thin neck

Diamonds hang in her ears

You stood so low

Using all our savings

For such a discounted thing


Still this love was too strong so pain

Grew horns and attacked in the wicked

Of ways, his sharpened horns slashed

Across my body to where my heart hide

My lungs refused to breath and my eyes

Hurled in shock as the wordless misery

Stole my fluffy fantasies and dark naughty

Smoke wrapped up all my ecstasies


My heart was king

My heart was your pride


When I met you

Your life began

But soon

Mine ended


A challenge by Nic Fab to reply to his ‘Your Heart Is King’, hope my answer is properly around the trait of the topic nick…..
