BROKEN HEART BY OLIVIA

Broken heart..
No, not broken, shattered to many tiny pieces..
I don't think it's possible to put it back, to mend it with any glue.
Bleeding from the heart,
Cut at different edges..
All because of a four letter word, L.O.V.E.,
drives you insane, makes you do things you don't want to do, then it steals your most precious possession, your heart.
Depression is a bitch
Worse still, heartache is a curse.
 Yearning for comfort like someone gasping for breath..
Salty water always dripping down your cheeks, smearing your mascara..
Too many thoughts clouding your reasoning.
No, you can't do this no more,  it's time to flip the freaking switch..
To let go of dear humanity.  not to care about a bloody fool.
Time to ride solo ..
Time to be a bloody lone Ranger..
To be a fearless lone wolf.
Time to devour any timid soul that decides to step on your toes.
No cares, no more worries.
Just you being alone, again.

SCHOOL SWEET BUT EXAMS...... - Uncle Stephen

Image
My friend ONOS says 'Stevo! School sweet but na exam spoil am' An adage many of us agree with. Examination time in the university instills the fear of God in all and sundry. People who spent the entire semester faffing and jonsing suddenly remember that education is the best Legacy. Men dem who didn't attend classes during the day, suddenly become night class ambassadors and some others go to different lengths just to survive exams. I had a friend who to read, he would soak his legs in a bowl of water and for the next twelve years, baba's eye will never close. All he needed to do was just change the water after a while and keep nibbling on his shirt, twisted to become pointy. In fact, to better soak in a particular point, he would put the tip in between his tongue and upper teeth and suck on it. Na my own go loss? Baba was getting some nice A's after being an O O all semester. I had to join in this exam water baptism so the dove of knowledge can land on my head ...

CAMPUS DILEMMA 2

CAMPUS DILEMMA 2 The banging at my door woke me from my sleep. I realized the mess I have made on my bed. Jeez!!, so it was all a dream with Cindy tormenting me this bad. I rolled of the bed spread , got into my boxer and went to answer the door . 7 . 00 am , summary , I slept after talking with Precious and had a dream with Cindy . No wonder they said most of our dreams are made up by our day actions and thoughts . That Sunday just like other Sundays , I didn ’ t feel like going to church . I can ’ t remember the last time I went to church . I think the last time was in the first semester of my first year . Truth is that I am a staunch catholic . In fact, it flows in my blood . My parents are knights in the Catholic Church . I started serving at the alter when I was 10years old. I lost the appetite for church activities after my first year and since then I have been worshipping God in my own way . I did my morning drills of 150 pushups ( 30 ×5 ) and 150 sit ups ( 50 ×3 ) , had my ...

CALiSTUS By Thywill

                            Calistus The court was filled to the brim. Men, women and children all looked sternly at the plaintiff as Winifred handed the arraignment to the jury. There was silence as the judge called the court to order and moved a motion for my trial. I looked at my old friend, Winifred as tears streamed from my eyes. She wasn't the judge, but I needed her help this time as one. Unfortunately, it was late. Calistus has filed a case against me of killing his one year old son. I was to be jailed for life if found guilty. Quickly, the events that brought me to this honourable court, now my greatest place of ruin appeared in my head. My seventh abortion was successful. "You'll need to start using contraceptives if I should advise", the doctor had said. I met Calistus on my friend's birthday party. I was in my third year in Pharmacy, he was in his penultimate. I lived a lone life since I lost my b...
