Mothers Day Reflections


Sunday, 15th of March was just another one of those days for me as I woke up as usual and first thing I did was to reach for my Smartphone. In this day and age, it is very understandable that for many young people and even some people from the older generation alike, the phone is their first port of call in the mornings. After silencing my alarm that woke me up, the next stop was to check my message on my instant messaging platform BBM and that was when it hit me, the day was Mother’s Day.

Art Weekend: The Phenomenon Music


There are no enough adjectives in the  English language that can describe how i feel about music. Do you ever feel something so intense that you get goosebumps just from thinking about it?  Yeah. That's how music makes me feel. I listen to it when I'm washing plates, in the shower, when I'm drawing, when I'm walking.... Everywhere and everytime. It's like my best friend. This drawing is an attempt to show the world how i feel about music. It doesn't come close to explaining how i feel, but i hope it gives you an idea. Music is a living thing to me. Keeps me sane and safe.

Cries in the Dark


Beautiful flowers blossom during spring
The birds with their sonorous voices sing
But my heart fills with hate
When I think of my dreadful state
Heavens Heavens let down thy rain
Death I patiently await thy train
The new baby’s cry fills the morning air
Funeral songs curl around my hair
Where is thy fury and wrath
None left for me to dine with or trust
Take me home on a wingless flight
I lay down my struggles and put up no fight
Do you hear my cry in the dark?
As i leave the rest of the pack
Plunging down into an abyss of desolation
As I fall with no hope of salvation

The Day I Died Part 2


Read Part One; CLICK HERE

Have you ever had that tingling feeling that you are being watched? That there is some evil lurking in the backgrounds of your shadow and that an ominous darkness was pressing, trying to take over your being and shut out the light? That was the kind of feeling I was having that day when I died for a second time. This time my sister wasn’t there to save me from its clutches so death had a field day with me. It took its time to slowly torture me like a cat playing with a mice right before it gulps it down as a snack.

Life


A lecturer once said; as soon as a child is born, the child is living or growing towards her death. And I began to ask myself, is this all what life is about? Does it mean from a starting point of a thing, we looking forward to the finish line? But ironically it is very true that as soon as something new starts, we are moving towards the end of it. So I realized that as soon as;

Episode 12 - Now That You Are Here; A Tale of Deceit and Betrayal


[Excerpt from Episode 11: Gbade’s car and clothes were gone judging from the empty space in the closet that clearly showed the space had been occupied before. Damilola wept silently as he handed her the key of the house which he had taken the initiative to lock up and Anu had to resume her duty of consoling her]. To read Episode 11 CLICK HERE

Muyiwa called her two days after the incident apologized for having lost control when he should have been more mature in handling the situation. He couldn’t see that animal treat her like garbage or hurt her anymore and he had had to react. She swallowed the tears that threatened to spill over as she replied shakily
