Who shall give me the best advice
When everyone is minding their own business.
Who remembers an orphan like me with no guidance?
I shall not even beg for finance
For I am seen as too lazy
Yet no one gave me an opportunity to work
The recycle bin is my canteen
I tell people I am collecting plastic to recycle
When I am there to serve my stomach
Poverty gives me no dignity
I have been wondering what gives me sanity
But I have to be insane to survive the next day.
The street has become my home.
Some preachers feel pity for me
And even tell God to bless me
But I wonder if their prayers
Will be answered for me.
Now used to the pain like daily bread
Sometimes I wish to be dead
For the life I am living is so bad.
Surrender
If I dont deserve love
Don’t mock me
Just leave me alone
In the misery
Of my own company
If I deserve pain
Dont torture me
Just give me no purpose
And I will carry that emptiness
To my grave.
If I am to die
Dont give me a rope
To hang myself
I rather be sent
Silently into deep slumber.
My Queen
Action speaks louder than words
But if I speak only through action
There will be a shortfall in communication
So let me pour my heart on you
For I have more than a bucket
Of feelings for you.
If I say I will love you forever
You wouldn’t believe it
But hear from me darling
I dont make promises,
I make principles.
I already know your flaws.
You sometimes pause
As if you are frozen
But from the day we met,
That flaw made it possible
For me to break the ice.
I know love is unpredictable like a dice
But nomatter which side you turn to,
I will love you the same.
Can you be patient
To see what I can give
Before you leave.
In terms of love
I am proudly a king
I have always been here
To make you my queen
And I want to give you
The love you have never seen.
My Life for you
The world say I am crazy.
They defined me well
For I dont know why
I dont care about my life
As much as I care about yours.
Definitely, I must be insane
For I don’t care about my own pain.
As long I see a smile on your face.
Do me a favour of staying happy
For me to count my sacrifice worth
This will give a relevance to my birth
And a legacy after my death.
40
Ever since I started counting numbers
There is a mystery behind 40.
They say life begins at 40
And if you want to campaign as President
The minimum requirement will be 40.
As if it was enough
It rang a bell reading biblical scripts.
In the days of Noah it rained 40 days and 40 nights,
Until it came to Moses and Elijah spending 40 days with God,
Israelites took 40 years to reach Canaan.
Jesus came to close the chapter spending 40 days and 40 nights in the wilderness.
Maybe I should multiply everything I do by 40.
Chemistry
I am was not a fan of love
And still wonder how our hearts collided,
“Never say never” I was perfectly reminded
I rolled a stone on love with ignorance,
Betrayals made love of no importance
The shield I conjured on my heart was not strong,
I was addicted to love going wrong.
I no longer compress my feelings anymore.
You murdered my ignorance with innocence,
Loving me for who I am like a freak,
It was hard accepting you were making me weak.
Here I am falling again and again
Like a popular song on repeat mode.
I am enjoying the love circle geometry,
Help me bury the hate I had at the cemetery,
For I cant let go of this love chemistry.
My beloved son
A woman is a packaged problem
But you will never know until you open one,
Yet inside that package is what you want.
The ladder for a man never ends,
Left, right and centre are demands
Your responsibility is standing your ground.
Everyday is a battle but chose to win the war,
The biggest war is not in the world but in you,
You can only give up in your grave
For the destiny of manhood is already pre-determined.
Son! I know you are grown up now,
Smile like you know no sorrow
Always hope for a better tomorrow.
Work hard for I won’t be always there for you,
The weight of my family has always been mine
When you start yours the weight is yours.
Enjoy life like a child and be responsible for consequences like an adult,
This is what only separates the wise from fools.
I am sorry Dad
I am sorry Dad
You once told me
Women are 99 problems
And told me to add half on top
And being careful
Not to hang on a rope.
Drama is truly a woman’s shop.
I am sorry Dad I didn’t listen.
You once told me
A woman can be anything
When she wants to get married.
I took a demon for an angel,
Took darkness for a candle.
I am sorry I didn’t listen.
You once told me
Its hard being a man
For I had to watch and learn.
A man is loved when strong
And hated when weak.
I am sorry Dad I didn’t listen.
You once told me
That I will understand
When I become a Dad.
All along I thought you were mad
I always realise it when I am sad.
I am sorry Dad I didn’t listen.
You once said nothing
When you looked at me.
I didn’t notice the wisdom
In your silence.
Now I see relevance
In your absence.
I am sorry dad I didn’t notice.
You once told me
That you were training me
To be the best expecting the worst.
I hate the fact that you were right
And you are not here anymore.
I am sorry Dad I didn’t listen.
Mesmerised
I know I am too principled
But I allowed you to become my addiction,
You are something far from fiction
Maybe I should start counting my blessings,
First of all there is you,
Second there is also you
And third it still remains you.
I can count you in multiplication
For you are more to my satisfaction.
You are the best decision I ever made
The love you give, I am well fed.
You are a goddess to my heart
My mind always paint your image in art
For you are a definition of what I desired
Displaying a character that I admired.
Are there any words in the dictionary left
For me to tell you that I love you
Or should I emphasize with sign language.
You are special
You are Special
While you looking for a guy
Who makes you feel special
Just know that I am not that guy.
I don’t have to make you feel it
Because you are already special.
I can’t make you a Queen
You already a Queen.
Even if it takes centuries
For you to know that.
If someone treats you like trash
You can be affected
For you are waiting for
someone to make you feel special.
Let me tell you this ladies,
If you don’t find that someone
Who makes you feel special
You will forever be bitter.
Personally I don’t want a woman
To convince she is Queen.
She should be Queen or at least be a Princess
If you don’t see yourself as royal
Its not any man’s job to make you royal.
As a woman have standards.
If I see a woman who values herself
I am bound to value her too.
# You are a Queen, You are Special.
It was never a milestone you could chase
