I’m a poet who writes from the layers, part memoir, part rebellion. My work is about shedding old skins, facing old shadows, and exhuming the real self from years of doubt.
I’ve written custom poems for personal projects, spoken word pieces, and lyrical content that turns raw emotion into words people actually feel. I specialize in personal collections, love letters, tribute poems, and reflective pieces.
I’ve worked with clients creating original poetry for birthdays, anniversaries, their pain, growth and personal healing. I’m comfortable writing in English, Yoruba, and Nigerian Pidgin, and I deliver clean drafts fast with revisions included.
I don’t just write poems,I excavate them. If you want words that scrape past the surface and hit deeper, that’s me. I’m detail-oriented, I listen first, and I treat every client’s story like it matters. Lagos-based,global delivery

No doubt
I am my own demon.
I’ve learned the weight of my shadows,
felt them breathe when the world goes quiet,
heard them whisper truths
no one ever stayed long enough to understand.
But I’ve heard stories too
that even demons
are not made to be alone.
That somewhere,
there exists an angel
who does not flinch at the fire,
who does not try to rewrite the darkness,
who does not love a reflection
but the raw, unfiltered soul beneath it.
One who looks into my eyes
not searching for who I could become,
but choosing who I already am
the version the world turned away from
but I never could.
Yet I have searched…
and found only almosts.
Angels who arrived with promises,
soft voices wrapped in forever,
hands that swore they would never let go
but somehow,they always did.
And in every leaving,
they handed me back my reasons
reasons I once buried,
reasons I feared,
reasons I called my demon.
They reminded me
why I ran from myself,
why I refused to embrace
the very thing I cannot escape.
Now I feel it,the quiet breaking
Like pieces of me
loosening from their place,
falling into spaces
I cannot reach anymore.
I feel myself sinking,
slowly,
silently
into a depth
where even my own voice
cannot find me.
Depression doesn’t scream
it drowns you gently.
And I…
I am tired of fighting the water.
I feel myself returning
to that old version of me
the one who cries in silence,
who pulls away without goodbye,
who disappears
while still being seen.
Maybe one day,
my demon will find its angel
or maybe…
it will finally learn
how to survive
without one.
