Basirat Balogun

If you don't learn to write your own story, someone else will write it for you

12 poems·Since March 2014

I am Basirat but every one calls me Kemi. Poetry is my passion, I have always been good at writing but I never truly realized that poetry was my talent. My poetry persona is The Moon Owl for many reasons, for one I do some of my best writing at night time, that is when I am always awake like an owl. The moon's light is a reflection of the Sun and I strive for all of my light and glory to reflect the Son (Jesus Christ) and the owl represents wisdom which is something I have that is beyond my years. I am currently working on trying to publish my poetry in a book this year:)

19©

March 22, 2014

You died at the age of 19. 
19 is the number of faith.

You were hit on December Friday the 13th 
Friday, the 6th day of the week; 6 is the number of weakness of man and manifestation of sin
13 the number of Apostasy; depravity and rebellion
December the 12th month of the year, 12 is the number of Governmental perfection

The 14th and the 15th you laid in a Hospital Bed Brain dead and the 16th they pulled the plug
14 is the number of Deliverance and salvation
15 is the number of rest
16 is the number of love
Three days from the time of the accident to the time of your passing
3 the number of Divine Completeness and perfection….

The numbers tell the whole story…we know God is taking care of it…see this is a poem written more as my thoughts and I have come to the conclusion that this was a message…who else but God would have put it in me to go and look into these numbers…he saw me hurting and he wanted me to know that there is no reason for me to worry about my brother because he has been taken care of.
Daniel had faith, we might not have known it but he did. 19. The enemy was working and was trying to cause disruption and destruction not only in Daniel’s life, but in his family’s and his close friend’s lives as well. The story of Job was brought to me and in the story, Satan was in the presence of the Lord and Satan had said to the Lord, “Does Job fear God for nothing? Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land. But now stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face.” So God gave Satan the power over all of Job’s possessions but not Job himself. Job lost it all, yet he still did not curse God, and God blessed Job and replenished his life….It seems as though I am in a Job situation, as if Satan was saying, “if you take away one of her best friends, she will surely curse you”. 6. 13. And as if to squeeze lemon juice in the cut, the man that did this was let out on bail….but see, December is the 12th month and 12 is governmental perfection, as if God is saying, “don’t worry I got this.” 12. 
14th 15th and 16th, the days you laid in a hospital bed. The first day you were delivered, the second day you rested, and the third day you went but you knew that you had love all around you so you got the answer to your question from that Facebook post you posted just a few days before this happened to you. You would be missed. You are missed. 14.15.16.
