To Love is to Risk

The struggle was a poem I wrote myself and i loved it. But i must admit I’m not the best of poets yet. We’re learning small small. So i have this friend and sweetheart who is really a great writer. All attempts to get him to blog so others can read his master pieces have proved futile. Oh but we are gaining grounds. Veeery soon you’ll see him representing. Ok so he is a “hopeless” romantic so most of his poems are about love. So enjoy the one below drop comments like and share. Happy reading.”

scale

Descend from that height my dear one for its cumbersome to know you, my heart can only beat but not stretch.

From that height your smile is shrouded by the shadow of my face looking up to you. It would be a quagmire for my thoughts to sue if that smile were genuine.
Do not keep me longing for you thinking you are expensive for that garment you wear is not in the mind of all men, some enjoy the marathon you make them race because they are players, never feel so important for your worth is in the eye of not all men.
I would go if you do not love me back, if you do and you do not paint a clear picture then you are about to lose me because to keep me waiting for a glorious answer is silly, it’s not worth it when I love you genuinely.
Well, I understand you too, you cannot jump quickly like a rabbit in the bush to say you love me too. You need to know me more but even if it’s after a thousand years you agree I would still kill you if I want to. Never think my patience was pure.

To love is risk but to love me is truth of love, a painless romantic journey your soul would feel gratified forever. My love for you could even make you lose your memory but I’m not rootless to love you that much.
I’m not saying I’m not loving you with my all yet I do say it because you are human and you could change and when my love for you becomes wicked you could end up on the streets mad and singing my name that I’m the best in the world yet in your insane state.
Despite love is wicked, despite you need to know me like that white attire you would love to adorn your self with on our day of matrimony and despite all and everything.
If you love me do not keep me waiting for you can risk loving me to get to know me, risk trusting me, baby take all the risk in the world for we are human. A hundred years of knowing me doesn’t guarantee a peaceful and sweet relationship.

I just had to reblog this. We’ve moved from feeling better in products produced abroad to body parts. Please natural hair is nice and very corporate.

I went to work yesterday with my hair in its God state. Yup in its natural state. I was feeling good, I was bold, I was embracing Africana.

My boss sees me and says , “I don’t like your hair like this” well I ignored and he added; “it’s unprofessional”. Lol all the lights in my halo shaped hair were on fire. Unprofessional? Really?  Bear in mind,this is Ghana our beloved country,not a white man’s land.

What is our idea of “professional hair”?  When we add chemicals to it and we flat iron it till we get it to be straight like what our masters have? Don’t get me wrong, I’ve nothing against relaxed hair, I may change this look soon. I will change it because I want to, because I feel like having flat hair, because it feels really silky when you touch it lol , but not because…
