    Dear Friend

    You are such a beautiful person
    A God's perfect creation
    With strong compassion
    Longing for collaboration.

    You've been my rock
    Ever since I fall to trap
    Life almost became crap
    Yet you lifted me with all your strap.

    You showed me strength
    Every time I'm drained
    No more to gain
    Then you appear once again.

    How will I ever repay you
    With all the things that you do
    All I can offer you
    Is my shoulder and ear if you want them too.

    Been Here Before

    someday soon

    we won’t remember this year

    the loss. the fears.

    and all of the tears

    the money lost

    the career, too

    the remote “un-learning”

    what do we do

     

    the killer cops

    who never stop

    to see us as human

    to prove they’re on top

    all because

    some don’t believe in facts

    with a president 

    that don’t have our backs

     

    but the will of the people

    is way too strong 

    we will survive

    and carry on

    this isn’t the worst 

    but far from the best

    this years struggles

    put us all to the test

     

    but remember this

    we have been 

    through so much more

    and lived to survive 

    dance on life’s floor

    soon

    It is as if


         
        the uncertain Future lies tensed in the rock cavity of Beating Hearts! In the throbbing supplications of petals, the Universe would be resurrected; Witnesses who adhered to the wounded human law were accepted as witnesses: Empathy for the unusual too! The merit of the computing community now is the privilege ?! When can they find treasure among the sobbing True Beads, if they have already hurt themselves in humility ?!
         
        Many times, the open mouth of everyday Being shores and gorges vibrates like a stretched rope, trembling: maybe he dreams of a cheap, worn-out knife, he easily cuts off his deep thread of life! Witnesses have long guessed: they’re not digging up the bumpy grave where they originally put it! - Insidious fools and syrups dressed in syrup are often just getting infected!

    Soulmate

    A soulmate is one,
    hard to find
    Never far in mind,
    you can feel deep within side,
    captivating soul and, mind
    Leaving you knowing,
    love will reside
    Souls encased and,
    intertwined,
    mutual respect, and
    understanding, full tide,
    unconditional,
    forever side by side.

    MIDNIGHT EXPRESS..

    By shadow of night, the midnight express,

    A mighty machine, designed to impress,

    With passengers gathered, safely on board,

    Into the distance, the mighty beast roared.
    ...

    All pistons pulsating, she thundered along,

    With steam creating a pressure so strong,

    Stoking the coal, like a phantom possessed,

    No time for the crew, in taking a rest
    ....

    Speeding through valleys, set on a course,

    Approaching a bridge, to carry her force,

    Passing by homes, with children asleep,

    Into the valleys, where rivers run deep.
    ....

    Gripping the rails, letting off steam,

    Power produced by Stevensons dream,

    Raging with fire, fulfilling her need,

    Racing through tunnels at maximum speed
    ....

    Nearing the city, her station in sight,

    Crowds await, as people alight,

    Camera lights flicker, passengers board,<...

    A mask to mute

     

    Freedom of speech 

    Is what they teach

     

    Yet they mask me

    Intending to cage me

     

    Claiming I will be protected 

    But rather I was tormented 

     

    Mask of lies 

    To cut all ties 

     

    Not masking up for plague 

    But for pretense to lure

     

    Speak not, they said

    On me, their eyes are laid

     

    My mouth may be caged 

    But my heart can't be caged

     

    Behind the disguised mask

    Lies tons of prepared task

     

    Willing to speak out I am! 

    Not intending to cause harm

     

    Ransacking my fragile heart

    Emerging from a piece of art

     

    Troubles are far gone

    For I shot them with a gun

    Courage versus comfort

    In times of challenge to confine,

    changes speak many sentences in rhyme.

    The deserving comfort to all one knows,

    depth of wishes and its protection vows.

    Courage takes the path unbeaten,

    resilient integrity repeating.

    Responsibilities is providing,

    great souls waves riding.

    The shadow is apparent but not existent,

    belonging to the soul returns persistence.

    The imperfect self from obscure image,

    in order, to realize divine knowledge.

    Evolution of relationship to become just,

    truth and courage in need of some fairy dust.

    Manifested tolerance is forgiveness,

    that love it is, which heals the heart relentless.

    Sweet and false politeness are imitation jewels,

    admiration shows itself by respect acknowledges.

    Glass

    Would you be fragile for me?

    For us, our love.

    Can't you see that I'm being too vulnerable?

    And I break, instead of we.

    It's not that fair that it has to be me.

    If you can't be fragile, then gentle,

    gentle like a foaming sea and my feet,

    at shore, the cold waters kissing me.

    Just please, don't hurt me anymore.

    I make myself apparent,

    and I make my chest transparent.

    I CAN'T BREATH

                      I  CAN'T BREATH 

    I shout out to Mother Africa
    But my voice has no where to go
    I have a lot to tell her kids in Africa
    But they all seems busy and ignore

     

    Again I shout out to mother Earth
    Asking if she can't see what am seeing 
    Or is she ignoring because she is safe
    While alone we are dying 

     

    I shout out to the universe " I can't Breath"
    But still none hears my plead.
    I tell them "am dying from Corona virus"
    But instead of saving me they are covering me with their dirty hands.
    My fellows hate this, but they all cowards,
    They can't stand for justice, cz they scared.
    Scared to lose what can't lose them..
    They appreciate of bei...
