It's a pattern of soulA movement of drumsTranscending through feetNurtured with hipsAnd glorified by the sway of my hands It's a whisper of warStomping through beats, heart beatsTraversing spaceGathering limbsAnd tormenting waists It's a tinkling of melodiesHumbling heartsBreaking cursesBreeding peaceAnd birthing tales, tales of surrender It's a whining of thoughtsTrembling with doubtUnhinged and regalAs the …

Sometimes I yearn,What for?Even I do not knowYet the swirling with in growsDay by dayIt elongatesBlinking at the hopelessnessAnd groaning with lonelinessSometimes I hurtFrom what?I am certain it's plentyA list would not exhaust it allYet a restlessness ensuesDay by day It criesLonging for freedomAnd weeping for changeSometimes I hopeFor a life of certaintyA time where …
TEARS IN MY SOUL…
My heart feels so heavyEverything has lost its gloryIf you could only walk in my shoes,You would see the anger withinThe despair your words have brought meWords you wielded without careNot even minding the hurt that ensued in their pathYet you sat back and spewed that hateThunder would have struck me dead Here I am, …
ANGUISH OF DREAMS…
As my mind wanders, Clouded like the sand at sea, Seeking the reign of birds, And the tremble of leaves, The dreams within weep with sadness, Drenched in doubts of the morrow, Encased in promises of the soul, To live with nothing but joy.
OBLIVION OF FATE…
On the floor, she lay,Drenched in fear,Grasping for air,And quivering against the piercing cold.

BROKEN DREAMS…
At the Heights of Dawn is where we all are. Naked in thoughts, Naive in mind, And terrified at Heart. The closer we are to what makes us we, And lesser we feel contented to be Who we are MEANT TO BE.
PLIGHT OF AN AFRICAN WOMAN…
The birds sing when she is born. Babies cry when she joins the gods. Toiling is all she knows For life teaches her nothing else. The sun shines. And the clouds mourn. Seasons come, And Seasons go. Yet for her, The days are nothing but the same. She smiles through the tears, And laughs through …
