Do not doubt my love

-
Why do you doubt my love?
Truly, I love you and you should know that
To my heart, you are the treasure it longs to keep
Without you, the void cannot be filled
To my heart, your love is all it knows and seeks
Without you, my heart cannot be fulfilled
How do I describe my love?
I love you with the love that cannot be described
But so you know, I love you with the deepest emotions
And with strong affections and yearnings, I love thee
Just how much do I love you?
I love you with the love that cannot be measured
But so you know, I love you to the deepest depth,
To the widest width and the highest height
To my heart your love is delightful except it hurts
For it knows not the coldness and hotness it brings to my heart
Your love consumes me but my heart has made a vow to thee
To love you only and to die of your dear love.

All I want is you

-
When suddenly my heart misses a beat Surely I know you are close by I feel so restless until I take a seat And only hope to see you pass by This is not what I want, all I want is you Once I see you my heart is revived It brings so much joy I can’t even describe Only to leave me wondering how others have survived For surely, there is no remedy in what they prescribe This is not what I want, all I want is you Constantly fond memories of us invade my thought The most wonderful, being the trip to Dakar I didn’t think we would come to a naught After all the efforts to have come this far Surely,  this is not what I want.  All I want is you

Pray with me

-
Image
Please help me to pray So I am not led astray For I want to do what is right But I always lose the fight Against the will of the flesh And my soul, left in distress Truly, I am in need of repentance To let go of my vengeance To turn from the path of evil To seek the light and reject the devil And I admit I need the Lord To guide my ways in this world To give me the might and the will To flee from every sin, evil or ill To please Him and not mankind To show love to all and be kind To share His word of truth and light And to bring the lost into His fold aright.

Hold Your Judgement

-
I may be just that child Who lives in the town Where school dropouts reign But I am not a truant I may be just that child Who lives in that suburb Where majority live by begging But I am not a beggar I may just be that boy Who lives in the street Where all heinous crimes are rife But I am not a criminal I may just be that boy Who lives in the ghetto Where every hard drug is sold But I am not a drug user I may just be that boy Who lives in the slum Where  ex-convicts abound But I am not a jailbird I may be just that girl Who lives near that brothel Where every sex worker began But I am not a prostitute I may be just that girl Who enters that clinic Where every pregnancy is aborted But I am not an abortee Sometimes circumstances thrust people into situations and cast a shadow that is not true of their real selves. Until you zoom in and zoom out the images you have, hold your judgement!

Giving me that Living water

-
My soul is thirsting Thirsting only for that water That sweet water from the sanctuary Give me that water that I may drink of it For I have drunk of many waters Yet my thirst remains unquenched I need that fresh water to quench my thirst That living water from the right side of the temple For I have heard it being said of it Anywhere that water flows life is revived That living water stirs up stagnant waters That sweet water makes dead fishes swim That welling water heals the sick Give me that spring water that never dries I need that fountain of eternal life That I may thirst no more

Set your mind free

-
Image
Set your mind free Bounded up in chains, But the hope of freedom lingers. For the soul that perseveres, Victory is the crown. To throw up the shackles, The toil of blood remains. Behold the taste of freedom! And forge ahead, for it is within reach. The sky is not always blue. That is the inspiration. Between the boundaries of pain, A breeze of comfort can be felt. To walk a free man, to get the crown, The phobia must be conquered. No need to look for the enemy. Suppress the accuser from within, Begin with yourself; set your mind free. For it is the repertoire of success and defeat. Begin with yourself

Mama's Moments

-
Image
Mama has her own moments Moments she keeps to herself Dejected and betrayed Moments that become ours too Moments we hide in our rooms Afraid and confused Sometimes they are short and don't last But we know she has had her moments And only believe there were no blast But other times, just others times Mama's moments are horrific For when we hear the door slammed, Our hearts leap for mama in anguish For then, the merciless beast arrives He yells  angrily and strikes He heartlessly tortures and she screams Helplessly,  she endures and pleads We panic and shudder to death Hopelessly we look on in fright As the beast brutally satisfies his ego Dear Lord, please end this- we pray Be merciful and save mama from the beast

Our shame, His cross

-

For this reason He was born To reconcile men to His Father Abandoned His glory above Down to earth He came To bear the cross of men To define His Father’s love A love so strong to sacrifice Him He opened wide His gates To receive all who came to Him Embraced even prostitutes and tax collectors Sat at table to eat with them To prove He came for their sake Giving them a sense of His Father’s love He brought comfort to the wearied He healed the sick and the lame He brought the dead back to life He set the oppressed free To the hopeless He gave hope Yet they did not accept Him To them He was only the carpenter’s son His teachings pricked their consciences But they hardened their hearts His miracles baffled them But they could not be bordered Instead some linked Him to Beelzebub And others still requested from Him a sign One by one they went to Him To test and to trap Him with their questions One by one he sent them away Setting them straight with His a...

An Ode to my Mother

-
Being a mother is a blessing And being a mother is a responsibility Being a mother is a challenge And being a mother is a choice So thank you mother for choosing me For the decision to keep me For the rent free stay in your womb And all it accompanied inconveniences Most especially, the distortion to your physique Thank you mother for accepting me For loving me though you knew me not For obeying my dictates and protecting me Ensuring at all times that I was safe Risking your own life to give me life Thank you mother for bringing me into this world For nurturing me from infancy through to adulthood For being there  when all others give up on me Encouraging me and turning me into who  I am today Equipping me with the essences of life Thank you mother for being my mother If I ever caused you pain or ever caused you regrets If you ever doubted your competence as a mother Forgive me mother.
