I can't get you out of my head!!!


Maybe I want you,
Maybe I don’t.
If there’s something about you,
To make me want you,
Maybe I might just really want you.

Trying to think it through,
But when I can’t get you out of my head,
I know I have reached the end!
There’s no maybe,
There’s just my reason  for wanting you.




They say once you know what you want in life,then you got your life all figured out.Mmmhh…whoever came up with such a line probably wasn’t thinking clearly or…they didn’t take time to factor in people like me who sometimes never know what they want. When it comes down to the little things in life, its easy to know what I  want…then along comes the heavy- duty stuff which never leaves me in peace when it comes to making a decision.

You might probably be thinking that I am such a confused wreck if I have no idea of what I want, cause   honestly I would think that way if I met someone  who had no sense to know what they wanted even in the simplest of things( to be very honest I would be  irritated!!) But before I explain myself,  you have to at least  know the real reason why I am writing this. It all started with a simple conversation that led to the hardest question  I had to face the whole of this week “WHAT DO YOU WANT?”

In my defense, I  came up with this reason of why knowing what you want doesn’t necessarily mean  having it all figured out:” The things we want in life  always have a two-side story to them,that is they either  make a lasting impression on our lives or they( i.e the things we want) quickly fade away. Not knowing what I want immediately , is just my way of taking caution  so that I don’t land myself in any situation that  leads me to more uncertainity…maybe it’s a coward act, but  I learn more from it than  always knowing what I want. I think  through what I want before I make it official that I really do want it.”
If what I want makes a lasting impression on me such that I can’t get it out of my head,then I definitely know what I want!!

The good,the bad the ugly…the beautiful years of my life!

Happy new year!!!Two weeks down the line, and I still can’t predict how my 2013 will go down. I bet that’s the exciting part about new years( except from the annoying fact that I still   keep writing down the dates as 2012). Took me a while to write my first 2013 post,mostly cause I   had a cliché   idea of writing something about fresh starts,but I won’t take that turn.New year means a lot of things not just new beginnings, it’s also about rolling with the days as they come even when everything seems to stay the same, year in year out. Above all I can’t deny the fact that am alive, who knows what could have happened and nothing makes my heart more grateful   to my God for that blessing. So my first post this year is a lyrical piece written and   dedicated to my 2012 memories and 2013 ‘s unpredictable events. Two decades,that’s how long    I waited for you… If I could wait this long,then what could   possibly go wrong? I knew so...

The Man That Made Me Believe In Impossibilities

How do I write about a man whose loud presence can’t be ignored? How do I begin to describe a man whose life should be written down in volumes of books, a man whose battles and achievements could literally make you wonder why you have never tried out that daredevil in you? A man whose blind faith and roaring spirit will leave you believing that anything is possible, as long as you just do it! I have never written down anything much about my father, mostly because words won’t do him justice and because you need to experience him to actually know who he is. He is tough, he is loud, he is sharp and witty, he never gives up and he is simply my papa. I know I will never get it right when it comes to the adjectives that could describe papa, mostly because he is more than words. He’s the man who’s taught me to live in the moment, because we can’t really trust the future. A man who’s taught me to be witty, because sometimes you have to outdo the book smarts to survive. A man who’s ta...

Don't break my heart...

From the moment i loved you, I was afraid to say these words, But deep down i could feel it,and i knew it... Don't break my heart.. Don't tear me apart... With you am happy, That's how i know am lucky.. Without you,i am without me Don't break my heart... Don't tear me apart... Even though i know you will... This is no love poem,or else i'd have poured my whole heart out in my longest post ever!!!But i know how it looks and sounds,it's simply my love poem to this beauty called life...I heard a song this morning by Gym Class Heroes "Get Your A** Back Home" not the best title to a song(i know) but this line kept haunting me all morning "this type of life didn't come with instructions" By now if you reading this and thinking ,"like duh!!who din't know that??" hold onto that thought for just a bit. This is one of the most obvious facts:The  things that life can throws at us,sometimes can...
