starting again + rushes (poetry)

So I have no excuse for not writing...for not doing anything on this blog...no excuse...but hey, we can start again...from anywhere ba?, yes we can...in fact, yes we fit!!! Its been a long time since I did a write up and Harry's blog was a wake up call...totally awesome...you can check it out here. Lets start with this, I may have shared this before...but I also have given this out...so with special permission...the first half of this:

RUSHES: the burdens we share

MALE:

The beauty that shines so bright
more than the diamonds in the sky
the beauty that the Bible says would fade
but yet yours is also within

Like an onion bulb is peeled
so with precision do I unfold my love for you
did she really mean the yes she said
was she just simply saying yes to impress

how do I make my mandate known?
how do I relate my vision clearly?
how do I Ecc 9:9 with her? (***ehh, in simple English...how do I live happily with her?)
how do I let the others forget her hand?

how do I buy the things I need for her?
how do I flood her with only me?
how do I sit down and sing to her?
how do I keep your temple for myself despite your hotness?

by the way...how did I even speak to you?
how do I let you know that I'm serious?
how long do I stay with you-forever?
how do I overcome the instance if I'm rejected?

but yet how do I feel when you say yes
how do I forget all the sweet trouble you put me through
how do I regain the time lost when you held my heart at first
how do I let you know its...forever!

Hmm…so I’ld no longer be listed as in a relationship on fb…it is well oh! The thought of the news spreading all over twitter has been in my head. The ‘eyah’s ‘ I would receive has been making me shake…but mehn! I’ld rather stand for God. I had to tell my dad about it…dunno if his parents were informed as his mum still called me some days ago. Thank God dad wasn’t furious as I expected. He just said ‘the Lord will work it out for your good!’ Amen oh! Tope and Toye were (and are) a great support and so was mum. (and is...love this woman!) Everyone seems to be saying it is well …dunno if that’s a new viral word! It sure would be well sha. ...................................................... [ eyah's: aww's or sorry]

"if you love me you'll wait for me!" Those sweet words pierced through my heart and vented out of my mouth. How could he say such a thing? How could he possibly mean it?...no! ....................................................................................... "...if you love me you'll wait for me!" Those words forced out of my mouth, I didn't know what else to say but sure enough even in this pain I knew that I was doing the right thing. How could he say such a thing when he knew I genuinely loved him?...before marriage? Never...but I didn't want to loose him. "Tolu but how could you say you love me but yet hide one thing from me?" he said. "Felix how can you say you love me yet you keep me away from the altar?" Now that sounded sarcastic but I was serious....dead serious. "So you think this is a joke right, I'm not refusing to marry you, of course I know what the word says, I know what tradition says but just once...

Hi people...trust your week has started with great smiles. I'm sorry there would be a hold on the developing story (or rather there has been a hold on the story). This week, I'm putting up an entry that is poetry. Its written by a medical doctor by name Ekundayo Otuyelu. I'ld love you to read it and not copy it...if lifting is needed please contact me so I can contact him. Thank you and have a wonderful week in Jesus name, Amen! Sickle Cell: A Prenatal Diagnosis. On the darkest night, when even the sputtering flame of the meanest candle is denied me, I will still cling to my memory of today. I have tended the dying, prayed with men and women hopelessly clinging to whatever shreds of life are left, and all of it has stirred my soul. But how different it is to celebrate life at its beginning. To hold a wailing infant in my arms, celebrate a first cry which brings joy, to marry the dream of two into one dream, one life, one heart. Such a thing I did today, The woman was lov...
