(POEM) COULD THIS BE LUST?

By Olabode Emmanuel Olawumi

I start the race in my mind;

A race with no beginning and no end,

A race of the most sensuous proportions,

A race between the heart and the body

I ask myself;

What is it I am running from?

Lo and behold it is not far-fetched.

There she comes,

Making my heart pound

I said it will never happen again

Alas! Here it comes all over again.

The smile on her face

Makes my heart glow

Her dimples – the kind that robs one of sight

Then she comes close,

Her body tucks into mine,

My hand clasps the small of her back,

Hers claps mine.

Behold, damnation is at hand!

I feel it;

My forehead gently grazing hers,

Her nose passionately gluing to mine,

My lips, yes, my lips; hungrily salvaging hers

I feel her breast heavily on my chest,

My ever alert manhood rears his well-shaped head,

My hands don’t need Google maps,

They can find their way around her curves.

The destination lies beneath her undergarments.

Mon Dieu, how she moans!

She whispers the green light into my ears,

I take the journey further,

Her blouse drops on the floor.

Who'll show my fingers the way?

'Cos they’re lost in her pubic palace;

Perhaps, my hands do need that map,

Yet, she continues to ask for more

Even as she dominates right under my pants

How many more miles can I go?

What'll fuel this desire into burning passion?

We promised to take it slow, didn’t we?

But, my dearest, it seems we just slowly climbed higher....

Higher into realms of boundless pleasure,

Realms of our wildest dreams,

Realms in our own world of forms;

Ma Cherie, do I really love you?

Or could this be lust?

MY PAIN (2)

It was a knock on my door that brought me back to life. Holy shit!

So, I've been dreaming. I checked my wrist-watch and it was just a
few minutes after seven p.m. As i rose up to check who was at my door,
i found my best friend and my girl. They told me they had come to
pick me up for a party scheduled for that night where we'll meet the
girl my best friend had an eye for. Whoa! What a coincidence.

As we walked down to the event venue, thoughts of my recent dream raced
through my mind. Questions fueled in my heart. "Can this really happen?"
I asked myself. I didn't search through my mind for so long before i found
my answer: "my best friend can't do that and my girl friend loves me so
much that she won't do that - GOD HELP HER, including me".I came to conclusion
that it is a dream that can never come true! Yet, i thought of how disappointed
we all feel when we are cheated on by our spouse or loved ones. It's really
heart-breaking you know? It really hurts because we feel that person has given
out a part of us that is meant to be just for the two of us.


Come to think of it, we all are boyfriends and girlfriends respectively to
God. How come do we find it so easy to cheat on him without feeling sorry or
caring about how he feels? We've got a part of us he treasures so much. It's
our body but he prefers to call it his temple. Some of us have so much defiled
it that it worth less than a dime through fornication and adultery. Ask yourself
this question: "How will i feel if i catch my spouse or partner with someone
else on my matrimonial bed" or "How will i feel if i find out that my boyfriend
or girlfriend sleeps around with other people" The way you feel in both cases is
how God feels when we fornicate or commit adultery. He is not happy with it.
He wants us to stop it. This is not my pain but GOD'S PAIN. FLEE FORNICATION
AND ADULTERY!
