The Betrayal In my Gethsemane, dewdrops do not see the sunlight Although I reached beyond the watery void to improve my sight; Faint shapes danced like drunken dervishes; not there, yet slight.

Although I reached beyond the watery void to improve my sight;
Faint shapes danced like drunken dervishes; not there, yet slight.

To Menya: Cold Catch Me Like Ice

"My heart talk gidi gbam
Na my own, I don see am!
The fear wey man dey fear...
Na better slap suppose tear
Im face, na disgrace, better tear,
Fall from im eyes...
Cold catch me like ice.

I look your eyes...
Belle turn, my tongue dries..
