HAVE YOU SEEN MY WORST?



As gentle as a dove 
Kind as a man so kind 
With your right attitude you blind
My perception of men
You care so much for me 
You were there when I was lonely 
Your giving mentality change mine 
You give like you are the richest in the world

Yet, you are not the richest in your family 
Your humble nature humbles the arrogant me 
You retaliate my wrongs with love 
Friends deserted you because of me 
No guy has ever treated me the way you do 
Sometimes I wonder if you are from this planet 
Because you are just a perfect definition 
of perfection 
You are a rare gem 
That's rare to come by:

These are the ways you describe me
But if things turn out and time change 
If I show you the human side of me, 
If you know the worst of me 
Will you still love me? 

Have you seen my worst? 
If my worst is known to you 
Will the adjectives still the same?

You are the talk of the town
 Because I'm your crown
Not because are a clown
If things change, will you still love me?

My six-packs
 Often get your heart hack
But if it all gone
Will you stay or step back?

I'm acting like a man from above
This often sparks your love
If my worst known to you
Will this love still be intact?
*****

Footnote
It is easy to boast that we love people when they are in their perfect state. But when things turn out and they act otherwise we revoke as if we were not the ones that have pledged to be there for them come rain, come shine. But the little mistake, we run.

This is just an indication that we have never love them in the first place. Love believes the best even in the face of seeming worst.

Let me hang my pen here, till we meet again next time.
Remember, keep being you and keep being good.

IT MATTER

IT MATTER! The topic to be discussed today is ‘it matter’, but the question is, what matters? Join me as we look into this deeply.  When I was in secondary school my Agricultural science teacher taught us then GERMINATION and the factor responsible for growth. Some of the factors are: viable seeds, moisture or water, nutrient (soil) and air (oxygen) When I meditatively considered these factors I realized that not even one out of them is un-important. If any of them isn’t available then the seed growth or germination is in jeopardy. Applying this into our lives’ journey as humans, it is evident that some factors also responsible for our own growth in every endeavors of life. Some take this serious while some others don’t.  When I say growth I do not mean increase in the number of age. Neither do I mean increase in stature. We grow in business, career, and ministry and so on. For us to grow in life we need to take these factors seriously. For instance the viabil...

I PROPOSED A DECEIT

I was born when the time was still partially measured by the throaty crow of the cocks. When if cock refuses to crow, the time was measured by the height of shadow.  I can still very much remember how my father would say the time is three o'clock in the afternoon because the shadow had reached a certain height on the wall in our backyard. Sometimes I was wowed at the level of his intelligence.  He didn't mark that particular spot on the wall and he never for once missed it. I tried doing but kept on missing it. Then, I used charcoal to Mark it. Isn't beautiful to say I also measured time by the height of shadow? Winks.  My father was a farmer and partially a hunter. He was very diligent and good at what he does. He had cocoa, cola nut, plantain, yam, maize, cowpea, and rice farms. He was rich in goats, and different kinds of fowls. Apart from the fact that he uses labor we the children were also part of the labors employ on his farm.  We worked all ye...

IS IT A CRUSH OR LOVE?

I was like a lone unpaired electron. I had friends who told me how they feel about the opposite gender. I had mocked quite a number of them. Because all that they told me about their feelings sound to me like foolishness. I had seen some of them went for two days without food just because of the opposite gender. They have always told me my time would come when I would need their help. I told them the love thing is not my thing. Wait for it they replied.  It was on Sunday evening, I was on my way to viewing center to watch Arsenal match against Chelsea.  I saw the damsel as I'd never seen before. She appeared like a gleaming lake. Her light was like a pale moon. The aura of her presence illuminates. Then I felt a nudge from inside; she is beautiful. Her smiles can make a bittered soul sweet. The smelt of her body was like that of an alabaster box. I saw her front empire and forgot about what had earlier transpired between me and my friends. Let me stay in this em...
