THE PROPOSAL



Good Morning Dear,

Today I woke up to think very strongly of you
Though its been 2 years that we met
But this month makes the 6th month that I totally
Opened my heart and soul to you.
Not that I've not loved you all this while
But it was then full of doubts and fear
This made me withdrew at a point, just to be clear
Then, the cloud became dark and I became confused
So many ladies around me, wanting to seduce
They all trying to gain my attention
I ran back to God for a new direction
Then back you came, with a renewed affection.
I opened my heart once again
And made the corridor of my soul accessible to your reign.

I have loved you ever since
With every little thing in my bone
I have stayed true to you alone as a woman of my own
Though we are different
I believe our differences should make strong
Since we have a unifying factor
Which is the God our creator.
God in us is the hope of glory,
He alone knows our temperament
He alone can make our story.

I want to be your friend so also you mine
I want you to be my best friend
Through the sand of time
I want to grow with you and mature with you
I want to be your King and you my Queen
I want to love you with all my being.
I want your commitment not just engagement
I want your involvement in my God given assignment
I want you in me and me in you
Oneness and Togetherness
To be the reason for our existence.
I pray our mind is renewed
From now on
In a Godly view.

Abayomi
The Bishop of your heart (July 2016)

INK TO PINK

I'm picking my ink to write a new song
Your name on my lips so sweet ;a pink to speak in tongues
I have waited so long but now it’s my turn
To show you how the love in me for you burns.
                
I’m picking my ink for a love song to sing
Your thought tickles my hearth and makes my bell to ring
You are better than others; it’s only your smile in me that pings
I need you to fly cos am just a man with only one wing
I need you to complete me as an Angel so we can both swing
Together we can climb the highest mountain and forever we'll win.
 
I'm picking my ink for you to be my identity
I'm writing these lines out of emotional curiosity
Welcoming you to my world of Love and Reality
I will hold you in my hands and give you Care and Security
Magnanimously will I revolve you with Gift and Charity
I will take you on a trip of Life and Sanity
And write you more lines filled with great Words of Purity.
 
I'm picking my ink just to make my point straight                               
Relating with my Pink, so my love she won’t underestimate
Even though I’m out of the ship to walk on waters
I still can smell your Rose in the garden of my lonely quarters
You are Black and Berry, your smile pings me like a Sweet Mother
You are the margarine spread on my bread, a taste of a beautiful butter.
The sweetness in my tea, my only Brown Sugar
With you, on and on my soul will forever linger.
 
I don’t do Rhymes for all
But I give it only to one
She that makes my fire burn
And makes me drink no Rum.
Tell me how many lines I must write to make a beautiful rhyme
Tell me how many rhymes I must create just to make you mine
Tell me how many steps to take just to be on time
Cos' Love without you could be a Crime.
