I hope you do like it. **** Well, I haven’t always been a Valentine’s freak but then, I guess that changes when you have a babe, yeah? Anyway, sinceContinue reading "HOW I SPENT MY LAST VALENTINE."
2021 In Retrospection.
No one can love me as you doSo why would I want to substitute? For you, the beginning of the year always stands out as the most reflective time of the year. The time to correct wrongs, to write out a list of would-soon-forget resolutions, the time to evaluate and resolve. To map out plansContinue reading "2021 In Retrospection."
Lost Places.
I love the graveyard so much. There's something so serene about it that is so much distinct to the deafening noises in my life. Talk about the neighbor's generator, the daily traffic, the squeak and squeal of unsupervised toddlers, my ever-loudening heart. You don't find these in the graveyard. Here, it's just bones and myContinue reading "Lost Places."

He Who First Loved Us.
Running had been Tola's favorite sport in elementary school. Several awards and medals of various colors of the tournaments she won were littered around in her parent's study back in their family house in Lagos. But lately, Tola was done running. It seems to her that the older she grew, the bigger the things sheContinue reading "He Who First Loved Us."
HOW LONG?
It was midday in Akure. The city bustled with commercial traders going about their businesses. Vehicles moving to various destinations. School children marching down the roadway in already rough uniforms. Nobody noticed the black Sedan Jeep following Barrister Paul. Nobody saw the Jeep take the same turn that the Barrister took to get to hisContinue reading "HOW LONG?"

The Believer And Depression.
I had a rude awakening sometimes last month on believers and depression. I know it may sound a bit hard for Christians to come out and acclaim that they are going through depressing situations, because scripturally speaking, the joy of the Lord is our strength. For someone who likes to have a plan of whatContinue reading "The Believer And Depression."
Who Am I?
"Mirror mirror on the wall Who's the ugliest of them all? Mirror mirror on the wall Surely, the fattest amongst them" And then the mocking laughter of skinny high school girls followed. That was the chorus the legion of girls gathered at the school's bathroom would always sing whenever I stood by the mirror staringContinue reading "Who Am I?"
