Rebranded Little Pieces

 

I've never written to you, but dear crush

I wonder why you bear that noun, is it coz you're meant to crash?

Your description betrays you, n I don't wanna call you such

It's like you're a crush coz you crash; so can I spare you the scratch

For when you crash, I might not have your security patch

Look, I like you that much 

And we're already in the last days of March

So, let me address you properly in the context of the match

Than crush, I say Dear mahope

At least that sounds like Hebrews 11:1 in plural

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for

I don't crush for you, I hope for you, I believe for you 

You ignite my faith to substantiate you

Hmm isn't it interesting that even my faith sees you?

You're a serious matter; Romans 5:5 talks of you that you don’t put to shame

And I hope you're the hope of this fame

I hope my substance and evidence of you is not lame

Yesterday you were what I hoped for

Today they've labelled it a choose day, and I am glad you haven’t disclosed your choice yet

Coz before you say yes, there's something about me I mean you to get

Am a gentleman, I'll expect you to treat me like one

My heart is flesh like yours; caress it softly

Silence is not my vocabulary; am looking forward to daily conversations

I listen more and talk less

I hope you won't mind me loving listening to you as I adore your face

You will not always be right

I will stand to correct you, I hope you won't take it as a fight

You won't call another man than me, your bestie; that's disrespect

No 2 Kings are in the same kingdom

Honour my presence and I won't fight 

Respect me and I will shine for you

Recognise my efforts, and I'll build more muscle for you

I don't mean to scare you, but I'll fail you when I differ from your expectation

Truly I will love you😊 but how will you know when am a hidden explanation?

Poetic conversation 

By: Violet Kamanga & Vinnie Oreal

They call it a crush day

But I don't wanna break your heart

I want to be "that" woman

'Your' woman who will bring peace and hope like lilies in a garden

A vessel of peace and your only home

The "one" whom only your eyes can see

So shut your heart from all beauty that passes by

Because I get hurt when your eyes find pleasure in another 

I am silent. I don't speak

But my heart gets loud that my ears break from the noise of the pain

Cover me under the embrace of your love

Quietly, assure me everyday that I am enough

Convince me to lean on to your grooming 

A woman built out of the limb of her man

Sometimes you never know what you're missing until you have it

Till  now my words don't paint a better picture

It won't be until you feature

Give it a taste, and I promise you won't write alone the test

You're not enough because of my assurance 

It's your enough first that assures me of your worthiness

I've always been blind till I saw you

So don't worry, nobody has access to my eyes

Soothe your heart, ascend into the skies

You won't hurt

Insecurities, I am afraid

A love practiced in darkness

Blinded not to remember the sweet memories with you

A test only to be hurt with your lovely taste

A sweet portion which is poison to my veins

"Let's do this together" only to be cheated by your words

You claim to now see the light

Yet it's a clearance to the path to test all

Yes. He who finds a wife finds a "good thing"

But what about the good thing??

You have the Assurance that I am enough because I'm a good thing

But who are you??

A full package full of good and bad??

Reveal yourself and let me see who u are

Insecurities, you might have been hurt before

You might have been lied to of what you thought was more

But am glad🙂that in it all, you've remained beautiful 

Despite all, you've remained fruitful

I mean wow, I adore your composure

Still, now you're afraid of another exposure

But what can I do when that gives me more reason to stand before you

And say am trusting my love can cast out your fears

So who am I? Am fire too yes

To keep you warm, not to burn you

You're a good thing, true, am not spared from desiring you

If you're a good thing, then am he who is alone

Am he who will leave his father and mother for you

Am he who will shield you from sparrows

Am he who will be content with you seasons come and go

You wanna see who I am, then look at me

Don't be shy, withhold not your eyes on me

And I will be uncovered for you

Am he who your eyes have not seen

Am he who your mind didn't think of

I can be your new piece...

