Poem About Patience

Poem About Patience

Little seeds sleep deep below, Waiting for their chance to grow. They don't rush, they just stay still, Till sun and rain their promise is fulfilled. . A tiny bud, a leaf so green, Not everything is quickly seen. The river flows, it takes its way, Not all at once, but day by day. When we can wait, and not quite fuss, A quiet strength will grow in us. No need to hurry, push, or fight, Just trust that things will turn out right. The finest fruit needs time to sweet, A gentle heart makes life co...

WHAT I SEE

What I see, But it isn't it. It's my very own reflection as within. Yet, I know it not. It's my very thoughts that I saw, The very reflexes of my mental state. My Will,the indwelling self is at war with me. Through people, environment... When am at peace, harmony It all seems without. When am at war, chaos... within It all seems without. I think, how evil, good, lovely...is And it all seems. My very self act out to confront. All I saw in return, chaos. All I see, is nothing but all that i...

When FEAR Is Around
Miss Teensy

When FEAR Is Around

In shadows creep the whispers low, A chill that wraps the heart in woe. When fear is around, the light may fade, Yet courage blooms where doubts invade. With trembling hands and racing heart, The strength within will play its part. For every shadow, a spark will found, In darkest nights, hope can astound. So breathe in deep, let worries flee, When fear is around, let courage be. #poetry #Nircle #Nirclefeeds #Hellonircle #Neighbors

WHAT I THINK

What I think, It's what I see. And What I see Soon becomes my thinking. The world is to everyone of his individual perception, And men, but a reflex of their mental state. As He thinketh in his heart, So is he. Men are but the product of their very own thoughts. As within, So without. #poetry #My2025onnircle #nircleblogpost #hellonircle #neighbour #poetrychapbook #nirclepoetrycommunity #notes #newsfeeds #nirclestories #storyteller #quoteoftheday #followme @philismpoems

Give me Children lest I die

The voice of sorrow with melancholic thoughts Wearied eyes of tears that refused to dry Troubled body, spirit and soul, shouts 'Give me children lest I die!' Speak to my womb and it'll come alive Like You commanded and the bones arose Touch my soul and my spirit shall thrive Give me children lest I die! My world's a shame without their cry The home a battle when the desire is high Peace of mind forlorn when the cot is dry Give me children lest I die! I'm an outcast among my own My...

Vengeance

Do you feel the void? The one you are about to create in your heart as you kill me There was not a single tear in her eye Not a trace of fear in her face Instead a small smile played on her lips as she anticipated the pain Blood sputterred from the hole the bullet made in her chest She touched the spot tentatively, hands trembling "Nice shot" She dropped to her knees and smiled again; this time her eyes darkened, vengeance was complete "MURDERER" The words hung heavy in the air and scream...

Black

Black is a color. A color with deep meaning for some. Black is a color. For some it meant power. Another Sorrow. And yet another grieving. Still more will say violence. And another not for God. Black is darkness. How boring in black. A good mood is always a fight in black. If we could see it as a color and not attach meaning to it! #poetry #Nircle #Nirclefeeds #Hellonircle #Neighbors

Oyewale Toluwanimi was the brightest soul I had ever walked beside. Our steps once matched, our days intertwined— until, without warning, the thread between us began to loosen. One afternoon, I understood why: she was leaving town. I wept. My mother pulled me close, her arms a quiet shelter, and told me to be well. Her words carried something I could not yet name. Grief lingered in the corners of my days. But time kept reshaping me. My mother urged me to hold on to joy, and only later di...

The Girl Who Walked Soft but Wrote Loud

I walk like a whisper Because thunder is tired. Because girls like me Aren’t taught to rattle rooms, We’re taught to carry them quietly. I smile like tradition stitched into lace Pretty, polite, and padded But don’t be fooled Every curve of that smile Is a story I haven't told you yet. They say, "Speak up." But they don’t know That my silence is fluent In truth. I don’t raise my voice. I raise the standard. In soft pink. In loud pens. In thoughts that strike deeper Than screams eve...

POEM; Out of the Blank Space

I stared into blank space, I couldn’t help but reminisce— Every moment I was hurt, Every struggle I had fought. I never believed I’d still be here, But here I am—caught up in it all. Still, I made a promise to myself: No one else should feel this way. This depression I had to climb out of— I fought like hell to breathe again. But now, it returns like a shadow, And once more, I search for a way out. These feelings of not being enough... They weigh heavy, And yes, I need help. I need t...

