Adeyemi Chronicles - Nkemjikaku Christien
You
If a Christien at sixteen plans a mixing and picking of Gypsies, how would the Gypsies have their picking so they can do their mixing in sixteen formats to birth a Christien?
Adeyemi,
My eyes ran away from you When books beckoned
On my brain
But I need you to know, Your name is the tattoo
Which regulates my heart's function Your smile is the gold
Which I lay up in my eternity. You saw this
And encouraged it to this And you know, tomorrow, Our pledge would matter;
Tomorrow, our pledge would have Little feet bearing your brain
And my heart.
Tomorrow, this and this will merge So we can be one;
Ade mi merged with Kemjy.
Adeyemi, Te Amo.
You are my Spanish weather That inspires my guitar
To string lyrics in your honour.
Adeyemi
I searched the stars tonight, for that one named after you.
