Love Poem

I caught you in my dream tonight Alone in a giant field. Bailey weeds all around The wind speaks into the sunlight The air smell like the dust raised from foots of warriors horses I saw you stood still from a distance Waiting and looking so eager for something The sun setting right above your head Looked like a golden bright crown on you. Its brightness like fine gold And the beauty rises above calm waters. Slowly you walked towards me Butterflies hovering around you Like bees hover around it home Forming a ring of milky around your head. Silky was the dress you wore Finer than the robe from the house of Solomon Dropping down your heels And worshipping the beauty at your feet. You reached out for me from a distance Like a baby reach out for his mother My breath increased as I ran closer to you Finally here I am, standing right in front of you You look so beautifully dressed Like a bride in the court of Babylon. Your perfume smells like the future Giving way to all possibilities. Your skin glow like a mirage from the sky Hitting the surface of the ocean at dawn. I could see joy in your eyes That refuse to hide under your skin. And the only word you uttered was, "where have you been all along" Here I am my love Here I am my queen The words on my picture The rest to my journey The quench to my thirst The better life I'm living. Here I am waiting for you Here I am thinking about you. You are the life I choose to live You're the secret I can't hide You're the cloth I wear always that fade not The song on repeat I listen to that won't get tiring The mysterious image I can't take my eyes from The life I've chose to live. And if I let you know tonight It will be alright I bet. You're my world and one I want to write a whole lots of story with you Those that will make past love stories go obsolete And our love will never die Or sink in the pool of life. Cos we love so much Even death can't take us away. I love you. -DelwinJames-

Terrence howard admit hitting women

Terrence Dashon Howard (born March 11, 1969) is an American actor and singer. Having his first major role in the 1995 film Dead Presidents, he's a good actor but there is this side of him which I don't want to use any negative word to describe. Howard admit hitting his ex wife and he had a reason for this(provocation and annoyance from his ex). He also admit doing so again but this time, only not intentional and that was to another woman. This act of hitting women is wrong and should not be encouraged in our society

LIFE AS IT IS 2

If only we can get to see what the future holds for every individual, everyone of us would have sit patiently waiting for his or her own time of breakthrough. But life doesn't seem as such. We must struggle everyday to get what we want, we all have to look around us and beyond to see what next we can do to survive, to gather for the raining season, and to survive. The ways of he (God) who created this universe is a jumbo pack of misery, for he set rules for everything. Even animals in the wild have to work to get there own food, some hunt while some are hunted, the hunted also hunt for something to survive. They fight for space to live and so is man. There is a balance in the universe keeping all things far from splitting up. The bitter truth is 'no one knows tomorrow'. There's a saying in the olden days, "wait for your own opportunity " but this saying seem not to work again or it has been modified "work towards your own opportunity", so they say now. Never sit dock waiting for miracle to happen, instead take charge of your life and do something with it. </

The crane fell 0 days before the start of the Hajj, an annual pilgrimage expected to bring 2 million people to Mecca.

The mosque is the largest in the world and surrounds Islam's holiest site known as the Kaaba. King of Saudi visited the site of the crash and the hospitals where the injured were taken.

The ruler gave his condolences to the victims' families and vowed to investigate the cause of the accident.

 

THE TRUTH

Whosoever say the truth is bitter must really have some taste bud issue, because the truth ain’t bitter. It is sweet and smooth, it is not sore neither is it bitter.

The truth need to be told and not sugar coated.

Allow me to borrow some lines from the movie “Head of State” by Mays Gilliam; “That ain’t Right”

How many of you work two jobs just to have enough money to be broke? That ain’t right

How many of you work in a city you can’t afford to live in? That ain’t right

How many of you work in a shopping mall you can’t afford to shop in? That ain’t right

How many of you clean up hotels you ain’t never able to sleep in? That ain’t right

We’ve got nurses that works at hospitals they can’t afford to even get sick in! That ain’t right

It ain’t right.

And that is absolutely wrong

I know there will be some kind of explanation for everything that’s happening and some story to justify what’s going on in the country. But I tell you this, everything that’s wrong in this country is your fault and yours alone to bear (the government).

We have some youths committing crimes every day, it is not their fault fully. A young Nigerian spend about four, five years at the university, serves his country and find nothing else doing at the end of the day. He becomes miserable, dejected, lonely and sad with nobody paying attention to this ticking time bomb happening in our society.

Graduates keep piling and your pockets (Politicians) gets heavier, problems getting bigger, and the masses feeling the pain and pressure.

Statistic came out that a larger percentage of Nigerian Universities graduates are unemployable because, we have not got what it takes. But I am asking you “what in God’s name do we need again after five years in colleges and universities, what training do you think we lack that our prestigious University lectures hasn’t taught us, what other learning have we not received for those of us who spent three months in SIWES training, Six months in Industrial Attachment just to get better at what we are trying to be in the future.” I think this is a big slap on faces of our so called Doctors and Professors at the University level, because they surely put their best into we students, and 75% of their lives was dedicated for us alone. So, what else do we need?

I won’t sugar coat anything because I am not Willy Wonker, so let us call a spade a spade and not just some garden tools. Students from other countries and overseas  are not said to be unemployable, they are not tagged as we are for who they are, they don’t have to stay back at home lonely and frustrated. And they don’t still suck on their mamas’ breast to survive, because parents has done their part and it is our turn to do ours as their children.

