When you are Away - Day 13

Today was easier
than I thought it would be 

So I’m back, 
Obviously đŸ™„ 
And I stumbled on a video
that took me straight back
to the last time I saw you.

I got to stare, 
really stare.
I even got to hear your voice.
It melted me
Reminded me
Why I fancy you.

But
I’m still beefing you.

Because you knew.
You were away for 18 days…
and you made no plan.
Nothing.

What did you think would happen?
That I wouldn’t notice the absence?
That you wouldn’t feel this restless?

I know you’re thinking of me
like I’m thinking of you.
I know you’re missing me
as much as I’m missing you.

And maybe that’s the gift of silence:
that it pulls at you,
tugs at me,
until we both admit
What this really is.

So yes,
 I’m thankful.
Grateful, even.

But still,
I’m beefing you.

And when you’re back,
just know
I’m fighting you
for making me miss you this much.


Not sure how it all started, here is the story of how it all began.

Just to see You

This morning was chaos in the most ridiculous, beautiful way.

This is for you - Part 2

She’s weak in the knees She pauses 

Tired, stretched, challenged… but still here

The quote is in Yoruba-English.   Ayo: When people talk about resilience, they imagine it as this superhuman ability to never get tired, to keep going without breaking a sweat.
