I always tell people that nothing good ever came out of the comfort zone. In fact, if anything, it’s the comfort zone that always holds us back. It keeps us from attaining our real potentials. As the title clearly states, I would love to discuss pain and how it is a catapult to achieve greaterContinue reading “Of pain and why it matters.”

BRIDGE BETWEEN NETHERWORLD AND NIRVANA
I found a strange comfort in my netherworld Screams so loud they numbed my hearing I embraced the darkness till I became its very nature I dined with the swines and Lucifer I had fallen, A price I had to pay for being worthless. A single bridge separates my netherworld from Nirvana And the road to it won’t be easy But myContinue reading “BRIDGE BETWEEN NETHERWORLD AND NIRVANA”
INSOMNIA
I took a walk when my eyes failed to close In the darkness, I watched I watched as the liquor flew out of my hands. With a blow to the head I sent Jack Daniel flying into the moon That night with the moon and stars as my witnesses, I decided to live again. SolomonContinue reading “INSOMNIA”
OUR EXISTANCE, THE EMBODIMENT OF HOPE
Our existence is the embodiment of hope. The fact that you breathe is hope in itself. Life is hope. But I’ve come to understand that hope is a very dangerous thing. Hope is what breaks you. It is what brings the strongest of men (and or women) to their knees. And since life is hope and hope is dangerous, then life is dangerous in itself. You can’t live and not expect bad things to happen. At one point or the other in life, certain things shall and will happen. But because we hope only for the good things, occurrence of bad things will break us. Just Imagine winning a 5 million dollar cheque! Imagine this happening and you did not hope for it to happen? That overwhelming feeling, the adrenaline, the energy is inversely equivalent to what you feel when you break because something happened that you did not hope for.
Those that hope the most get broken hardest. But they are same people have changed the world. Hope breaks us but it is also hope that pushes us to achieve the impossible. Hope builds the world. So we can’t stop hoping simply because we don’t want to get broken. Life is a risk in itself. The uncertainty of tomorrow is the biggest risk. But to reach tomorrow, you need that hope. That hope that can get you there or break you.
The Eagle
Learn to fly alone The great eagle seldom flies with an another. And yet he soars highest. Be like the the great eagle. LEARN TO FLY ALONE. Solomon
A TRIP DOWN NOWHERE
In the middle of nowhere
I see windmills everywhere
The wind whispers in my ear
“Solomon, there is energy far and near”
I just can’t figure out where.
I guess a trip down nowhere
Will give you the energy to go everywhere
So never cry because you’re nowhere
Trust me, I’ve been there.
Heart of Stone
They judge and they stab, they mock and they laugh They rejoice when short you come, But always remember this; Your heart is made of stone And not of gold. SOLOMON There will be people who will judge you on the first flaw in you, and there are those that will look past all yourContinue reading “Heart of Stone”

FALLING FOR BLACK AND WHITE
The small memories of you,
Now slowly turn black and white
Like this picture right in front of me.
sited on the grass, smiling away to the skies.
Invictus (William Ernest Henley 1849-1903)
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
