LOVE GAMES

Out of sight, out of mind...
Tell me what to do because am just out of this world
Pain inside
Gain is nigh
And living this kind of life is proving too hard

Baby, I want you back again
I don't want to keep playing these love games
When I get who I think is better than you, who I want..
Then thoughts about you suffice
And I try to act like am in the relationship but I can't
We fight, we break up

Am completely broken into thousand pieces
This game is to end baby, I chuck my deuces
I need you regardless and am jumping out of this circle
Let your love rain and fulfill my emptiness,
deep within that has left me dried off

Am confused in this rat chase, helter-skelter in dumbness
Yes, this was to make you jealous
Feel bad that you ain't having me there-infact
The horror and mess am in was to be all yours
Boomerang! It's coming back double unexpected up to here
I play and score in my own post, hurting myself

We should've stayed together
Built this ark and wait in it for any kind of weather I messed it,
playing games and playing games and playing games!
It's like am facing my death sentence
You are the judge, looking down and passing it for me to be penalised
I need you back here to take up my defence..
or else I will forever die in regret playing this goddamn love games!!

CALLS FOR LOVE

I don't know what I want
One voice tells me it is, another outright, it's not!
I try as much to avoid mistakes-cautious
But I end up on the wrong run
Chasing illusions that evaporate off my mind
Are you the one?

Of course you are..
But why does it silhouette 'hurt' in my eyes?
All am hearing are lies
Lies that heal my past wounds and scars
How nice they sound in my ear drums
However, are they going to really last?

Of course they should..
So why do I want it this rush?
Is it going to evade us?
Can we take it slow, but does it deserve this?
I just can't wait for it to hit-off
I'm desperate for love and I fear it's rip-off
Is it going to also leave like the last time?

Of course it will..
Leaving me with bitterness caving in
Empty and desolete
Is it worth the risk?

Of course it isn't!
I did it before and I don't want to repeat it
My heart has had enough;
It has been played with, cut, wounded and burst
And made me cold, numb to trust- to love
Now I just look, and stare at calls for love

DREAMS MONEY CAN'T BUY

She curled up at the corner of her already freezing bedroom floor

Crying all day till it  had made her too weak to even move

She was left with strength enough  to only clusp strongly at her wet scarf

You would think it’s the only thing that she had

But running in her mind

Were the dreaded thoughts of yesterday night

She has had so many flashbacks

And still she can’t figure out why it had to be her

Was the world so cruel to her like this?

Or was misfortune having a hard time keeping up with her pureness?

It couldn’t turn out like this

She cursed so many times the day she was born

She pitied the woman who ever had pride in her

How was she going to react when she hears this…

Would she still have the same regards she placed on her?

And how Daddy secured her as his future

He calls her Daddy’s girl for the soft spot for her

Is this condition going to change that?

She remembers him telling her to take care

And even offered to pick her up later

But she didn’t want that, and now she regrets why

 What about the man who did it to her

Doesn’t guilt ever have enough strength to tear him up?

Would he ever wake up one day and bump into justice’ hands?

She only hoped for it

Where she was right now, nothing could ever make her clean

She oftenly wished she could buy it

But money can’t buy such dreams
