The Strange "E"

-
How can I zip it in like it doesn't exist.
How can I take it in like the lizard takes in it's head.
Can I say it doesn't matter?
Why was I given it??
My Emotions.


Who will believe me when I say I'm more pregnant with emotions than with tears.
Who will take me in and console me knowing fully well I can't quench this fire that wants to burn me out.
My Emotions.

I tried to be a big boy.
I thought that would settle it.
My disposition placed me in more desperation.
I couldn't subdue what was not meant to be subdued.
My Emotions.

Blood is thicker, friendship is stronger, experience is deeper, conditions are richer. Only that path is a stranger.
My Emotions.

I told them, I'll love easily.
It was counted as folly.
Now I can't help but breathe my emotions.
How can I deliver myself from the Divines grip?
Is it a gift or a rift?
My Emotions.

My Mistake. A story written by Oche Jeremiah. Episode 1. For crying out loud what is life without friendship?? The word is even having a ship within. I guess it's so because it can either take you to your destination or bundle you to a strange destination. It all started as a normal friendship. We were so into each other. I mean the care, the openness, the passion for GOD and the zeal to make Him know to everyone truly consumed us. I met her when we were in Js1. I was taller than her and I was more than happy to accept her as someone whose words has always supported me. Everyone nicknamed us as 'couple'. Although I put up a strong face each time they said that physically, when in actual truth within I craved for it. I loved the sound of it. I mean who won't like to have such a girl by his side. I truly loved every bit of it. That was how we grew from js1 till we got to js3. It was growing and blossoming. All I couldn't say was "is this real or ...

Her Searching Voice, My Ultimate Discovery  A conversational discourse between a father and his daughter.  Daddy, is it right to restrict people from doing what they want to do especially as they have grown up?  Will it not be totally wrong to always tell your precious daughter that she cannot do this or do that even when you know others are doing it without been harmed or stopped?  Why are teenagers often subjected to such bondage of taste not, touch not and the likes?  We can’t visit friends, friends cannot visit us, we can’t move about, we can’t even explore our own environment because you our parents will not allow us. Is that really fair dad?  Why can we not be trusted? We must we have parents who have given birth to us but who never believe that we don’t have something evil or negative off our sleeve?  If we make calls in your presence, you will ask who we were talking to. If we receive calls, you keep monito...

Lost through Lust Many destinies have been destroyed because of this enemy. Many never got to the peak of their youthful grace because it pulled them down. Someone wants to tell us a story to illustrate this. Read to the end. You'll be glad you did. Hmmmmmmm OMG😤😤😤😤 Is this my life??? What a pity. I still cant say how i got myself into this strange puzzle. How did I land myself into this mud??? How will I be a king that has recorded tremendous success yet my family is in disarray. I've lost three of my sons because of my foolishness. I lost the eldest who indeed would have taken over from me. Now I've lost the most handsome of them all. I so loved him because he reminded me of so many things. Now he's dead. He died such a painful death. How did it all start??? I need to go down memory lane to share my bitter story. That evening, I had just delegated my powers as the commander in chief to my captain. I asked him to represent me in the battle wh...
