🖤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 ðŸŒðŸ¦…
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💆ðŸ¾â™€ï¸!
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😒ðŸƒ.
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 🤕ðŸ‚.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...
