Love her nerve, love her heart,
always be her biggest fan,
love her just the way she is:
allow her light to shine bright
because it will echo back your way;
but mutual must it be
she must reciprocate.
They say that,
“everybody’s got skeletons
in their closet”;
It’s true because two or three
hide in my closet too.
They relentlessly rattle in my heart,
noisily dance unabated on my mind,
threaten to develop wings and escape
so as to damage my reputation.
Somewhere inside my tall, dark and handsome body lies a brain. The two, my body and brain, are interdependent and constitute my hardware, so to speak. Though it brags that it does the thinking for me; my brain is useless without my mind, which is its software, its operating system, that processes information and lessons…Continue Reading “ALL OF ME”
Finally, I give up,
I can’t take it anymore
I am free …., again.
And to put an end to the rumours,

I hereby make it public
in broad daylight;
my relationship with my bae
has been difficult,

How endearing it is to angelically fly high
to the comfort zone,
Like a book, is made up of a series of Chapters, which have been written by a pen whose ink was my feelings, words, thoughts, actions, non-actions, choices, character development and relationships.

How safe are we when the phones in our pockets take note of wherever we go; whatever we do; whomever we meet; and which, when, and how we meet them. It seems that our behavior is now accurately monitored, surveilled, and predicted. It all began with someone’s dream of a connected world; a space where…Continue Reading “The Internet of Things”
My Dear,
Since the moment
I looked into your eyes;
since that day
when I found you,
you found me,
