POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
WHISPERS UNDER MOONLIGHT
Under the silver moon’s soft, shimmering grace,
By a crackling bonfire’s warm embrace,
We stand together, hearts a hesitant dance,
In this night of cold, where love takes its chance.
The sea whispers secrets, ancient and wise,
In the language of waves, under starry skies,
As uncertainty lingers, our hearts do confess,
The love we both want, yet dare not caress.
But in the fire’s glow, our souls take flight,
Burning with longing, in the cold of the night,
Your eyes, like stars, in the midnight’s domain,
Draw me in closer, like...

We stand together, hearts a hesitant dance,

The love we both want, yet dare not caress.
But in the fire’s glow, our souls take flight,
Burning with longing, in the cold of the night,
Your eyes, like stars, in the midnight’s domain,
Draw me in closer, like...

CHOSEN LOVE
In the book of fate, our pages intertwine,
Destiny’s design, a path uniquely designed,
We stand on the edge of a world unknown,
In our hearts, a connection, brightly shone.
Destiny has whispered, "You both belong,"
In the story of us, we’ll grow strong,
Yet the choice is ours, to seize this chance,
To let our love flourish, to dance our romance.
I’ll gift you attention, a love that’s so true,
Care and laughter, protection from storms we’ll pass through,
And in return, I hope you’ll simply be you,
Glowing, amazing, in...

Think!
In the quiet of love's gentle scream,
Sacrifice and selflessness find rest.
In choices made, our hearts define,
The beauty and depth of love's design.
Yet love can be a tempest, it's true,
A storm that tests, a sky turned blue.
But when reciprocated, it's a radiant bloom,
A simple, profound, and endless boon.

Confusion
love's enigma, I'm lost in a haze,
Confusion and longing, like an endless maze.
Falling in love, a sweet, dizzying spell,
Yet staying in love, the tale I long to tell.
Through the chaos and doubt, I still search,
Love's embrace, my heart can't resist.
I yearn for its depths, its highs and its grace,
In the dance of love, I find my place.
Confusion and longing, like an endless maze.
Falling in love, a sweet, dizzying spell,
Yet staying in love, the tale I long to tell.
Through the chaos and doubt, I still search,
Love's embrace, my heart can't resist.
I yearn for its depths, its highs and its grace,
In the dance of love, I find my place.

Speak with me
Speak with me
I understand your language
I don't speak it
Speak with me
I want to listen
I can't hear
Speak with me
I feel it
I don't have to hear
Speak with your eyes
Shout with your smile
Does the language matter?
I hear you loud and clear
Speak with me
Speak my language
Speak Joy
Speak peace
Speak love
Speak with me
I want to listen
I cant hear
Speak our language
Speak sincerity
Speak truth
I can hear you...
I understand your language
I don't speak it
Speak with me
I want to listen
I can't hear

I feel it
I don't have to hear
Speak with your eyes
Shout with your smile
Does the language matter?
I hear you loud and clear
Speak with me
Speak my language
Speak Joy
Speak peace
Speak love
Speak with me
I want to listen
I cant hear
Speak our language
Speak sincerity
Speak truth
I can hear you...

False prophets
Sleep and wake in fear
Spirits cause everything
Consultations and exultation to a deaf God
Fast and pray lest you fail
God is hardest to please
God is dead to us
We buried him in ignorance
False prophets - our ancestors danced with them
False prophets - our parents fell victim
False prophets - we are enslaved
I see this
I see that
Our demons never fight
The salt and oil we douse at midnight
They protect us
False prophets- we listened
False prophets- we believed
False prophets-...

The Meaning
The joy of losing, the pain of having
The peace in denial, the wrath of acceptance
The meaning is in the depth of confusion
Paved with pretence and bad action
How do you know when its real?
The echoes that never come to
Loud in my thought- almost in my grasp,
but never materialises
The meaning is in the depth of confusion
Thoughts unseen manifests in character felt
How do you know when your mind is playing tricks on you?
Lips express desire
Heart is non committal
The hope that promises tomorrow, ...
The peace in denial, the wrath of acceptance
The meaning is in the depth of confusion
Paved with pretence and bad action
How do you know when its real?
The echoes that never come to
Loud in my thought- almost in my grasp,
but never materialises
The meaning is in the depth of confusion
Thoughts unseen manifests in character felt
How do you know when your mind is playing tricks on you?
Lips express desire
Heart is non committal
The hope that promises tomorrow, ...

Home- Our Home
Chained to good morals
a people lost on the journey to freedom
Foresight enslaved to greed
who reaches first- a prevalent goal
Radical Leadership
a matter of course
Foresight enslaved to greed
evidence in the body parts traded for power
A country crippled by peace
a people enslaved by oppression
Manipulative dependence
just plant, taxes will fertilize
Wake up to the voices of the clever
We sit by our luggage before a dead sea
deceived by the same people we gave seat

Smile-V
At the mercy of your smile
My flat jokes wile
Gentle waters smile
below, waves of currents rile
The hungry smiles
Joke knows not bile
Unburden my soul
bless my spirit with a smile.

LUCKY BIRD
Lying helpless in grace
Beauty buried in clouded thoughts
Stunning resplendency glowing in a thick fog
Eyes are the windows to love
Character glues the hinges
Love me, love me your heart screams
Fear triumph in joy
The answer is the problem
Fake is real
Real is false
Lucky bird tweeting in the dark
Find solace in the echo
Some answered the call and fell
Hold on to your guns and hope
Till another echo reaches you
Lucky bird in the dark.

Hold on to your guns and hope
Till another echo reaches you

Unshaken
That which is created and known
That which is unknown but created
The word created through Him
all that is ephemeral.
Our hearts and mind appreciate
that which our eyes behold.
The lost longs for the hidden but revealed.
The word created without Him all that is everlasting.
Visible through faith
that which is known before all but unknown after all.
Key to knowledge that surpasses is foolish to the wise
but
truth to the unshaken well within.
That which is unknown but created

that which is known before all but unknown after all.

but
truth to the unshaken well within.

HOMELESS
Shrewd enough to pick a purse
To feed a mouth sheltered under a rain of curse.
Empty bottles and opponent as partners
The fruit of a faint love
Now mine to pick.
Sleep and wake to the sour taste of poverty
Cure in the heart of men that walk the street
Too good to smile at the tartered shirt
Too quick to point our direction
Too heavy a baggage to carry
Too light the burden I offload
Ran back to my sheltered nest
Broken bottles and a red eyed woman
From whence i came
To this world of pain
Opponents as...
To feed a mouth sheltered under a rain of curse.
Empty bottles and opponent as partners
The fruit of a faint love
Now mine to pick.

Too quick to point our direction
Too heavy a baggage to carry
Too light the burden I offload
Ran back to my sheltered nest
Broken bottles and a red eyed woman
From whence i came
To this world of pain
