Buzz! A call came in, a different number displays Did you receive a text from Cyrus, a shaky voice asks What’s are the contents, because I haven’t seen a pop-up ‘Life's harder, depressed and...’ the call ends and a text comes in.   I am sorry life is hard for me life no longer makes sense I have spent time searching; my heart only grows tenser Was I destined for this, family left last night with no goodbye? Securing a job in town is hard;

Dilemma caught a mind unaware

                                                       Photo by  Keira Burton  from  Pexels Dilemma caught a mind unaware Choose personal freedom or else subject to tear Giving in to emotion seems not a justification Deep within, comes a great desire, cause confusion.   A brother’s hand came in time just benign Whether rich or poor, life eases with a confidant He listened, weighed out, and leaned forward ‘Take time to know who she is before moving to award’.   For how long would you recall the last time A heart filled with fantasies, mind clouded for a while She gave twelve hours and asked how much dime Moving in was a thought, consideration led to a swirl.   A mouse knows a hole better than a cat pursuing Looking around in the room did seem to notice Ignorance make a defendant; opt for a chance to sue Freedom was a virtue, hard to render a solstice.   He pulled a seat, sat and a conversation started An ideal resolution was paramount, rather th

Meeting her, changed my life.

In pursuit of destiny

Noumenon fate  Early rises awake a spirit from the slumber Fate has always presented life as a wonder No one has a slight idea beyond any off Ideas in heart sojourn, deep yearning, Puff! Weaning, seeking, and amidst scrapping The pressure pushes and propeller speeds Illusions of mind hunger for birth A road not taken grows and thickens beneath. Who is responsible for the diversion? For my case, I wouldn’t know a similar alternation Somewhere far a cry gets louder and boomer Why will a heart so strong grow weaker than fonder? Days dawn into lit morning and dusky night The soul ever spirited and consciously intent Lifes writing a story, demands more plot Modeling a viable piece interesting than a folktale. Earlier days slip a little reflection in the sky A young soul harbors dreams to enquire why Nevertheless, life dreams, visions, and passions board. A plane to destiny awaits on trek far from pass board. For me, I would instill instincts down deep

An African Son

  An African son... Pioneers came to Africa When did that happen? Civilization made it possible To explore Africa a little. African way was and still exotic Can’t admit whites weren’t sarcastic Changing your belief to believe And when contented, he would leave. My grandpa was a hero He fought with all his ego Many policies for Africans   So, we would not be ruled with guns. My motherland is serene Nothing natural is ever obscene Bet my proposal with a dime Because a coin was introduced as a dime. I can sit here all day long Narrating the story thought wrong But I think the African way was live Exotic, indigenous characterized life. Beauty harbors the land Natural features like a band   Its someone’s dream away To visit Africa – the land far away. Born nurtured and blend My African style is a brand Ask them why they won’t wand because customs make it hard to blend. I run back to mama Answer and obeys without a murmur Living b

A Young and relentless pursuer

  A hazy mind wakes up to a day Chilly mornings seem a norm to stay Lots of thoughts flood a busy mind It's always hectic when waiting amidst chances.   Can a yawn serve to subside a desire? Tingling are the anticipations to sire When bonding the spiritual to physical The mind speculates being a bit mechanical.   Waiting, seeking, and amidst inventing Do you have an ideal way to destiny land? Seated, pimped, and rocking a chair away Thoughts flood and drown consciousness far away.   An imagination crop in wit for rebirth Certainly, it’s a rematch with much wrath Many times I create and beg for transition Still have the same response – wait from nature.   A vast and loads of mighty opportunities dawn avail Seeking a mind grows somber and fonder A promise never avail to a popper Someday a chance swiftly comes with a trail.   Illusions second imagination for success Who can say it is yet time to plant Pruning, watering, and tender

A reality beneath

  Once upon a time brings a day The world took charge and fate ruled Raising a son full of solace Life harbors a reality lost deep place.   Sitting, looking, and imaging A lonely soul fight tears from falling Nobody will ever decipher His heart’s darkness resembles cipher.   Nostalgia literature calls it Carry sweet memories away tight Imaginations, reflections, and predicting Life was sweeter with Mama nudging.   Anger lies deep under cute face Motivation evolve without a pace Frustration, loneliness feature realization Parental love not until resurrection.   Dreams in mind are tensely glazing Reflection of motivation still amazing A young mind holds on to a dream Someday will dawn and stream.   Poverty someone wrote was a teacher Didn’t scrutinize any even an enchanter Brought forth a great deal a lesson Pain in the heart is much to lessen.   I still look up and call The lord up there for us all Never to blame tragedy th
