Ilésà

Ilésà

Iléṣà

You remind me of Iléṣà

The ageless town in Southwest Nigeria

My morning dawn

The only place that feels like home

You’re how I see the world

The moonlight I can count on

When hallow darkness beckons

Your colours shine through and through

You’re my huge no-judgement room

Where I let myself pour out

When fears and doubts double-date me

Your peace keeps me grounded

You’re the joy in my journey

Just by the simple things you say

You make everything better

Your faith in me is more than wings

You fix me in all the right places

Beneath your brown roof you woo me

You light up a fire in me

A fire I call love

You hold my tender heart between yours

Like the view from Ìmò Hill,

You’re my moments of calm

My Sweet November
