LONELINESS IN THE CROWD

 


In the midst of interrogation

With different perspectives, different faces

Different discussions and different conclusions

Also, different situations and different cases.


I stand as a subject

Not the subject matter

 but one that doesn't matters

An alien in gathering of the living

Only one thing stands out

Which is for better.


Am hurt inside, busy in my head

Rhetorical questions flow in like a river

But where I stand I shiver

Cuz, my words don't count to anyone

Leave or love it 

I remain real to myself.


Enough of this insults!

I can't take it anymore

You're a human, I am human too

So why turn deaf ears to my words?

To my doings , To my way of life

Is that not cruelty.


The world we all lived in

Is built with cruelty not purity

Whatsoever happens in it 

Take it as a phase of live

In time everything will change

Loneliness won't exist

And your smile will be restored back.

DARK WORLD

DARK WORLD We live in a dark world full of evil and good I dwell in a circle of threat,  You always see me in my worried mood My feet is placed on the floor of heat. You see the blind says: Don't focus on me too much, you might fall. While the deaf says: The wall reveal your words, I heard all you said. The rich as a god While the needy as a slave Weak ones belittled in the wicked world. A dark space, scary and suffocating No room for breathing Rules are made, but not kept People's words can split one's neck like a sword I'm connected to pains like an umbilical cord. I want to leave but am trapped. Can't you migrate?  Do you wish to end here? Never do I wish for all this But life happens.i overthink, constantly  I think of how to survive In the dark world, a place of good and evil Bargaining is not an option Find your niche Find your light  And let it guide you. ©Dada Oluwafemi ✍️ 2026.

AFRICAN BLEEDS

 AFRICAN BLEEDS Can we ever sleep with our  eyes close again? Can we ever move freely without being curious? Can we ever Smile and nod in acceptance... That I love my country? When is all this atrocities going to end? African bleeds, as the people weep Sorrow here, sorrow there like a beep It all happen so fast and unexpected Only the sad news spread with a teary wings.  Human beings are slaughter like animals Blood flows like a stream in every vicinity Where's our dignity? For Godsake, killing never ends Sorrow never fades  yet the Government sit and assume all is fine . Do we even have a President? Is he alive? He act like a dead man  Because his presence is not felt His orders ends at his doormat ,  His voice echoes in their house not to the country All this dey sele u dey ask wetin dey play? Na who e no happen to go say Nigeria is fine While other citizens dey suffer alots . Our flag represent what again? No be unity? But na insanity... Dey play everywh...
