The Writeventures of Emaleecious

I  was born into a large family. Many uncles and aunts. I am privileged to know one great man among them all. He had a heart of Gold. A heart large enough to carry the world and still have space left over. It is unfortunate that I would write this after your passing, but i have learned now that nothing is ever truly appreciated until it goes away. Now I know that every moment on earth is precious, as life is a clock ...every ticking second counts. I want every second I spend on earth to be meaningful. To be used in a positive way. I want to put smiles on peoples faces.  I want to banter with words. I want to reach out to people. I want to give others a chance. I want people to make their own decisions, have their choices.  I want to learn to give as I have received. I want to be readily available to people who genuinely require my help. I want to make right decisions. I want to remember people. I want to live ecah day well knowing that tomorrow will ...

hey! wnt to make this my own world...savvy? lol! welcome to my spot!

Finally, I am at peace. All the demons of fear that plagued me have fled. Huge, dark terrible feelings of fear, anxiety and depression... The feeling of fangs lightly crawling down my back...trailing a path down my arms...climbing up my stomach... Every inch of my flesh is covered in goose bumps... Over and over again without respite. I shudder now as I think of it... The daily torment by the unknown. I don't even remember which was worse...the thought of it coming at any time or the actual feeling of The fangs on my flesh. If it ever tore my skin, it may have been better as I would have had an evidence to show to the world. Alas...it was my torment. A ritual I went through every single day. If it had a form, I may have been less fearful. But it came like a shadow...no definite form... just a feeling. Daily like clockwork, only not at scheduled times. It made me live in fear always as i never knew when next it would come calling. ...the feel of... I shut my eyes as tight as I can....

Like a teenager emerging from the shades of childhood Africa sprung like a paragon of beauty She grew as  a child towards sainthood Her every move chaste, summarized as purity Black gold cascades like well oiled hair Facial features sharply chiseled out through self development Her supple shoulders moulded into submission to constituted authority and heirs Her slender hands constantly improving all that is set before her Her Scholars, sprouting, as promising as young firm breasts Her waist as a swans neck, void of corruption and evil schemes Undulating hips, as big as her dreams and aspirations Her steady long legs, the rock upon which her education and knowledge is based Like a young maiden introduced at her first ball, she stands in amazement at the scenario before her All like minded young rakes flock around her while older men beat their chests in display of superiority, strength and ownership The older men grab at her and begin to lay claim to her sweetness, filling her mind w...

Day unto day Night unto night Humbly will i come to your throne For the new mercies and grace which you bestow upon me Your love for me is like a rose in the mornings It is as caressing as the Ocean's breeze in the heat of the day Like the sun after a storm in the chill of the night Like a young eagle spreading its wings, you teach me to soar in your ways Like the first rains on the dry earth, you send me forth like an ambassador Your beauty radiates in me and makes me glow like the sun Your joy envelopes me and bursts forth like a bubbling spring within me I stand in awe of your majesty. At night, your gentle whispers of comfort calms me to sleep.

You'll always be my friend Although right now we seem more like fiends I agree things are not the same You are as a roan Set free, allowed to roam I'll wait till you return home Though it may take ages I promise there will be no cages A Chinese saying goes- set a bird free, if its yours it will surely return If you do, I'll know you belong If you don't, Adieu No hard feelings. I will never forget you.

He calls out she stops dead in her tracks He calls again She pauses, listens and turns Looks but can't see She continues her train He calls out once more. There is no mistaking she has heard. She turns South, East, West But she doesnt see him She becomes determined, keeps searching, frantically She stumbles, slips, and begins to fall Just when her back should have touched the floor, He stretches out His hand and picks her up, sets her on her feet. Her cheecks become full circles as she smiles in recognition. She tries to go closer but is prevented by a barrier. He is radiating. His garments are shimering. While she, her garments hang shabily around her like rags. She hesitates. He watches, waiting. At that moment, all is forgotten She runs to his embrace He lifts her up. Her garments undergo a transformation Royal purple and a crown of Gold to perfect it. He smiles at her, purity is her name. He stretches out His hand towards her, and takes her home.

The thunder roars Lightening flashes The clouds rumble The sky remains midnight black The trees and plants bend over as if in submission, begging to be spared Everyone is confused, as the sky was once blue The rains begin to fall in a heavy downpour Engulfing everything they come across as if in a fury Drenching the entire human race And suddenly, it ceases Like there never was a drizzle Suddenly the black sky turns blue The whites begin to seep in too, forming a cool color The trees stand straighter The grass is fresher, greener The sand looks cleaner The birds are very thrilled and sing in their best voices The gutters gurgle with pleasure as the roads are swollen The atmosphere is beautiful The humans are amazed at the sudden change.

I once thought the cold war only occurred between nations - USSR & USA I once thought such a great event would never repeat itself I once thought human beings had learnt a great lesson I once thought I knew the history until now I thought wrong This time it has reoccurred. This time between people and not nations Between neighbours and not towns Between roommates and not neighbours - The cold war - Giving silent treatment to one's neighbour like he doesn't exist The anger and hatred far spent, all energies burnt All that is left is the icy cold treatment. Shouts and cries are much more pleasant to bear than this silence The silence is deafening, breaking down old walls of cement and reinforcing walls of concrete in its place. With the determined resolve o make it unbreakable.  - The cold war - Despite its threat, they still have the nerve to smile Putting on different masks for different occasions Knowing that one day, they'll end up bursting, but caring nonetheless Eac...
