On a day like everyday, you're one…

• Olayinka Olarinoye

____ _____

I'd always place crowns

there where doubts ravage;

& I'd always say so little to you

on days when we swear oath to silences.

If today, you see this,

I hope you'd grab a duster

& rid yourself of all the doubts you carry;

& all the fears and tears you out of matrimony married...

I hope you'd step out today

in all of that glorious glory;

in steps that'd rock the world savvy,

& with all of that self-assured drama…

I hope that you'd more than this poem

pour out all of that love to the world

& take only the best of the same back,

cos' you're the one to everyone. The best.
