The birth of a General…

The soundless breeze strokes the bloodied skin as veins bulged out showing the existence of the ever pulsing heart. In the midst of clouded confusion and raging sounds of battle cries and the clashing of steel an unfamiliar calm, settles upon him.
Something, didn’t feel right, it felt scary calm for him. Time slowed down for him and barely any sound reached him. It felt like cotton filled his ears. In front of him, his current opponent looked like a moving statue that was filled with nothing but blood lust. But slow he was. No matter how he looked around, nothing changed, he no longer felt fear, he was calm. And with that, his sight was born anew. He saw it all, a bigger picture. It was no longer just himself anymore. He saw the enemy’s movement and their own. Patterns and secrets of battle, laid on his feet. He was no commander, but he knew for them to survive, tables had to turn. Him alone will not be enough. But it wasn’t the time to be worried about that, only what was in front of him mattered. Obediently, he steeled his heart and let his body follow his instincts. There seemed to be a flow, a current that he sunk in as he faced his opponents. His fatigue, fear… All of it was gone. And a fire was lit, a small one but a fire non the less, compared to the size of the battlefield. Around him, in the small area of his battalion, his allies felt the change when they laid their eyes on him. He was pushing the enemies back. His ferocity brought fear upon those in front of him.

His energy, lit the fires in the hearts of the warriors, and now came the time of this wild fire to spread in the dense forest of flesh and clashing steel. In earnest, together, they endeavoured to farther their stand in the battlefield. This time the tides of war favoured them. These men, these warriors believe in strength, and when they recognise it, they will follow. And as they saw the man, they knew he would be the kind to even wage war on hell and never waver

Alone.

Hi guys, sorry about the title, it’s not really about being alone but being in need of more than just… Food for thought, have you ever wondered how the first man, human, animal, being, had their first adventure? To discover beyond the familiarity of their current circumstances of life. My take of it is *need*, need for more than those mental walls built up by fear, fear of something new and ununderstable. However, most of the time fear is trampled over by a thing called curiosity. Questions like “what am I? Why am I here and is there another like me?” Solitary is good really, a time of reflection and self. However, something like companionship, or at the very least, the knowledge of an existence of another being somewhere is always reassuring. Now we might not see it but spend a couple of weeks without seeing or hearing anything move, breath, it might drive you to insanity or even worse. You’ve watched the news read the papers, you’ve seen it all, suicide is a result of basically a being not able to connect. I bet if I was to get researching, I’ll find some animals forfeited there lives and wasting away because of simply being alone. Can you believe that hundreds of thousands of lightyears NASA has searched and yet earth seems to be the only one with life, am not say the planets can’t hold life. Am saying we don’t have neighbours. And i don’t know about you but when my cooking oil has finished, at 10pm at night… Well thank the universe I have a neighbour. It’s kinda lonely, am I right? You tell me.

Like and comment, I want to get your thoughts on this #earth

The Flight Experience

Have you ever experienced flight, it’s not like you haven’t flown before. Am simply asking, have you ever experienced flight before? Several hundred feet above sea level. Where moisture gathers to make that rain that we all need despite sheltering ourselves from it. Except up there, the clouds actually look like heaven. An infinite horizon of sun kissed flooring of clouds at the stratosphere. The true sight of the gates that take you to a blissful paradise. With light orange rays of the sun set gracing the view that has forever been desired by all, a sight that shames even the statue of liberty because nothing says liberty, like freedom. We were so jealous that the birds get to see that everyday we had to get us a piece of that action. I advice you all readers, fly at least once.

Note:if you have any constructive criticism please do comment.

The girl of my dreams? Tell me… 

​Like a wrecking ball it hits me so hard I feel  my rib cage would give in.

She is the girl of my dreams, that’s why this hurts far worse than a bullet to the gut

You see, I love her but  she don’t love me, 

I’d lie and say I understand, that we all get cold feet 

Wants me to be her friend, thats like the biggest disgrace to any man who poured his heart out and got a sucker punch. 

Then you hear from your friend saying “nigga you know how you sound right now, you are my man I would think that you are punk right now, 

You got the world going on  for you, why you gotta fool so much ” 

Funny though, I thought i was perfect for her, 

I suppose it wasn’t in the way I thought, 

I didn’t mean the same to her.

Am yet to think about whether I should follow the scripts advice and be the man who can’t be moved
