You are beautiful yet you ask
How beautiful am I?
You are strong yet you look in the mirror thinking.
Am I strong enough? Continue reading Unsure

Humans are relational beings; and thus, we owe our existence to the ability to cultivate relationships that sustain our mental, physical, emotional and psychological tranquility. In every relationship, there are roles played by each correspondence, and these roles are defined by several factors; age, position, class, family, culture, spirituality, and tradition. This plays out in such a way that it creates dominant and subordinate(dependent) individuals in the relationships. Interestingly, as adults we play both roles of being both dependent and dominant at the same time, across different relationships, and thus there is a diffusion of a learned trait from a relationship circle to another one; and this goes on and on, creating a tangle of relationship traits.

My hair and I are not always the best of friends.
We sometimes fight, and we sometimes make up.
She gives me all this work and all this trouble,
Yet I love her for what she is, and what she represents. Continue reading My African Hair

A joyful will, I penned it down.
Years went by, faces changed.
The Sun remained the same. Continue reading Salt & Ashes
“Every lady has her own appeal…
Her beauty lies in the details.
Only those who have genuinely searched for it can find it.
Only those who have found it can try to comprehend the beauty that is her creation.Only those desperate to shelter it are deserving enough to grab onto the gold that holds the power to decorate one’s destiny.”

Sometimes, we cannot expect those in our lives to be encouraging of our daily endeavours.
Sometimes, the loudest voices of derogation, or the most demotivating of expressions do not come from without, but from within. Continue reading The Loudest Voices of Discouragement

At certain points in life, we realize our instincts were right all along.
Certain disasters could have been avoided
But could they really have?

Imagine with me for a second a world without sound.
The ocean without the lapping and flapping of the waves,
“When you decide to fight against the wind, to kick against the thorns, to swim against the waves, or tell the thunder to be silent, you fight a lost battle.
“There is a something ness in the nothingness of space.
Something loud and noisy in the silence of emptiness.
A loud exclamation and proclamation telling us each time that in this nothingness is a something ness that has existed even before time itself.
A nothingness full of something-ness.”

When I look at old pictures of you,
I see God’s girl Legacy.
I often wonder if you remember me.
I really don’t want to bother you,
so please save your energy.
We haven’t talked in a while.
Funny how distance blends time together.
