Destination Happiness

“Afraid of regrets, I went on stage, unsure what the future had to offer. I took the coward’s way out” Recently, I’ve been living in the cocoon of destination happiness. I’ve deferred my life for more than a year. I put everything I want on hold because I’ve been in…

My friend and I had a call yesterday morning on how to author a manual. As we were talking she said, “I want to be an action lady this year. A doer. I need to tick things off my to-do list”. I agreed with her completely. I have to be…

Bearing pain with such sorrow, Head down, shoulders bent, From the world, I want to borrow, A hiding place to prevent. In hiding, I believe in miracles, This delusion, my only friend, “You dreamed it all,” says the oracle, Freezing time until the end. “Stay strong,” they say to me, “A strong woman, you must be.” And indeed, there’s two of us, you see, One out there, one’s in misery.

Memory Lane…

I’m standing in my Kitchen, crying and playing Mercy Chinwo’s ‘obinasom’. These are not tears of sadness. They are tears of recognition. I recognize the hand of fate. Igbo people say ‘chi onye na-akwara ya uzo’. …

Change

I sulked like a child last night. I just wanted to exist. I don’t want to learn new meals, new girlfriends, or a new life. I cried last night. I’m often reinventing myself. I’m not sure I know what I’m doing yet it seems to work. I documented yesterday. My imprints in the sands of time. History is often unkind to those who leave no records.

Infidelity is such a weird thing.

I’m looking at my friend smiling sheepishly at her man. He looks so devoted to her. I love their love. I remember this picture. I laid flat on the floor to get good angles. Hmmmnn. I don’t understand what they have been saying to me all day. Nne, you swore you’re deeply in love with Ebuka. I mean, he is your ride or die ọ kwa ya?

Twists of fate…

Have you ever wondered about the life of people who have crossed your path in a way that you remember them years after? People that made an impression on you and yet were total strangers and you possibly will never see again. In 2008, I rode a Peace Mass Transit…

Goodnight Kia…

I’ve been writing and editing this in my head because it’s impossible to fully capture Kia. I find it difficult to make friends. This is surprising because they say I’m cheerful, boisterous, and friendly. For Kia and I, it was ‘love at first click’. …
