TO THE MEN WHO STAY

'For Men’s Mental Health Month' To the men who stay— Even when the weight is silent, Even when the world tells you “Be strong” but never says how. To the ones who carry What they don’t speak of, Who show up, Even when it hurts. You are seen. You are not just providers, You are protectors of peace, And peace belongs to you too. You are allowed to exhale. Allowed to rest. Allowed to cry without apology. Strength isn’t silence. It’s staying soft In a world that demands steel. So...

Self Love

Hello guys, Let's start the new month on a good note Happy New Month to you all. Self-love isn't about wearing the finest dresses. It’s not in the perfect makeup Or the best pair of shoes. Self-love doesn’t seek validation From what others see— It honors what you see. What you know. What you accept. About yourself. It’s looking in the mirror and saying, “Damn, you look good.” It’s seeing a dress and thinking, My body made this look great. It’s caring for yourself The way...

A GOOD FATHER

A good father doesn’t always speak loud— But his presence is louder than words. He may not know how to say it all, But his actions finish the sentence. A good father is a covering, Not made of noise, but of strength. Of prayers whispered under breath, And sacrifices we didn’t always see. He shows up, even when he’s tired. He stays, even when it’s hard. He may not be perfect, But he is present. And that alone Changes everything. So to the fathers who try, To the ones who love in th...

MY VOICE, MY WEAPON

My voice, My weapon. My voice, My pride. I spoke but Couldn't recognize me. I said a word but Didn't know it was me. Why couldn't I Recognize me? Why couldn't I Know it was me? How can I know the Cough of my mother? How can I know the Sound of my sisters? How can I know when My brother speaks? How can I know when Others speak? Why can't I recognize me? My voice is me. Me is my voice. I should recognize me. I should know me. Now I decide— I will speak up. I will know me. I will re...

Tropes to expect #Art #NircleWriters #WriteOnNircle #HelloNircle #MyNircleFeeds #NircleFeeds

PRAYER — GOD'S SILENT SOUND

Prayer is the written word On a blank page. Prayer is the Silent sound from God. Prayer is the quiet whisper No one hears. Prayer is the deep request Made from the heart. Prayer is the key That opens closed doors. Prayer is the answer We didn’t know we needed. Prayer is the word That walks behind our actions. Prayer is the quiet talk Between God and soul. ~ L.R Bethel-Gold #Art #NircleWriters #WriteOnNircle #HelloNircle #MyNircleFeeds #NircleFeeds #NirclePoem #Poetry #Poet #Poem

ODD FEELING

Before it began, I wanted to get there. I wanted to shine. I wanted to feel among. I wanted the pleasing chills. I wanted the results. I wanted the glory. I wanted to tell myself, “Well done—you did it.” Then I began. It felt good at first. It felt complete. It felt natural. It felt like eternity. It felt like a warm hug After a cold storm. It felt like the kind of soup That heals the chill of night. It was perfect—at first. Then... I couldn’t keep up. There were other things...

New Day, New Week

Hi guys, How are you all doing? It's a new week. I hope your week becomes great and your day starts well. In a previous post, I mentioned that I was considering changing the name of my book. Honestly, I thought about it and had a few names I contemplated changing it to, but... I just can't. I love the name I picked for this book, and it reads well with it. I have a whole series planned out for it, and I don't want to take that from this book. So, I am leaving it as Love Me Now. Attached...

RIGHT TIME

At the right time The Good Book says It shall speak When the time hasn't come There's struggle When the time isn't right There's pain When the time isn't right There's doubt Till then: Some may give up Some may continue Some may not care Some may just play by luck And... When the time comes The rewards flood in Some get it by luck Some get it by hard work Some get it by restoration But that time will definitely come No one knows when But when that day comes May it find you ready ~ L...

THERE WAS A TIME

There was a time Your name brought smiles There was a time Your presence brought comfort There was a time Your smile brought satisfaction There was a time You were my safe space But... Now Now, it fades away The smiles bring tears The name sheds pain The presence feels cold How did it happen? I'm not sure How did we get here? I can't figure But... What I know What I figured What I realized What I accepted Is that It was good while it lasted ~ L.R. Bethel-Gold #Art #NircleWriters...

Tell me what you think of that. :) Okay, I want to make a few announcements. Hmm... Okay, here we go. 1. I got a package... So here's ...

Happy Mother's Day

A Mother’s Love A mother’s love cannot be compared to anything. She covers her children with the wings of love. She protects them, even when life is unkind. Even when things don’t look good, She makes sure her child is okay. A mother’s love cannot be measured. She makes sacrifices that shape her children’s future. She gives herself for their good. She cries and prays each day, So her child can grow stronger, Stand taller, And become more. A mother is like no one else. Her love i...

Checking

Hello, guys! How's your week going? My week started out well, but it's going sha. How do I start? Honestly, I feel a tad bit overwhelmed by everything happening around me. First, there's no update on Love Me Now, but rest assured—you'll be the first to know when something pops up. A few of you asked if I'm sticking with my old publisher or finding a new one: I've decided to self-publish this time around. I appreciate your encouragement. This month eased in gently, but I feel jammed up with ...

