EVERYDAY PEOPLE: Nkem by Kelvin Kio

Nkem


Tell me why do things have to change when they were perfect
from the start...?
Why do we have to lose everything that we have always been
holding onto, after everything that we've been through
together..?
I kept thinking that this loneliness, this sadness, this.. emptiness
would be gone if I kept you by my side. But now, I realize that
even though something is near you.. they feel.. distant. Was it
because I was forcing them to continue staying by my side? Was
it because.. because you don't feel the way I wanted you to?
Was it because.. was it because I was too selfish to realize what
you truly felt? Was it because.. I was always focusing on my
feelings, that I didn't even have the time to consider what YOU
felt? Or was it because.. you saw right through me..?
I thought that this love was our destiny. I thought that you would
always stay by my side because.. I felt something connect
between us when we first met.. All I ever wanted for us to be
happy, but I guess things wasn't like the way it was before..
I just wanted to say.. that even after all we've been through, you
thought me something special.

Even though our love didn't last, I truly realized how it felt like to have
True love.... You said I should move on but...its never easy...because the
 hardest part of being broken is moving on with your life
though you're miserable inside. The excruciating pain will be a
torture for each and every passing day. it's hard to live like your
normal self again, because all you could think about is the pain
of losing someone you dearly love....and most painful? is...losing
her because of somebody else. No soothing words could
compensate the pains......Every waking moment without you is a
constant reminder that you're no longer Mine....

How to use 'many a' and 'a great deal of' in a sentence. How to pronounce 'impasse'

Good morning KIB  earthlings. Lets get down to brass tacks. Let's look at the use of verbs. Yesterday someone brought a statement to me and enquired if it were correct. 'many a fellow knows the truth' Many a driver ploughs this road daily' 'Many a teacher doesn't know how to  English'. All these sentences are correct. According to Oxford dictionary, Many a: ( formal: always used with a singular noun and a singular verb) means a large number of something. E.g many a young person has experimented with drugs.   So,  don't pluralise anything in the sentence because there is an 'A' already. 'Many a teachers like to flog their students ' is wrong. 'A great deal' How do you use 'a great deal'? A great deal takes a singular verb. E.g A great deal of bananas is planted in the north. 'A great deal' takes a singular verb.  Finally,  the pronunciation of impasse is /'ampa:s/ Not (impas) It's not Enem...

Is it 'off head', 'off hand' 'off pat' or 'by heart'?

I love all the new students in my class. You guys are awesome by the way. 😀😀 Today. I want to give you a better expression for saying that 'you know something very well'. #Offhead? There is nothing like offhead. 'I know it off head' is wrong. #Offhand? What does offhand mean? It mean without previous thought or consideration. Just like saying 'on the spur of moment' , 'immediately', 'spontaneously'. So, do you just know something offhand? No...not at all. You can say something offhand, do anything offhand but then it seems weird to say ' I know the answer offhand'. It is normal 'to say the answer offhand'. Do you get my drift? People don't know anything spontaneously, rather, they  say what they already know, spontaneously. Now to the final expression #HaveSomethingOffPat? It means to know something or be able to do something perfectly; be perfect master of something . So rather tha...
