https://anchor.fm/s/2abce45c/podcast/rss Hello! This is to new ventures and sharing our voice to the world. In all honesty, I am scared. This feels like stripping in front of the busiest mall in town. I hope this podcast will impact at least one soul on this earth. So here it is, my latest baby project. Love, Twisted …
I'm tired. Tired of playing second fiddle. Tired of towing the line and being reprimanded for things I didn't even sign up for. Am I the scapegoat? You readily throw your sins at me. What is my crime? Is it my existence that bothers you? Is it the cross you carry? Is it the scorn …
If I wrote a song, it would be about failed love. How he broke my heart and left me in the dark. I would sing how I am less happier without him. The sun is dull and food tastes so bland. I'd talk about how miserable I am now that he is gone. I'd beg …
I don't fit the moldI like the coldI wish my life was soldI feel too oldLike anytime I could fold."I really hope she isn't holed in that room writing more poetry. Who will tell her she sucks?"The walls in the apartment were paper thin and his voice reached her. She locked the door and barricaded …
"Catch a vibe, he said! What was I thinking Ella? Was it crack? Why did I agree to all that?" She was packing up her bags, tears clouding her eyes. They had met at a barbeque, she wanted a mimosa, he offered her more than she bargained for. A smooth tongue and a toned body. …
Sticks and stones they don't break my bones but I am getting tired of this journey. She has faith,a truckload of hope and a bottomless pot of strength. I cannot stand another white coat and the smell of antiseptic. Hospitals give me chills and definitely not the good kind. We've been married 12 years. The …
“I love my life like my fries, plain and unsalted.” She then waltzed out of the room with her head held high. There was a lot of confusion left after her dramatic exit. Was it a metaphor or one of her sarcastic remarks? She had a tongue that spewed words with double meanings, one had …
The heavens are blissful and they bathed us with new light. Hear ye! Hear ye! We bagged another nomination this time for the Liebster Award courtesy of Jaber Jasunga. Thank you lovely soul. The Liebster Award is recognition given to one blogger from another blogger, more like a chain of appreciation from one blogger to …
Seven days till the date and I am stressed out. He likes red like strawberry red but the closest red thing I own is in apple red that's far from his preference. I could wear yellow but it's dinner not a brunch date. White, pure and angelic but I told him I swear like a …
She came into the room, her hands stained red with purple bruises forming on her porcelain skin. Her face was pale white and her pink dress was torn from the waist down exposing her long legs that were covered in blue marks. She kept looking over her shoulder even when she was safe within the …
Descendants of Adam and Eve, hear ye! Hear ye! Sound of the gong sweeping through these quiet streets. Hear ye! Hear ye!

The neighborhood dogs are driving me crazy with their continuous barking. …

"Can I get potato juice?" she asked the man at the counter. "Ma'am this is a bar not an organic restaurant. Did you read the sign walking in?"He quipped. He wasn't in a good mood at all and this strange lady was just getting on his last shreds of sanity. Fifteen minutes until his shift …
She was nervous I could feel it from across the room. Every few minutes the cracking of her knuckles broke the silence that had engulfed the room. “Do you need anything? Some water, tea or coffee?” She answered in the negative. She was okay. He had no idea how he would calm her down; it …
The front door opened with a bang and light foosteps could be heard running up the stairs. One of his kids had a bad day and he wasn't about to coax the dragon awake. They would have to wait for their mother, the dragon slayer. He carried on watching his NBA game unperturbed, having three …
Ian if I call out your name again I swear your behind will be redder than grandma's tomatoes! Sometimes I wonder if I sold this child I'd have my life back. It's wishful thinking but did I have to give birth to this cannon ball of a human? It's 11 am and I am exhausted, …
"Hello this is Lucas speaking...I am sorry you believed I picked the call. Leave a message after the beep." He always does this and she kept on falling for it. Hello Lucas it's Jane we need to talk. It's been a while now and I can't get you off my mind. It's not because of …
