I love you
Like the moon loves the dark
Between the shadows of my heart
In every life, in every world
I loved you then and love you still
Our souls are one and always will.

Unloved
From the heat of others ego,
He was burning his self respect !!
With heavy boulders on his heart
He kept prioritizing others smile !!
He was alone in the dark,
Pretending as a light for others !!
With compromised wishes,
He loved everyone with passion !!
Foolish enough to find,
His happiness in others !!
He was that one unloved kid,
That no one knew about !!

Progress
Who are we, if not the shadow image of someone we could actually be!

My creator...my God knew I couldn't stand a man suffering, so he made me suffer first. Nigeria could be better for it.

He filled the light, darkness, chaos, and silence into a jar and buried it deep somewhere. He said he would come back and find it again someday. Everything that existed inside that jar, without being able to survive amidst the existence of each other, cursed him every moment. That's how the shadows and reflections of that jar appeared inside him and etched themselves into his soul.

"I hate corruption and injustice but I also have used money to do wrong things, although for the right reasons. Trust me, my story is all about balance. I don't believe in right and wrong anymore, I only believe in justice and if you may...call it revenge. I'm the fist for the weak...for the cheated, the offended and all who can't stand up for themselves
My name is Gideon Adoke and I'm the son of the well known Billionaire, Onoroiza Adoke but they also know my other persona, the black hood. Trust me, my journey in life will blow your mind."

I Wish
There's a narrow bridge
That sways in my fears,
Cradles the devil betwixt.
It devours my soul and sneers.
A dark shadow veils its grin.
It chews on all my caprice.
Drowning in apathy I die within.
Is this what they always named peace?
No, I'm not here. This all is but dreams.
I closed my eyes way too soon.
I lay buried in my own screams.
"Open your eyes, break out your cocoon."
There, the green meadows and a lanky tree.
It sways ever so gently in the breeze.
Roots so firmly bound, yet it dances free.
Did I just float adrift and get lost in the seas?
Thinking I was finally free.
Only in close-knit harmony is peace.
Or is there a dream that still exists,
Beyond my sullied grasps? I wish.

Rage is shadow of Darkness, where tranquility is shadow of Light.

Shadows are the sequence
Of light and darkness.
Fear and weakness
Strength and boldness.
Shadows are the past occurrence
That you let pass.

Her shadows were moving on many paths at once. But she didn't exist or walk in any of them.

Taken
First they took my music
Off my 45's and 33's
Off my daddy's "Reel to Reel"
Off my magnetic tapes
They stripped it down
And exploded it
Into pixels
Then they glued it back together
But missing all it's depth
It got compressed
To be
Less
Than what it was made to be
And the organic flow
Of creation
Made magic by musicians
Was siphoned out
Strained out
Until only an imposter remained.
There is an alchemy
In music
When you create it with others
A primal
Releasing and invention
All at once.
This is true magic
The way your voice can blend
With someone else's
A perfectly timed expression
Of sounds that make other sounds that could not possibly exist
In just one soul alone-
And this is what they dismantled
The mystic manuevers
Of connection
Of joyful or mournful voices
They took away that face to face
Incarnation of pure genius
As the sounds are so perfect
That you cannot help
Bring your hand to your heart
And hold it there
Feel it there
As it wells up inside
From the cosmos
From innerspace
From somewhere unknown
But perfect
And you reach out and place your other hand on the other maker's
Chest
All at once in gratitude
For the sounds you two create
And you feel it move through
You both
In perfect coupling
In union
In inspired frenzy
And it is wild and unbridled
It is young and old as time
And sometimes it's so perfect
That you begin to cry.
This is what they took away
And I'll never forget that
As I wind my magnetic tapes
Tighter
And scotch tape broken parts
I held on to relics
Because I always knew
They would steal my magic
If it wasn't held on to.
Hold on
The music is worth
Saving
Hold on.

"It doesn't have to make sense but that's how I survive. Anger strengthens me, rage constructs the form and in all, justice frees my heart. As I said, it doesn't have to make sense, I love my black hood the most."

Find solace in the dark
Let your sin hide in its shade
Linger still, today and tomorrow
There is no room in the light for shadows

Shadows
Life doesn't run fast if we don't leave,
the shadows of the past.

Shadows of Darkness
As the shadows of darkness
Rattles the carcass
A battle will start this
INNER FUED
Having the heart is
Half of the hardest
Reacting regardless
WIN OR LOSE
Irrational harm is
Impractical garbage
The fact you don't start it
IS BIG OF YOU
Detachable parting
Impassable guarding
When they're fast & they're darting
SICK & RUDE
If they're acting real charming
It won't last till the morning
This is the last of the warning
THE INTERLUDE
Then you'll pack from the mourning
With your bags & your boarding
There's no after rewarding
IT'S THE ENDING SOON
With their masks & the torching
Don't look back it's important
Passing on foot the informants
TO BEGINNING NEW
No cracks in the fortress
Cause your backed by the source in
Non damageable forces
IT IS THROUGH

"Is my life a punishment? Was I just born to suffer internally?... just to enjoy the privileges of money and the resources it could provide? Or better yet, am I to see this punishment as my test...my purpose to make the wanted suffer as they should?"

My Shadow Man
A trap set
Unbeknownst to it's prey
A slow sort of prison
Caught in the length of a glance
Fierce and all consuming
It burns through her
Devouring her resolve
He is forever she thinks
Unraveling before him
Her fingers pressed tight to his flesh
The voluminous weight of her heart
Deep set in a fragile cavity, unheard
He is like shadow she says
Mercurial, a place void of light
Yet she is drawn
Moments spent running, racing towards him
At any moment, at any time
Caught in his shadows
Replete with broken promises
He is lost she cries
All he is falls away
Found now only in
The shadows of her mind

"To know such pain and realising I'm to live in such pain. Such pain of having no choice but to still trust in You."

Deceit
Deceit is in the air, within reach with no despair
Deceit lurks in the shadows seeking out the
Weak, showing no concern of what will be.
Misleading as it is with no intention of
Disappearing

"Still" is my favorite word and you use it so well in your posts ☺
