    🖤FOREIGN LAND🖤

     

    Pores filled with distractions,
    our future
    Packed in determinations.
    A river surrounded by vouchers
    ,the foreign Land holds a better living 
    anyway😔.
    Heavy sweat on my torn clothing,
    blood Stings in my hands,I am in
     a foreign Land,
    Drenching slavery throughout
     the journey.We put on painted
     masks consumed by pain.Yet 
    still drag our 
    Feet back on track.

    We are nolonger identified by our 
    names, The rights long lost as we 
    crossed the river Valley.I am in a foreign
     Land,Will I ever see my family again??
    Each day I blot out oppressions as I
     decipher the crumpled words,a bunch of 
    critics in my position,It's okay, I muffle the 
    anger.

    Take me home where my heart 
    and soul rightfully belong.I am
     in a foreign,where...

    The Frown


    I wake up at a breezing morning,the sky 
    Promising me another day without you.
    Myhead still  bruised,I crawl back on my
     bed,clock, counting down my days I Frown

    again in yearn, Perhaps it might be the end.

    Look at me Babe,tell me what you see,
    Tell me what you hover about in sorrow?
    The invisibility never crushed.My breath 
    Slowly reaches its deadline.I crave for 
    another chance, a purpose upon my one.
    Just one more and I am gone.

    And today?With an hour left upon the 
    dead
    Silence.I reach out to you,I love you,
    I will miss miss you,the words stuck 
    on my 
    Throat.Till we meet again Babe,the
     next life
    Never promised,the second time never 
    known.A frown on my face and I am gone
    Goodbye Babe....

    His Calling 🌍🦅

     

    If he ain't revealed to many,is he even alive?
    My head lifted high,my days are
    Numbered I toss and turn, suddenly
    The world falls off beneath my feet 
    And I can hardly feel myself.Failure 
    Taunts me ,I have had enough already💆🏾‍♀️!

    I hear him Calling out my name,the 
    Samuel I can't fathom and like Jonah?
    I frequently hide from the world.I am
    Only the Gideon to this community
    Anyway, unworthy of the fight,the victory
    Far from achievement.Hold my hand child
    And walk with me,He calls out to me.
    And just when I think I hear him no more.
    Failure,fear, obnoxious and deceit bring me 
    Back to my knees.The Goliath on my way,
    Spares no joy in me😒🍃.

    I keep running away,a burning bush ease my sins,
    walk me through this Journey,Israel 
    A land of slavery have slaug...

    Torture

    Torture🦋🖤🌊.

     

    Days have flown,when only love could silence the hunger and starvation in me.The world has galloped all the happiness we spent with no anxiety.Time kept blinding me ,I could barely see the storm on my way.The future held torture,I bleed mercilessly by the day.Hold my hand for a hole on my journey is deeper.

     

    The words stuck on my throat burn my tongue I can hardly giggle.The wound in my heart has widened I seldomly arsuge the hurt.All the third people in between,the silence in the room,the affectionless conversations keep cutting me severely.Let me go,for am locked up in this vicious darkness.Let me go for this world is full of exhaustion and torture.

     

    Tears flow bitterly,I can barely recognize myself.The crushed beauty,the destroyed pride,the deprived joy,the vague I can't withstand.Let me go,for this torture is eternal💔🚶😓

    Smile again today

     

    Today I sigh,it might be the end.Yesterday
    Held brutal moments,I just can't mend.The
    Future is mysterious,clear the niggling doubts
    In my mind.These tears on my cheeks have

    flown enough.Grab my hand,the split up I can't fathom.

    I search for you in crowds and wonder where I 
    Could really be now 🤕🍂.I refuse🙌to be 
    trapped in a tower again.Perhaps it's time to 
    Embrace change and walk through the valley.
    The questions flashing the alleviated somber 
    Have aggravated the jeopardy.I carry a heavy 
    Burden on my shoulder.Yet as I fail to control
    My past.I turn back against futility.Leave my
    Worries on the shore line.ITS TIME TO SMILE
    AGAIN.

    And when the road I am trudging seems all uphill
    ,When the funds are low and the downfalls are high
    And all I want to do is smile but I have to sigh.I...
