Nephew
Dear Nephew
One day you will grow and understand
That Grandma and I never did you no wrong
I know you will be an incredible man and not to mention a humble and honest husband.
Am sorry that your dad chose not to be there for you and am sorry I may not always be there too, am sorry your mom and I cant get along ,we both have our reasons and I cant give you the explanation.
One day you will know and you will choose who to blame and no matter what just know aunty will love you the same.
I cant take responsibility for your dad's rejection and I cant apologize to...

Depression
Dont know how to put these feelings into words anymore.
Everyone i ever loved just walked through the door.
I move from my bed
Am pacing the floor
I gave all of my heart and still they wanted more.
Am loosing my mind
I hate mankind
The way am feeling cannot be defined.
Am trying not to hear these voice in my head
And trying! but depression wants me dead.
Just one cut they say, the pain will all go away, just one pill, i cant keep still these stupid voices are forcing me to kill.
I am lost! and found by darkness
I am a mess...
Everyone i ever loved just walked through the door.

My First love
Young fragile hearts without real understanding not knowing this world is constantly changing.
Promise is a comfort to a fool is what they say , Just like the fool i was when he said he'll always stay.
There was an undescribable feeling in his first kiss i skipped along enjoying my bliss.
Have never done drugs but i was high on you , you had me feeling invincible.
It was a crazy little poem for a naive little girl that made this young boy change her world.
He said if i was a duck and you were a duck every duck you duck i give you a fuck , i giggled as i read that...

Just another one
It's like thunder and lightening he hit my heart without warning, the intensity of his touch, his kisses made me blush I never knew I could love another man so much.
I got in so deep, without thinking of the consequences that karma was indeed a creeping bitch.
I left a heart filled with space to be in his , which was already so full.
I became an option and he became confused but whatever the outcome this man will never loose.
He promise he wont leave me, neither will he leave her and now I find my self in the midst of a war
I submit myself to him as if he was my...

Live
Who are you?
what are you?
how different are you?
Are you black?
Are you white?
Do you bleach your skin to look light and do you belive that only your cultural beliefs are right?
Are you straight?
Are you gay ?
Do you just love people anyway?
Are you afraid of being misjudged by the things you wanna say?
Do you believe in God, idols or the devil?
Do you believe that there's a difference between good and evil?
Freedom they say but are we really free ?when we cant really live how we want to or be who we wanna be
we fight to...

Incomprehensible
I am never afraid of being in the dark for
Even in the light I am still unnoticeable I dont mind my solitude sometimes even my own voice is too loud can you imagine how crazy I feel in the midst of a crowd.
They cut me I dont bleed
They killed me still I breathe
They called me a loner but myself is all I need.
Am bullet proof with my sociopathic mentality I walk as if these heels have immortality
Am one of a kind I mostly speak in my mind for if I speak out they say am unkind
Fear is madness so I wonder if it me am a caged bird but am also free we...

Will he love me
He listens but dont hear
He looks but dont see
I feel like he chose me like he chose his jewelry, Beautiful but very, very expensive.
He can be very sweet but also very discrete, people stares at us oddly as we walk on the street.
I stick around like glue with a thought that this its still new and a self motivation
(Girl he'll accept the real you)
I love this this man I see his potential
But the question still lingers is the feeling mutual.
Am I too greedy, do I want too much, will I feel electric waves a year later with every touch ...

Mind battle
Who am I
Strange question one might ask,
How insane can one be to ask a question like that about ones self.
It's the strange questions of life that makes you wonder about belonging.
At a young stage in life they teach you to sing
I am a promise, a promise to be
I am a promise with a capital P
I am a great big bundle of potentiality
But What happens when you feel like you are not one of those positive P's
And you start singing I am a problem.
Looking in the mirror at yourself you see a prisoner, imprisoned by oneself.
Your mates...

God
Thy word have i hid in my heart that i might not sin against thee.
You are the solid rock on which i stand, omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent the mighty one.
My healer, deliverer, the great i am
My help, my strength in the darkest storm.
Saviour! i need thee, oh i need thee
All caring, protector you never leave me,
The air i breathe, the lens in my sight the still voice in my head telling me to do right to worship you i live , to live i worship you, nothing is impossible for you to do.
Lily of the valley, my bright and morning star Jesus i love you...

survival
Survival ! its a definate choice it's what everyone needs but how do we really stay alive .
cleaning those pit holes, dancing on those poles ,we live for today knowing not what the future hoĺds.
Everyone counts, every life matter but do we set a stable foundation for our sons and daughter.
Do we teach them to pray and wait on the Lord or do we put them out when times get hard.
what do you give to get what you want
what did you really do to get where you are, how many obstacles have you faced ,how may dangers still awaits,