SEEING THE UNSEEN

No one's looking. She says. No one cares. She concludes. I shouldn't show up. She decides. I shouldn't bother. She comforts herself But, What about the ones that care? The ones that's looking? The ones that wants you to show up The ones that look up to you? The one that makes reference to you? The one that bothers to know? What about them? What about you? ~ L.R. Bethel-Gold #Art #NircleWriters #WriteOnNircle #HelloNircle #MyNircleFeeds #NircleFeeds #NirclePoem #Poetry #Poet #Poem

How does one get over that feeling? How does one feel safe yet helpless? How do we fight off the fear— The kind that whispers in silence? Her eyes say she's seen hell. Her lips quiver like winter touched her thoughts. Her brows furrow, a dent in calm. Her heart thumps like it fears the dark. But still— She stands tall. Shoulders squared. Palms curled into quiet fists. Nerves sharp, steady. Breath controlled. Hope, buried but breathing. She shook. But didn't shatter. She fears, But didn't ...

Love Me Now

Hi guys Happy New Month How is your week going? We're literally almost at the end of the week Mine went well by the way I want to use this post to update you guys about my book that should have been published last month. I made a post earlier last month about republishing Love Me Now, and it's already in the works of getting published. There are just a little bit of hiccups, but by the middle of this month we will have this available online. I haven't published with a Nigerian publisher ...

Happy Worker's Day

You did the work. You get the reward. It doesn’t have to be an award, Or a show-stopping event. It has to be something you can do — And be proud of. Give yourself that pat on the back. Say, “Oh yes. I did a hell of a job.” You don’t need someone to say it first. You say it to yourself. Be content with the work you do. That’s how you’ll do more. Don’t look at others. Look at yourself. Be proud of you. Be proud of your work. Own it. #WorkersDay #truthplus #YouDidTheWork ...

MAY WILL

A new month ends. A new month begins. April may not have been it — But maybe May will be. Here’s what I wish you: May this month bring you joy. May it bring comfort, And peace where you need it most. May it be good to you. Let May mend What April may have broken. Happy New Month. #creativeworkmatters #writer #newmonthvibes #wriators #wriator #writersofnircle #Art #NircleWriters #WriteOnNircle #HelloNircle #MyNircleFeeds #NircleFeeds

RELATABLE

Hello, guys, How’s your week going? Mine is pretty busy. Had a lot of work to do here and there. I haven’t even posted as many poems as I wanted to this week, but I’ll try to post something later today or tomorrow. I noticed something while I was writing a chapter of my novel. I think most people are aware that the way screenplays/scripts are written is way different from novels. Simple present tense—mostly used in screenplays Simple past tense—commonly used in novel writing. I...

Breathe

Ẹ fara yín balẹ̀ Be calming down. The sun isn't going anywhere. The stars aren't in a hurry to shine in the dark. That thing you’re worried about— It won’t fix itself by worrying. You need to learn to give yourself space. To be kinder to yourself. Don’t rush just because it feels like time is running. The truth is—time waits for no one. But peace? Peace is something you can carry with you. Just take things easy. Let your mind rest. Let the ideas flow through you like a rive...

SHE'S A YOUNG WRITER.

Beauty inside.  Beauty outside.  Beauty in her words. She weaves thoughts that fly -   Like silk threaded with cotton. Her smile brings light.  Her words bring joy. Her story climbs,  And speaks lessons to all. Her words comfort.  Her words uplift.  Her words give life.  Her words bring meaning. Little creator she is…  Big entertainer she becomes. Like a seed placed deep in soil,  She springs forth -   A wealth of fruit.

Unique Writer

Good morning lovelies

MID-WEEK. MID-WINS.

The journey of a thousand miles Starts with a single step. You took that bold step — Now, you're seeing results. It doesn’t have to be big. It doesn’t have to be loud. It doesn’t have to look like someone else’s. It just has to be yours. Tailored to you. Your win. Your moment. Yours to own — Not theirs to judge. So, sit back. Take a look. Not to count your flaws, But to see how far you've come. You’re not where you were The last time you checked. See the bright side. Embrac...

A BRIGHT NEW MORNING

Rise and shine. The sun is up. How you start your day Often shapes how it ends. Will you start off playful, Drift through the hours, Only to realize — It was a wasted day? What will you do with your morning? A cup of coffee? A cup of tea? An early routine that moves your body, And gives your mind a head start? As you ease into your day, Don’t get overwhelmed by the to-do list. Focus on what matters. Celebrate the little wins — Because little wins become big ones. In the midst of it all...

MY SISTER KNOWS MY IDEA FACE.

Hi guys, How’s your weekend going? I just wanted to drop this here. So, I and my little sister are currently watching an Indian movie series [Pavitra Rishta], and we were talking about some of the things we missed when we watched it many years ago. She was explaining a part to me, and we were talking about it [that’s one way we analyze movies and compare them to real-life situations]. As she talked, I didn’t realize the smile that crept on my lips. She was like, “Why are you lookin...

BEAUTY IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER

Where beauty lies, beauty shines. His eyes — blue oceans, swaying like waves. His smile, light as water, clear as crystal. When all see nought, I see whole. When skies bring doom, the stars still bloom. In my eyes we meet, in his eyes we kiss. #Art #Poetry #WriteOnNircle #NircleStories

MY LETTER TO YOU 1.2 – END OF WEEK

Hey guys, How did your week start? And how did it go? Mine started well, and I just had a little boost with what I am working on. Which is a good thing. I wanted to drop this since Monday, but I had a little drawback, so I couldn’t do it. I think I mentioned before how tired and stressed out I have been these past days. Let me just give a little insight into what happened these past days. On Sunday, when I got back from church, I had this really ballistic headache, and it affected my ent...