"You and me, we make quite the formidable team. Join my ranks and be the deputy commander of my troops." He has a way with his words and I don't remember saying yes but here I am three years later. He still makes my strides hasten whenever I see him. It was supposed to be …
'Which is your stop ma'am? Ma'am... Miss... Are you okay? Do we need to call someone? ' he gave a small shove and her eyes widened like a deer caught by the headlights. 'Pardon.' 'Which is your stop ma'am? You haven't pressed any floor number .' '21st floor. That's my stop.' Her voice was smooth …
"How about one last kiss? Just one for the road,please?😃"It was his tagline each time they had to say goodbye. A war of lips would ensue and it would take all they had to let go of each other. Breaths mixing, hearts racing and minds lost kind of whirlstorm of a kiss. The kind that …
I want to be petty. Petty you missed my birthday. Probably throw in a forgotten anniversary. I want to rile you up. Get your blood pumping in all the wrong ways because that’s what I feel around you! Roaring sounds in my ears like gushing waters down the rocky rivers. You are tearing my soul …
He has me smiling at my phone, Dreaming of his hands intertwined with mine, Feeling like wolves are howling in my tummy, He has me at a vantage point, Right where he wants me to be. He had me rushing, Diving head first into fast waters, Knowing too well I cannot swim, He feeds my …
I am not a sad writer neither am I a sad person but there is a certain beauty in sadness. There is a vulnerability that comes with the emotion that just tugs at the strings of my heart. I honestly love being vulnerable but on my own far from people. In the confines of my …
"There's a guest for you,sir." It had been 5 long hours of waiting for her to show up. The agony had turned into angry snarls and grunts directed to his servants. He banged doors, broke a glass and was close to setting the living room on fire. She could feel the heat radiating from him. …
"A delivery for Miss Carmen, " he politely explained. It was a bigger box than she expected. It was nicely wrapped in her favorite colors ,orange and black. He had a way of getting into her head and messing it up. She was scared and looking forward to his surprise gift. She hoped he packed …
It's not even midnight,she's by the balcony slowly sipping her tea. Tea is never hurried,she knows that and has perfected the art of chai-taking. Her mind is wandering like it does most times. She has painted easels better than The Mona Lisa in that beautiful mess of hers. She has scaled heights within her mind …
Could you spare that look? Spare it for our daughter, Let it be her reference, That men can be amazing. Would you impact our son? Teach him to be a man, Not a man to build his ego, But a man you can entrust your daughter to. Could you tell her? Tell her …
If Teddy could speak,he would have quite the tale. If he could write,he would have a bestseller in all the countries. He knew so much yet he couldn't share it with a single soul. Teddy was big, not fat just large and fluffy. He was pristine,an angel without a halo. He existed when everyone else …
I should have left your name in the pages of my diary because then I would still be sane. I am not saying you drive me crazy but I am sure I knock a few nuts loose in your system. I am not easy to love that is what my mind tells my heart. I …
I don't know how to say sorry, I am sorry about that. I have always been the one to apologize,apologize for things I have done and things I haven't. He told me, "Stop apologizing , you aren't perfect and I acknowledge that." I found myself saying sorry again and he walked away. So I stopped …
'I am not okay.' It feels so good to finally say these four little not so little words. For the past month or so I have been balancing on a somewhat slippery knife. I have battled lows and serious breakdowns that left me so exhausted. I might have pushed a lot of people away because …
Hey, scratch that, I have no strength to write again. This is why I was afraid to fall because you would not pick me up. I got lost in a maze of my own doing, I actually thought that you would be different. I religiously check my phone each day, going through all the social …
Where's my mind? Where's my mind? Where's my mind? Maybe it's in the gutters, where I left my lover. What an expensive fate! My V is for vendetta, I thought that I'll feel better but now I got a bellyache. Billie Eilish-Bellyache Lilac, that was her name, like the fragrance that wafted through the summer …
