Memoirs of a Once Precious Love
#LoveWednesday #Adeola-mi #Memoirs A man once told me he lost his wife two months prior to that time and I couldn’t figure out how he managed to survive. This is me, who cannot dare imagine not speaking with the ‘Lady I Love’ for a few weeks, talk less of not seeing her again. I remember […]
NOW AND FOREVER
#LoveWednesday #Adeola-mi Now,ever than before, I am convinced I’m in Love with you.

LOVE NEARLY LOST
I will humble myself and accept that I love you I will put aside my ego and let you know I really do And I will leave my comfort to make you feel the best I will do all I can to make you, in me, find rest But really, I won’t erase my inmost […]
