LOVE NOTES- Victoria Soyobi


Image result for love notes picture
Love is life.
Life, they say, is not fair. Is love fair?
Let’s work it out together
You love someone so much that your day is incomplete without him
You think about him every second of every day
You want to pick the phone and call him almost every hour
When you speak with him, your day is just splendid and everyone around can see
When you get to spend time together,
Your whole world is made just perfect
He is the first that comes to mind
When there is any news, good or bad!
Everyone around, friends and foes alike,
Know his status in your life
That’s because you wouldn’t stop talking about him
Directly, or indirectly
You dress gorgeously, carry yourself with charisma
With the hope that you may come across him by ‘chance’
You would do anything to be with him
But guess what!
He likes it when you call, but would barely think about calling you
He likes it when he sees you, but he wouldn’t make effort to
He probably says hi only if you say hello first
You are the last person to know what’s going on in his life
Good or bad, because he doesn’t remember to tell you
Oh wait; he calls or says hello first
When he needs something or wants a piece of information.
He does some things once in a while though, that makes you go crazy,
Then you think he loves you
Yes he does, probably, but you are not just the first in his life
He is probably nice and kind but only when you demand it
We can go on and on…
You love him, he loves you;
But it’s not just the same- and it’s very frustrating
Now, here’s a twist to our story:
There’s a second guy in the picture-
Let’s put him in your shoes, and you- well in the first guy’s shoes;
He cares so much, but you only say hi when he says hello
Are you being paid back in your own coin?
This guy has a girl who’s all over him, whom by the way, he barely notices
Can we say, that what goes around comes around?
Sincerely, I don’t know
But that chain, it seems continuous and unending
It sort of reminds me of God’s love;
He loves us so much and yet,
We place him after ourselves, someone else, or something else.
Think, about it.

SALIENT LESSONS FROM THE CORONARY ARTERIES The coronary arteries provide blood supply to the heart, the blood pump. Some of its duties are outlined and deductions are saliently made from them. 1.       REPLENISHMENT: The first lesson to take from the coronary artery is that it replenishes the heart. While performing the work of pumping blood to other tissues, the cardiac muscle is replenished by means of its 2 coronary arteries. 2.       DIRECTLY SOURCED: The coronary arteries, unsurprisingly, take origin from the aorta, the main artery leaving the left ventricle, carrying oxygenated blood to all branch arteries of the human body. Thus, it originates from the principal source of maximally oxygenated blood; this points to the fact that it reveres impartation and not opinions. 3.       PERFUSION: The coronary arteries ensure that blood gets to every part of the heart by means of its several branches. Branc...

#MONDAY’S PROSE THIS CHILD; ON THE ROAD

Through my myopic eyes, a fleeting image of a little boy is formed on my retina A little boy in a little suit, Treading the familiar bushy routes before him The boy had neither escort nor directives And surely, he needed none For a 4 yr old on the road possesses more maturity than a 10 year old in ‘comfort’ Swiftly, she navigated through cars held in traffic An adventurous smile tugging at her split lips Providing snacks for impatient car-owners And though panting from car-chasing, She had a visible life of passionate content She probably planned to get off the street, Forsake her hypothetical ‘street-urchin boyfriend’, Give up this demeaning way of living, But I feared she wouldn’t! She hadn’t been wired to get off the street And sadly, she was too content to stage a forced exit. Children on the road and teenagers of the road, Not choosing to be this vulnerable Yet hooded and shrouded in the cold, Filled with shreds of hope that the fut...

 EPISODE 3 ‘Oya sorry now, we’re almost there.’ Felix kept saying as he partially carried his dear friend.  She wouldn’t hear the last of this episode once it was over, that much he knew! ‘Awww…you don’t know how painful awww… this is’ ‘Sorry, sorry’ ; he kept saying So they eventually got to the ER and after pulling out her card, used ‘medical student connection’ to see the resident that was on call in Internal Medicine unit. ‘Hello dear’ , Dr. Brown said, looking keenly at the girl that was almost doubled over in pain ‘I think you should lie down on that couch’ ‘What exactly is the problem?’ ‘She just started complaining about her abdomen about half an hour ago’ ‘Oh’. ‘Can you point to where exactly the pain started?’ he asked ‘Here’ . Linda pointed to the area around her umbilicus. ‘Have you had any episode of vomiting?’ ‘No sir’ Felix answered spontaneously. ‘You must be her boyfriend, right?’ Dr.Brown asked, with a mischievious grin ...
