First kiss

You will never know, I will never tell the speed
My heart raced when we finally kissed that day
That instant liberation from every other need
Felt like we were the ones for Shakespeare's next play

Life stops at different stations
At every part of the part, we have to make a choice
Our choice to segregate from each other, made in a dilemma
Today I saw you in my way of life, you were looking prettier than before
My past remembrances running through my mind
Heartbeats pounding fasts, my eyes always longed to see you
Without uttering a word, you just smiled at me like a child
I was numb, solely remembering happy moments I shared with you
As I moved ahead towards you, I was startled by a voice from the heart
My heart whispered, " you both moved in life, you can't be together like past".
Within a blink of an eye, you said waving me goodbye.
I am feeling restless, want to hug my love in my arms
But I know its too late to stop you
Strong air breezes passing by, I am alone, even my shadow left me
My mind recalling memories of love down the lane
There was a time, I used to see the world in your eyes
Now presently, we are a world apart
Im in dilemma, but I know I need to move on in life
Love is all about sacrifices on small things in life for living together
But you refused to sacrifice your dreams, left me alone in life
I respect you and your dreams
I pray for your wellness in this world
I just smiled at my past, I will move on and leave it behind

Love Quest.

Intense are the waves
Of feeling at it's best
My inside raves
Awakening and stirring my chest.

How my heart springs
Like a nestling around a nest
Trying to fly its wings
Why is this so beyond my behest?

Uncontrollable are my feelings
But with you my heart finds rest
In search of your lovely givings
Like the sunset I follow you towards the west.

You ended my love quest
Giving me a breath of new beginnings
For you my heart fills with zest
For the joyful moments this love brings.

A great and skilled attempt at portraying the dichotomy, in life and death, in a war, painting a picture of the mirror opposite outcomes that result from it.

I absolutely loved the rhyming. I felt it was very beautiful and natural.

The Title was very elegant, but I think it didn't fit perfectly, tell me what were your thoughts, what did you mean to convey with the title?

The line "To glimmer and happiness" in the first stanza needs to be changed a bit because you used both positive words, one needs to be negative for the dichotomy to work out, as well as to aptly describe the next stanzas. And "bejeweled" in the last line needs to be changed, because it is used to go with jewels, precious gems and precious stones.

Here are the improvements and additions I suggest to the poem (I am copying your whole poem and editing it to save time)
Here goes:

Title: FATE OF WAR


A beautiful doomsday
Makes its way
To the glimmer and happiness
Of two families’ consciousness
DELIVERING AND SUNDERING HAPPINESS, TO AND FROM, TWO FAMILIES, DIVIDED BY A WAR THAT SEEMED ENDLESS

One’s wife cried till all hell broke loose,
When she saw him after so long, her delight was profuse,
For he was there to wipe her tears away,
He was there for her, there to make a headway,
THEIR ROMANCE, RENDERED QUIESCENT/FORCED INTO AN INTERMISSION, BY THE WAR ACROSS THE BAY

Another’s wife cried, but this time, for truce,
When she saw him after so long, her sorrow was profuse,
For he was there but could not wipe her tears as big as pebbles,
He was lying in a coffin,
BEDECKED IN MEDALS AND RIBBONS, FOR ALL OF HIS FATAL TROUBLES!

Thunder nights, stormy skies...
In fleet of winds, faster the times fly
Fate at play, Will - the bait...
All eyes glued at the liberation gate.
Dices roll, keys are lost
What will it cost?

Nothing ever ends....

Nothing ever ends,
Nothing ever starts
Not the whole picture,
You see some parts.
Stories change, but
Incidents remain.
Everything vapes away,
Chuckles, laughter & pain.
Tales of the greater good that we are fed,
Just to blind us, while good & evil copulate in bed.
They bear no offspring, conceive no child
All they ejaculate is the truth that's defiled.
Themes of morality are just Thought-Porn,
Directed by the noble Lord, hooded with devilish horns.
Who's good, who's better, you hardly can tell...
Well, tell me this,
If God dies,
Will he go to heaven or hell?

What are adults?

Title: Adulting - A Study in Adapting to Somersaulting

Adults are great big stress balls of determination,
Always working for betterment in their chosen vocation.

Douchy bosses and bossy spouses, stretching their already painful days into endless frustration,

They often reminisce of their younger selves, and teenage days with a stellar recollection,

When everything used to seem sunshine and rainbows, without the need for any introspection,

And they were free from all these anxieties, just lost in their reflection!

Title : SLEEPLESS

Lying on the bed, when everyone sleeps;
Random thoughts rise and creativity peeps!
Imagining the normal as well as weirdest things;
And flying freely with those wings!
From thinking about how I wasted another day;
To fearing exams which are on the way.

After today, what does she think of me?
Facing me she smiled, that everyone could see!
Also today she laughed, on that stupid joke;
The lame comedian inside me was such stoked!
Her thoughts are so beautiful, everything my mind believes;
On her fabric with dreams, every day this fool weaves!

What will happen if terrorists attacked?
Everyone's captivated and college hijacked!
That time will require someone to sacrifice;
So I'll be the saviour, ready to save the lives.
Thinkin' of gallantry awards and tears on my grave;
Influenced by movies, these thoughts are too naive.