How many of you youths still have to ask your parents for money just to go out?

How many of you youths still have to stay indoor doing nothing, not because you’re lazy but, because you don’t have no place to go?

How many of you youths get tired of the constant whining and abuses from parents and guardians because of your joblessness?

How many of you youths have to go on an irrelevant journey just to get away from your environment where you’ve been tagged.

How many of you have been harassed and libel just for showing up too many at a place?

How many of you youths had to go for interviews without a single phone call or email to congratulate you on the success of your job.

How many of you wish you can call an old neighbour or friend but lack of money to recharge won’t let you?

How manyt of you wish there is something that can be done to fix this problem?

I say I am tired of our government treating us like some filthy rag.

A single man in a political office will embezzle billions of Naira, I wonder how they get to control such money, I wonder if there is any regulatory body or office observing the spending of money in various offices, I wonder what kind of excuse is made up by such people to bank managers, Antony generals and Federation accountants, I wonder if such money isn’t too big for a single person for the bank to question them about what they do for living to have such amount.

It is so ridiculous and shameful for us as Nigerian to see our country been mess with.

I am not a soldier or a law enforcer, I am a Nigerian and I believe in “Equality”.

I believe in the truth and I stand by it.

And your children are not better than us at nothing; we are smarter, better, well trained and for a lack of word ‘Wilder’ than your children. God forbid one day your children will be turn unto, both home and abroad and they will suffer for every pain you’ve caused every Nigerian, both directly and indirectly and you won’t be able to do anything about it because you will be too scared to come out of your shell.

You will be too scared seeing what is happening to your own blood in the cause of your life. You will be too scared seeing what your generation is turning into and you won’t be able to do nothing about it.

You need not a seer or a priest to tell you that “YOU WILL BE JUDGED HERE ON EARTH”

And whatever thing you believe in won’t work for you that day.

Stop wasting our life as youths, stop standing behind walls of pretence, disguising to help us youths achieve our dreams. If you help a million youth today it still doesn’t cover for the huge number we have in our country, but No! You’re not helping a million. Instead, you pick about 100-300 youths and talk about empowerments. What are you empowering when the larger force is outside in the rain.

Create jobs, help youths with dreams either big or small, pay us salary as soon as we turn 18, even if it is only a stipend, send us out for training, encourage us to see possibilities in what the less enlighten sees as stupid jobs, organise programs and platforms that helps youth know well, create more technical colleges for those who are crafty and handy, equip our hospitals and libraries so that we can read better, employ more staffs in our hospitals to break the ever busy queue waiting to be attended to by the short staffed members of the hospitals. Stop giving graduates road sweeping jobs, gate attendants’ job, security jobs, grass cutting jobs, we did not spend 5 years at the university to do this. Bring the good stuffs you see abroad home to implement and make use of, stop wasting our life and brain, set up new banks and encourage investors more by improving the country’s electricity, security, and poverty rates.

Take more concern about the welfare of homeless children and encourage citizens that have plenty to help the less privileged. Stop pumping billions into concentrated areas and let the smaller communities enjoy the benefits of been Nigerians too. Stop sending only rich kids abroad for education and help those that are poor and brainy. When I see a Hausa man or an Ibo man, the only thing I see is a Nigerian and nothing else, I don’t call one a name and another by something else. I don’t care whether you are black or white because same blood runs within our vain, I don’t care whether you are rich or poor, we all deserve to be treated equally. 

 

This is a call for all of us, not only to the youths, not only for the poor, not only for those that are less privilege, and surely not for the rich too. Let us help build this country from scratch to something beautiful, because we are one beautiful nation. We are Nigerians!

I am DelwinJames

What Direction To Face Now

WHAT DIRECTION TO FACE NOW?

A canoe without a paddle will stay still on water or at least not go where it should go. We cannot fold our arms and watch what we have been taken from us.
"If you cannot have what you want, you should keep what you have. Destine gives no room for alteration" goes a saying hanging in my father's living room since I was a little boy. I had no idea what this meant back then, but the word remain glued to my heart.
You live in Lagos and can't afford to eat twice daily, going to work each day cost you fortune and you hardly communicate with your people, not that you don't want to but you are being afraid they might ask you for help. Be it monetary or other ways like accommodating them.
While some reside in Abuja and live like church rats that have nothing but beautiful things surrounding it but can't use any.
I will rather be a king in the jungle than to live as a slave in the city. So many people out there believe that there's money in the city. Of course there is, plenty of it though but do people think about the pain that comes with the monies in the city; unbearable hardship, turmoil and suffering that comes with getting the money. Those that have the money work there ass off getting it and it is survival of the fittest.
Time wait for nobody and as precious as it is, it can be lost forever. I took my time to observe few set of people around me(I mean people that lives in my neighbourhood), most of them are not living the suppose dream life they dreamt of living. According to a research, 99% of people having one job or the other are not happy with what they are doing. There is no fulfillment and this has been a major cause of frustration in many house holds. You hear different stories of husband bullying the wife, beating their children over unreasonable things. I'm asking, 'who's fault is this'?
The Country, the Masses, Economy or what?
A popular saying by Delwin James "Many times I've failed, many times I've tried, many times I've tried running away from all the miseries of life, all the pain and disappointment. But I realise the farther I go, the Deeper I launch into my past. So i've  learnt to fight the system because  I don't need fixing, the system does."