I was looking up the sky, I saw so many stars up there

But there was one star to my attention hanging rare

It was shining brighter and bigger than the rest

It got to me, feeling a gentle breeze run through my chest

I smiled to myself, saying, that one star resembled you🙂

That's how I saw you out of the many, and

That's how you got to be what I wanted to understand

From afar, I chose you, but it wasn't easy saying it to you

I mean, you stood out alone

I wondered if it's me you're shining for and wanted along

In the midst, it's your courage that amplified my voice

I chose you, but you chose my choice

Seeing my grannies fuelled my desire to see us too grow old

I do. I do want to see us grow close into each other come warmth or cold

At that time, I wanna hold you, look in your eyes, and say, "Well done best friend🫂

I couldn't be what we are, you’ve made us the best trend

Not always have I been the best, still, you never left my side

You never indeed let me wander alone, close you, you've kept me tied

Sometimes, I wanted to be alone, but you understood that's when I needed you more

You knew well my basket needed a refill, and you had to be my shopping mall

Am sorry I made you angry sometimes, yet you remained my pride

You deserve the medal, you've been my lived plight 

Thank for holding my hand when no one could

We built a house, but you've been the home I could run to..."

Someday, I want to say these words and more before you❤️

Awww🙃look at that

Your arms on the coverage of my heart

"Guard your heart with all diligence..."

Not everything is meant to get to your heart

Likewise, I got places reserved only for your touch

Your arms are resting on one of such

I got words meant to be heard and said only by you

I got names meant to be used only on and by you

If you be the one, let me be one too to you who nobody has ever seen

I got locked doors nobody opened, waiting for you

For some reason, I find it thrilling that to you, am tall

No, I don't mean when you stand next to me, you are like a troll😂

But that we make lovely thunder like Jane and Thor

It blesses me that to wrap your arms around my neck; 

You do, even if it means being on your toes

It sounds nice when you tilt your head up to face me against all foes

I like it to face down just to see how your liberated face goes

I mean, I love it when we swim in our own laws

When we begin to set highs in our own lows

When then you rest your head under my jaw

And you let me feel the alignment of your hair

Leaving me in agreement that yes, you got it all fair

So I dare to care for us no matter the lair

For if this was Photoshop, you're my favourite layer...

I've heard and read: it's easy to feel in love

It's easy to say I love you; but it's a journey to live the love you've confessed

Well, but I think nothing is easy when love is the matter professed

It's not easy to feel in love; it's not easy to say I love you, and nor is it easy to live it

These are decisions that bear weight at their existence, believe it

The same feel of love got some excited, hopeful, and alive

The same feel of love got some anxious, stressed, and uncertain

How can you call it easy then?

I love you, got some a place of belonging 

The same I love you, to some it remains an unknown tongue to the ones they're longing

How do you call that easy?

Well, God said He's love; if God is big, so is love

If God is breathing, so is love

If God is powerful, so is love

If God is faithful, so is love

If God is marvelous, so is love

If God is dangerous, so is love

How do you call easy what God exists in?

Love never fails. Why does our love fail though?

Is it that it's never love what we call love that we fall?

Well, it's always love in the first place

But we miss it the time we're releasing it into the race

You see, you cannot live what you don't know

I mean, when you are not fully aware of your confession, 

It's an easy frustration when you encounter that which you did not see in your confession

What we confess sometimes doesn't directly capture what we face

Taken by surprise, you didn't sign up for this but there you see it

Frustrated and likely, you might leave it rather than live it

But love never leaves; we leave it

Love never fails; we fail it

Love is a calling of responsibility; get frustrated but still see a reason to walk on

I love you🙂alphabetically proven, I and you are far apart

It's love that bridges I and you together🫂You can't call that easy...

If I was asked of one thing I like about you

It would be the peace I get with you

I am happier feeling your emotion of comfort with me

You ain't concealed, you're an open book before me

You show me the beautiful you

When you're ugly, you're not ashamed letting me see that too

You're smart, reserved and careful how you carry yourself around

But you don't withhold the crazy you when am around

You're strong, but you got me exceptional to see you when you're low

You got the prettiest smiling smile, but you have my shoulder when you cry

What is it that you keep to yourself sidelining me?

It's your trust in me that gets me

How you find a friend in me who you can share your all

I feel peace that you feel peace around me🥲

Am called to lead you

And that's where it scares me

I don't wanna confuse leading you with leading me

Leadership is because there's following

Forbid me to lead you if I can't follow

I will follow the lead with you

I will take the first step; I'll then hold your hand and walk the step with you

I will forgive first and tell you to forgive

I will give first before I seek to receive

I will trust you and tell you to trust me

I will submit first before I ask you to submit

I will be content with you and ask you to see me as your full set

I will sacrifice before I ask you to give it your all

I will speak to you before I hate silence

I will open up before I dislike the bound you

I won't ask you to follow me; I'll come to you and follow me with you