Poem;A Familiar Sky, A New Me

I looked into the skies, and I saw this— Here in the city of Ogbomoso📍 A gust of overwhelm rushed through me. It stirred memories I couldn’t quite explain— Memories of fearing the rain, Of fearing our old house might be blown away, Of muddy streets I used to hate After every stormy day. But I looked up and smiled. I was amazed… and I wondered why. Life happened—yes, it did. And now I find myself Loving this very same sky, This very same atmosphere I once wished away. © Fai...

POEM; Whispers in the dark Moving in the oceans of girdling lies Going over pending files He looked into the overwhelmed souls Sitting directly in the opposite rows. Knowing deep down in his majestic self (As he scanned through shadowed shelves, He traced the spines of thoughts at bay) That these words would unravel at noonday. He longs for tides to turn just right, For dawn to ride without a fight. He wanted everything just perfect, Not wanting to be laughed at. He kept this for so long, A...

With fingers that crafted Andromeda's might, He gently guides you, through life's plight. In the vastness, you're not alone, For the God of ga...

Silence and Freedom

The mood that makes mute. Unuttered thoughts that is supposed no one hears. The urge to speak. Unable to find words. Scanning for words. Able to find words. Imprisoned by fear that produce Silence. A lovely smile. Soothing speech. A heart full of joys. Bright and brave. The words many like to hear. The words that make many raise their hands.

Must It Be Me?

Must it be me, That the winds of sorrow chase, When joy is served at many tables, And I am left with an empty plate? Must it be me, Whose footsteps echo through lonely paths, While others find the drumbeats sweet, And dance beneath the moonlit grass? I ask the trees, they only sway, I ask the birds, they fly away, The river hums but will not say, Why storms choose me, day after day. The elders say, “The chick that scratches early, Finds the seed that others miss,” But my hands are raw fro...

ANXIETY: battle within

ECHOES of UNSEEN It comes not loud, but soft and slow, A whisper in the mind’s shadow. No warning signs, no flashing light, Just breath that flees and chest pulled tight. It wears no face, it speaks no name, Yet every thought it twists with shame. It turns the mirror into war, And locks the self behind a door. It tells you lies in gentle tones: “You’re not enough,” “You’re all alone.” It paints the world in shades of fear, And makes your heartbeat disappear. Crowds become ocea...

I hang in silence, gripping air, while the world chants: _"Leave her alone."_ But how can I? Am I too much? Too expectant? Too desperate to be what she’ll never need? The heart kneels— a fragile worshiper at her altar. Her name echoes, yet never rhymes with mine. She is sacred, and I am the trespasser. _"I am someone else's property,"_ her...

I used to think to love was priceless!

THE POWER OF DEATH To love is to hurt ones self Death doesn't really hurt but when we love, it does. It is our inability to let go of the past. It is to want more but never to let go. For in order to really be free, we have to be willing to let go Of the past and embrace the future. For in death, humans find the strength to let go. #poetry #nirclepoetry #nirclenewsfeed

We walk around thinking our wounds make us separate, But maybe they're the thread that binds...

Naked But Not Ashamed

I stood in the garden of broken dreams, No fig leaves, no silken seams. The world saw my scars, my pain, my flame, Yet I stood naked, but not ashamed. The serpent hissed, “You’ve lost it all!” But heaven whispered, “You still stand tall.” Stripped of wealth, of pride, of name, I’m covered in mercy, clothed in grace. Adam fell, and Eve did too, But redemption came and made me new. No guilt, no chains, no lingering blame, I am naked, yet not ashamed. The earth may laugh, the crowds ...

A mother’s touch, both balm and blade, Soft in moments, then love delayed. She yearned for words that never came, And wore the silence like a name. The weight of “be good,” the sting of “not quite,” The smile she faked to make things right. Validation just out of reach, A child still learning how to speak. She danced for love on broken t...

Smiling Faces, Silent Battles: The Invisible Storm of Depression

It's not seen. It’s the silence between breaths. The invisible ache masked by "I’m okay." It slips behind smiles, Shadows behind laughter that sounds too rehearsed. It’s tiredness no sleep cures, It’s hunger with no appetite, It’s loneliness even in company. I pen this with love, For those whose eyes shine yet minds dim, Whose hearts smile but faces bleed. Those drowning, not in oceans, but in thought. Those who’ve mastered the art of showing up, Even when their souls beg to withdra...