What if, I get a chance to be a superhero?
The powers I'll get, the changes I'll undergo!
To fight like batman, to swirl like the thor;
To control like the strange, can't ask for more.
And one day 'Vilgax' invades, asks strongest to fight;
I'll the saviour again, bringing back the planet to light!


Drifting between universes, when I reached back to reality;
The sun was about to rise, now sleep became just a formality!
Another day gave the sacrifice, whole day the eyes slept;
Saviour was the casualty, the remorseful superhero wept!
"Today I will sleep early", on the mirror I screamed;
Still once again lying on the bed, insolent eyes began to dream.

Sunshine Baby

Barely awake, it was only dawn
My sleepy feet stumbled out the front door
And onto the old swing on the grassy lawn

Awake in peaceful stillness, like death
No one else in the entire neighborhood
Not a sound, nor a breath

Escape

All we look is for an escape
Escape from the lies & from the truth,
Escape from the memories that hurt like a sore tooth.
Escape from love that's gone bad,
Escape from being happy or too sad
Escape from impotency & from fight,
Escape from duties & also from our rights.
Escape from fear or from being too brave,
Escape from the past, or from future's dark cave.
Escape from the silence, & from the chance to have our say.
Escape from the consequences that our actions put to play.
Escape from the opportunities & from being left back in line,
Escape from that one thing that can turn everything fine.
All we look is for an escape from acting out.
Then what are we left with?
Just a lame reason to cry about.

BEHIND THE MASK

On a hot, sultry afternoon,
I couldn't help but notice a masked man limp.
Unable to conceal my emotions,
I laughed out loud.

He seemed to have noticed
Yet, to our surprise, remained calm.
Reading our changing expressions, he said —
'You may laugh all you want,
But being robbed of choices is why I'm doing this'.

His words left our minds bickering,
Giving rise in us, a thirst for answers.
The next time, at a similar instance,
I gathered my courage and let it all out -
The questions, the thoughts, the suggestions.

The answers baffled us, adding on to the confusion
Nevertheless, we got to witness a beautiful scene.
The expressions of a man who worked out of force,
Yet giving us the time of our life, with such joy.

Whether that explained the mask on the face,
I know not, for what the mask hid, I cannot say.

Poem: GIFT FROM MY BELOVED


It was a dark and cloudy night,

So the stars weren't shining bright.

Just to make her see the stars I thought to clear the sky.

Stealing the Witch's broom I flew high and high.

And the reason was just "to clear the sky"

I didn't know how will I make it, but I said, "No, I have to try".

I cleared the sky! Telling the clouds my beloved's story.

I told them everything, even that I said "I'm sorry"

I came down to see,

Thinking that she was eagerly waiting for me.

I found that there was no one except a letter.

It was from her, my forehead frowned greater!

The letter was being opened and I could hear the lup-dup beat.

I opened the letter, it said, "Just go to hell damn it"

*Oh, dear friend of mine.*
_Omolola Natural_ .

Where do you go when you need to think
who do you call when you need to rest
I know can't change the past
but as the river keeps flowing,
I keep on moving on.
I miss this dearest friend of mine;
I miss the beach.

The breeze that blows like nothing else
The whisper in her voice
The glam with which she rise and fall
The beauty of her song
The coolness of her touch
I miss her playfulness and call
Her allure and her strength
Her beauty ever new
I miss her melody
The song that never breaks
The color that never fades

I miss our discussions
And the peace staring at her brings
The smile that only she knows.
I miss the inspirations
And the infillings when I feel drained.
There's no where else like her side.
Oh precious friend of mine!

New people

Do you think your's life is done?
Honey! You need new people!
Cause torn clothes need to be changed!
You can't wear them your whole life.

I wrote this and i feel like it doesn't make sense, does it?
#review

should this step be my last walk, what story will my footprints carry?
of a lost race and forgotten history?

should this word be my last speech, what tone will my voice convey?
of a last man and unfinshed day?

should this sigh be my last air, what weight will my breath have?
of a lent life and wasted chance?

QUESTIONING HUMANITY

Seeing the world ’round me,
I was forced to question humanity.
Why do we fight amongst ourselves,
When we can accept everyone and live happily?

Why do we wound each other with daggers,
That miss our heart, but puncture our lungs.
Causing us to breathe painfully,
With more than a pinch of scorn and agony’s garnish?

What’d we lose if we accept the equality among us,
Regardless of skin, gender sexuality,
And the numbers that roll into our accounts,
On a monthly basis?

What joy do we get by labelling and shaming?
Aren’t we born with the seeds of integrity sown in us?
Can we not respect others, yet express views?
What good do we do by suppressing the “weaker ones”?

Why do we fall for the collective madness,
Thinking that it guarantees us safety,
When we haven’t ventured into the unknown,
To prove and accept it?

Why can’t we just make the world
A place where love flows like water,
Where equality showers like raindrops,
Erasing all the signs of the thoughts that corrupt our lives?

Is it too hopeful to think,
That, maybe, one day,
Everything will fall in place,
And we’ll all be in peace?

After all,
If we fight with fire,
We only ignite ourselves,
Setting the world on fire.