In a journey of two, Let me be the one, The one that completes the sum. A journey of deep seas, I'll be the anchor ⚓, I'll hold you down. Through thick bush and buzzing insects, Let me be the repellent , Keep you itch free, Just let me be. So Valentine's is here yet …
I want to be ugly, Look from the sidelines, Love in the dark, Away from their expectations. I want to be ugly, If it means I'll be free, Free to be me, To follow my dreams. I want to be ugly, Not care about what they say, Be at peace with the world, Safe in …

I probably should buy those huge teddy bears preferably white or brown in color with lots of soft fur. Why do I need that? Simply for company especially when the days and nights seem like they stretch for miles without end. Maybe it’s the single life but that is the least of my worries. Mr. …
Guess who finally quit the single’s club? 💃 Passing on the baton to the next in line and hello taken fraternity😋. Breathe! Well I really can’t even if I try. We have quit the singles’ club for good, me, myself and I are taken😊. It feels unreal, please wake me up this seems like a …
I've been writing so many letters,to my crush,to my kids, myself and anyone else that felt like I needed to express myself too. There's so much on my mind and sometimes writing is not enough well because some feelings are better expressed in action not colored words or a dozen emojis. It's so hard trying …
I'm in bed again, the fourth or fifth day in a row. I'm no longer sure, I'm hiding from the world because I'm scared thoughtless and all the lesses you could think of. It's so bad 😢. My eyes are droopy and weigh a tonne now. Maybe I think I've lost my sight somewhere between …
Hey 25 year old me, You are staring at the mirror again hoping for a thinner waist, bigger hips that after sometime you just want them to disappear. You are counting the number of pimples that have invaded your face stretching out from the Horn of Africa to the Arctic ocean. You hate that crooked …
Describe yourself in three words. Cool, calm and collected. Those are the words likely to be expected since I appear to be. 😂😂😂😂😂 Joke of the century. If you know my personality in and out you'll know I'm far from being any of those adjectives. Anyway... Today I'm going to write about friends ,actually one …
She was lying on the floor, white tiles glistening like a newly oiled baby, clutching her stomach her bony hands pressed against it. She was sick, sick to the core, throwing up her guts. Her tears streaked face made the grim reaper scamper in fear. Previously applied mascara ran down her face. Her eyes looked …
``Hey, you've been seated here for so long. Don't you think that you're missing out on so much? '' The look she gave me had me asking if I really had to disturb her peace but I was curious. Why would she be alone when there was so much going on around her? Behind her …
Kindly let my eyes swim a little longer, my body literally freezes in water. Yes, I can't swim well because my life flashes before my eyes and I imagine the kids I never got to raise, the guy I never got to date and the good that never bloomed into action. To be honest I …
This sounds funny, Corner girl😂😂. I actually laughed as I wrote it. Well I'm grateful you noticed the things I hide, my friends are not that observant so I guess it's a nice thing. Life has a way of beating one down but we rise. The sadness in my eyes is the result of a …
I’m not really sure if this is the right thing to do. I have always been a little awkward and shy. I can’t really blame anyone but I’ve always been a social pariah. I don’t talk much; I just watch or stare if I have too. That’s weird I know but I get to learn …
Remind me, please remind me that it's okay not to be fine. Please remind me that I can lean on you sometimes. Please remind me that I can feel all I want. Please remind me that the scars are part of the beauty of the art. Long hugs, slow music and soft laughter. Hot Cocoa …
Her name was Casey, an introvert with a side few got to know. She hated crowds and places where she couldn't be comfortable. Her mind was her prison, her thoughts her wardens reigning her in. Like every human she had her escapades. Her wandering soul found her solace within the pages of a book. Her …
The bell rings repeatedly, the person at the door is impatient. It must be a delivery, time is forever running out on them. "Miss, your package please sign here. Have a lovely day," he rushes to his car. A lovely day, a dream far fetched I can't remember the last time it was lovely. In …
