COLOR? NO?

So many different colors arranged 
Cool, warm, harsh, wicked and wild 
These colors, so different yet so similar 
These colors so confusing, yet so clear
There is only one color I like
It’s not neutral like white and black
This color warms my heart 
This color melts my heart
This color I call abstract art
This color I call signature art
Slit my throat open 
See my veins poppin
Listen to my voiceless voice
Rip my chest see my heart dance 
The heart that harbored the color
The heart that harbored the dweller
This color became a tenant 
A tenant with no rent 
This color feels right
Eyes still gouged out
Brains about to explode
Tongue almost tied
This color
This honor
What to do?
What to decide?
Do you feel me?
Do you hear me?

I DEY FINE!

What’s light when there ain’t a little darkness
What’s calmness when there ain’t a little storm
What’s dealing with when there ain’t a little trouble
What’s conquering, victory when there ain’t a little battle

Sometimes you gotta be pushed to realize your worth
Sometimes the darkness ain’t even that scary
Sometimes the storm ain’t even that rough
Sometimes the trouble ain’t even that big
Sometimes the battle ain’t even that strong 

As I lay me down
I thank the Almighty for I am grown
As I put my head down
I pray to the Almighty that I can see dawn
As I close my eyes 
I hope for the spirit to give me joy and peace 

I dey up
I dey awake
Morning dew topping the grass
Sunshine engulfing the clouds
Drawing the curtains 
Shining my eyes
I no dey mumu
I dey correct babe
Yes I sabi am
Wetin be dis! You ask

It’s a voice, it’s a nerve
The last nerve that helps you see the light
The last nerve that keeps you calm
The last nerve that solves the trouble
The last nerve that conquers the battle
