God For Me
you have provided me
what I had expected from God
thus you have become
God for me

I shall know
I shall know
When time comes to throw
Whole of my weight to that belief
For providing real relief
It is expected
To change when truly acted
In love, in hate and in recognition
You have provided me true ignition
Dreams do come true
When one has passed through
In ordeals and in real
To the greatness and to fee
I, for one, loved and lost
But what did it cost?
Nothing in fact
All were nice acts
It is true union
To find with companion
When one feels truly blessed
Relief from life when not at all chased
It is just a smile
That provided happiness meanwhile
All goes well with his mercy
I share and bow before almighty
You were never to be mine
To provide me joy to feel fine
It has come from a great wave
When I had escape and clean shave
What on part is expected?
Real bond and promises to be acted
In spirit and in anticipation
For strengthening the relation

The Last Embrace
You walked as fast as you could
Bringing with you some food to partake
Life is difficult, you have to make do
With the provisions the nuns have provided
For you and your husband to keep afloat each day
Keeping him company
Dependent, relying upon him
Feeling alone, lonely and neglected
Never the love and affection you expected
For many years your hidden heart embedded
He comfortably provided you
With a home you call your own
Tried working night and day
His illness had to wait, he must save
For rainy days, the future has to stay
In the dimly lit room he slept in peace
Never waking to see the dawn
Holding his hands, so frail and cold
You were alone — again, lonely and neglected
You breathe as deeply as you can
You have the last embrace …
thank you for dropping by and leaving your heart print. I will always treasure it...God bless you

I Would Like To Apologize As Well
By the way...
I'd like to take this opportunity,
To apologize for all those negative things...
I said about you.
'No problem at all.
I would like to apologize as well.'
You do?
For what?
'For all those things you will regret,
Once you come to realize...
I was there to protect your back.
And now that you've convinced everyone,
My purpose was to feed my own ego...
I am sure you will remember that,
Now that you are in front.
And expected to lead!
By all means...
Do that as you please.
In fact,
What you've done...
Has provided me with relief! '

Expecting
Your mouth said this never
but your fingers have shown me
that your head is so clever
you claim that you own me
forever
You have the right to conduct me
in whatever fashion
your attempt construct me
in the interest of passion
you sent me
to toledo
I came back with handfulls
I did what you asked me
but after the thank yous
that you quickly got passed me
Im expected
youre expecting
Im expected

Convenience
Needing!
And again I am from you...
Addiction free.
What you provided was not love.
What you provided,
Was a convenience to me.
A convenience to have someone there.
To hear breathing the air.
As if the company kept...
Communicated with chemistry.
Needing!
And again I am from you...
Addiction free.
It occurred to me,
To you I was just something to do.
And that wasn't done,
Seriously.
Even together,
You preferred to play hide and seek.
And I discovered,
I want and need love.
And when you left that feeling stayed.
Then I knew what you gave,
Was not love.
But a game to be played.
Needing!
And again I am from you...
Addiction free.
What you provided was not love.
What you provided,
Was a convenience to me.
A convenience that eventually,
Faded.
After the quick and ease of preparation,
Left immediately upon its release.

You will not dishonor the divine perfections by judgments unworthy of them, provided you never judge of Him by yourself, provided you do not ascribe to the Creator the imperfections and limitations of created beings.

Promise with condition
I can move the earth
Provided I find a place to stand on.
I can carry the hill
Provided it is placed on me.
Often we make promises
With conditions as convenience.

Our strategic dialogue with China can both protect American interests and uphold our principles, provided we are honest about our differences on human rights and other issues and provided we use a mix of targeted incentives and sanctions to narrow these differences.

Assurances
I need no assurances, I am a man who is preoccupied of his own soul;
I do not doubt that from under the feet and beside the hands and
face I am cognizant of, are now looking faces I am not cognizant
of, calm and actual faces,
I do not doubt but the majesty and beauty of the world are latent in
any iota of the world,
I do not doubt I am limitless, and that the universes are limitless,
in vain I try to think how limitless,
I do not doubt that the orbs and the systems of orbs play their
swift sports through the air on purpose, and that I shall one day
be eligible to do as much as they, and more than they,
I do not doubt that temporary affairs keep on and on millions of years,
I do not doubt interiors have their interiors, and exteriors have
their exteriors, and that the eyesight has another eyesight, and
the hearing another hearing, and the voice another voice,
I do not doubt that the passionately-wept deaths of young men are
provided for, and that the deaths of young women and the
deaths of little children are provided for,
(Did you think Life was so well provided for, and Death, the purport
of all Life, is not well provided for?)
I do not doubt that wrecks at sea, no matter what the horrors of
them, no matter whose wife, child, husband, father, lover, has
gone down, are provided for, to the minutest points,
I do not doubt that whatever can possibly happen anywhere at any
time, is provided for in the inherences of things,
I do not think Life provides for all and for Time and Space, but I
believe Heavenly Death provides for all.

Too Much Is Expected
No one...
Given life to breathe,
Is born with a cold heart.
Beating with a rhythm,
That is ready to freeze.
No one...
Should be expected,
To show warmth and love.
If none has been surrounding one...
Being expressed.
Or shown to one how that's addressed.
No child learning to crawl, walk and talk.
Grows into an adult...
Prepared with maturity.
Or an accountability.
If no examples of that were ever there!
How is one expected to become aware?
Too much is expected.
From those who have been neglected.
And too much for too long goes undenied...
By one feeling insecure and desperate inside.
With no one to confide in...
From a shattering that goes on alone.
And kept condoned to grow unknown outside.

Plenty Of Shared Lip Service
Those unfamiliar with leadership,
Should not be expected
To understand it.
There are more accustomed,
To being followers.
And it can be annoying,
To hear them whining.
Bickering amongst themselves,
In footsteps from behind.
One who leads,
Hardly sleeps or properly eats.
Thinking of the whole as one entity,
And not several pieces to see pleased.
One who leads,
Had to learn to listen.
And those who have no idea what this means
Often pass judgement,
With a seeking to do it.
At every given opportunity.
Those unfamiliar with leadership,
Should not be expected.
To understand it.
What 'can' be expected from those unaware,
Is plenty of shared lip service.
And a volunteering of their mocked despair.

Love – we don’t give
In expected measure
Nor do we get
In expected measure.

Like a Welcomed Habit
You still have no clue what you are dealing with.
And from the very beginning,
I provided the evidence.
When are you going to accept?
Have I ever boosted with brash bravado?
I don't have to!
Would someone who drops clues,
Do that?
I think not!
You still have no clue what you are dealing with.
And from the very beginning,
I provided the evidence.
That's how empathetic I can be at times.
And it is perfectly fine,
Others are convinced of an ego attachment.
I'm closer to you than I am to that.
That's why I want you enjoying me,
Like a welcomed habit.

The Major Cause Of Poverty In Nigeria
The major causes of poverty
nd income inequality in
Nigeria's economy is the love
for property which make men
to be very stingy and greedy.
In furtherance to this, since God has provided for those
that is over their needs, it is
expected that such surplus
should be redistributed. But
our dominat class in Nigeria
will began to perpectuate their dominant over us and as well
as to protect their lovely
property and illegal acquired
wealth, while the less
previllege class will submit
themselve to their stream of dominance like the grain of
gold in the sand of a river nd
not thinking of how to revolt
against the action, in relation
to this, poverty has removed
the teeth of a lion and leave him unteeth. All we need is
revolution.
