MORE THAN A MUSE
ADEKUNLE P_PEN
I am ready to let it go
This strange god in me called muse
For I no longer want to worship a stammering deity
That lack words to express the passion burning my feelings
If pen can write the language of this feelings
It will be similar to one spoken in the land of undying love
My muse has lost the battle between reason and feelings
Words can’t express the desire to have you
Call it lust, crush, like or love, whichever. But
Permit me to flirt with the letters of my complex feelings
For the fragile emotion bonding my pen and my heart
Is beyond the scope of what my muse can express
YOHANNA
I love your lips when they are locked in a smile
I am breathless each time you swallow
I lose myself every time our skins touch.
My heart stretches a mile each time you laugh
To your radiance, the sun holds no candle
To your magic, the moon bows
Love is the easy gazes and the shared smiles
The blinding passion, the short spats
Love is the shared victories and pains
The frenzied moments, the fluttering of our hearts.
If music would tease your soul, I'll Rob a genie and wish me be a nightingale
If touches would warm your heart, I'll grow a million limbs
If treasures were your fantasy, I'll hurl down half the stars.
If Solitude would feed your soul, I'll give you an island
My heart could not hold what I felt
So I bared my soul.
