Ode to Harmattan
Twice as much of everything as and when it becomes a daily routine,Twice as much lotion, until your skin is sore,Twice as much cleaning, because, well, dust,As Vaseline again makes a red carpet appearance,I make my floors a skating rink,And please, don’t forget your water, parched throats are no joke, Harmattan, those cold, short, heart-attack…… Continue reading Ode to Harmattan
Conscious
When I started to realize,My clothes don’t fit,My clothes hang,My clothes are too short,My clothes are too long,When I started to be conscious and hyper aware,How do I go back to feeling that way,Too little too late I guess,I took my innocence for granted,And loaded rounds of insecurity into the gun I hid behind my…… Continue reading Conscious
Tried and doesn’t feel like True
If I was to ever wait for a perfect time to create something out of what God has freely given me, I’d wait my whole life. And there she was, happy and broken all at the same time, little did she know that God was a Potter moulding his clay, in that moment nothing felt…… Continue reading Tried and doesn’t feel like True

UNTITLED
My life inexperience and consequential ignorance makes it impossible to speak on certain matters but in the words of Richard Ayoade, I’m trying to reach a word count here. Also, nobody wants to hear the thoughts of a brooding twenty-something year old who is still experiencing teen angst, as hard as it may be to…… Continue reading UNTITLED
What Motivates You?
There is something that urges us to go about our daily lives the way we do. Waking up early is never fun, working on the weekend is pain. Life in itself can be very uncomfortable sometimes, but, we keep moving and pushing because of what motivates us. Motivation is not the same for everyone.
