ONE EYE




ONE EYE

I look up and I see your one eye.

You've always been an enigma to me, only coming out in moments like this.

I admire you, you enchant me with your veiny turquoise eye.

Your antennas brings a smile to my face.

Never have I seen such beauty in such monstrosity.

The longer I stare, the deeper you pull me in.

I don't know if I should find you comforting or I should run from you, I can't seem to decide.

I see the words I'd never get to say in your one eye.

I see the regret.

I see the pain.

The water ripples around me. I exhale, closing my eyes.

You want me to stay but I don't. 

I want to go with you, because only you have cared to join me in my darkest moments.

You could even say I love you.

One eye.

But you don't love me, it would seem.

You don't want me.

I see that now.

I look at the razor just sitting there at the edge of the tub.

What if I didn't give you a choice?

I feel your wings entrapping me as they flap.

You were leaving, leaving me like the rest of them.

But then I hear you say a word before you disappear.


'Live.'

Hi😉

My name is Idowu Taiwo, I'm Nigerian and this is my first blog ever created. Whoo hoo!!😁 Where to start, Oh the pressure!😬 I'm a lot of things: I'm a lover of God, a content creator, a beginner in Digital Marketing (hopefully that'll change soon😁), a photographer, an aspiring author( I actually have written two books). Yay🌼 I also sing together with my sister.🤗 I love reading, I'm actually still an undergraduate and I love the learning experience—come and fight me.🙃 Just joking though, I don't have a fighting bone in my body.😅 I'm a huge movie buff, I love cartoons and I'm a huge advocate of love, true unadulterated love. I'm a calm and collected person who believes in the power of light over darkness. And that's why I do what I do—to spread a little bit of light however way that I can.  I look forward to meeting my lovely viewers and I hope you are too. Good bye! Oh, a kiss before I go yonder. Muah!😘

The Rebirth.

 A phoenix dies and is reborn. Have you ever wondered why it has to burn? It needs to empty the old self and bring in the new. Fire strengthens. It toughens. It hardens. I'm silver tried in the furnace, Burned seven times, I'm shining now, I'm shining. I'm stronger, better than ever. I'm growing and I won't stop, Not until all is finished. I'll keep pushing, I'll keep holding on. . . . Taiwolilly✌

THE TOWER

We're all going up, striving for something, A better house, better cars, better jobs... But what really matters the most? That is the billion dollar question, right? Why do we do all of these, what is the end point? We know the end though we don't know _when_ it comes, But along the way, striving for these things, let us not forget those who love us, those who were there, those we laughed with, those we became stronger with, This life is indeed vanity but what's more is what comes after our race,  Will you be the winner of the race or the loser? Eternity is longer than our mortality, I can't not make it home after all I've been through here, So with each floor I climb, I must never forget what lies beyond the top of the tower, It's either I fall off, Or I fly beyond, So, dear reader, what will it be? Want to fly with me? From a flower in her garden, Taiwolilly ✌ . . . . A/N: It's been so long😣, I'm sorry for the late update. Please do let me know what y...
