23/M/Kenya Living on the edges of life / Seating comfortable on the seat of life / He who is afraid knows none.
Speak of truth Not what either passive it as Beliefs surely influence what to believe Sticking to the stories told But questioning their integrity of the same Cancels the possibility of longevity Different version imminently changes your truth If I lie I'm a liar Probably espionage to the Government But if the same lied to me then that's propaganda At times the understanding is paramount At most it is not even necessary If my predicament questions my loyalty, Then it won't turn much sense for both to starve so to see who's loyalty deepens It's wise to detach from those who's misfortunes and unlucky always follows their path.

Speak
I forgive myself... For the eternity chasing in disguise All the secret desires into the abyss Into a hole I jumped never to be rescued Decisions made solely to save self but instead drowned others Criss-cross paths and stepped on thier shoes even though they deserve Mentor with guilt Advised with second thoughts Not listening to my gut feeling; If so I wouldn't be putting pen to paper for this I forgave myself... For forgiving them Falling for retribution in my anger felt Building bridges instead of walls for now they complain not having enough access Ate from the same plate they poisoned for both to suffer Drunk from the same well as well I'll forgive self hastily But forget not eternity.

Forgiving
Given a lemon make a lemonade instead Life throws up and you have to feed from it Calling it a favour or count yourself lucky If a name is a must Give it your loyalty And a cool shade of betrayal it echoes back In the shadows of darkness some you didn't know when or where; You got to the point Point to you the light at the end of the tunnel Believing in it you have Or else let your hope die before your hands Cold and dry nothing to feed from And from the minute the hand gives you a minute Never for you to account for one But an explanation you owe to them Much to whom and much was giveth, they say But to some it's what much they have to take, I would say Call it greed, I call it optimism.

Good Again
Lay down the plans for the future Future I'm into and I embrace it A good vision is to exploit Dreams so real I mistake for de ja vuu Look all up in the sky and it looks good Keep my face up the sun and the shadows fall back So, I'm keep my eyes to the sky Plans He only knows when and where But Imma keep the hope Walk with dignity and not erase the foot steps I'm a soldier of wars Wars I won and I never knew how or when.

Untitled
Past the roads that read danger Into the choices I made to the exit that didn't exist Past the days the moon met the sun When the sun touched the sea floor Floating its rays upon the fishers at dawn Search till I see the faces that never was Blackout on the things I went hard on Never despite their prayers to my creater Survive their crusade for bad blood Trip into the oblivion only them who wished never to fall into...

Thoughts
Morning of the light Came amid the chaos of darkness No one knew it's importance since it's disappearance Now the warmth feels more satisfying No one belonged to the ages of time To light up paths for others was unheard To sacrifice self for the pain you'll feel once To betray your trust in crossing the bridges for vowed not to Walk into the darkness amid the stories told of creepy souls It's a path You had to take So you oblige For this were the trails walked with ease

UNTITLED
I'm in for the eternity life promises The agile raising sun gives new hope Every second the hand gives me a minute Justifies the will this universe entrusts So I put my ego aside and sit with my trust Untill the earth comes to its stillness I'm for change, vigorous change That which drains energy to the core but left with enough strength to spot on Sorrow not to blind my sight, and Screams so loud not to hear the voices that lead me from the abyss To now this sledge hammer before me Then to the jungle up next, they say To take all the work you laid on Some that were a golden touch Some that inflicted curses, not to mention the words that burned houses to their roots Warm your feet from the ashes for this is your home now.

AFTERNOON
The last step of a lost son gone, Never left for him to get lost Just an open window; he saw and jumped in In to the world but out of his captivity Not thinking secondly of what awaits the other side Either way he was ready to fight the beast Or tame the cat: he was ready for the unkown The thought of existance beyond the walls that he confined triggered his fear to strike the match and the search was on The walk into the dark shivered his body wet His eyes glowed and his sense not sensitive yet Like a bird in a cage nothing to nest Like a mind full of dreams I can't chase Chase on the lies that made sense so you oblige The truth that I lie on and made my bed to rest on Truth is what I know now Truth was wat I perceived when I knew none To what's belief and what's wrong For what's lust is not the road for it to be long.

BOY
Feed into the dogs the flesh of hope Stumble on little pieces of peace at hand Crush onto thee feet that steps softs Fight like underdogs unleashed Lights out and darkness came One light reflective And a thousand stars Fight to be true because weak is wicked Jab to demons that hardly knew the souls to keep And those to **** instant without jury. Got all to ask, but this are just nightless thoughts at sleep. I mean this are just sleeples thoughts at night.

NIGHT
It was easy to lie It was easy to tell off and die Sorrows but happiness was the plate to dine on Dine into the cold the world curved me to ever be It was easy to tell off but lie not It was easy to sad off and smile Smile from the faces of death, a friend, so I embrace it It wasn't easy to go down on my knees and pray It was easy to throw my faith into the dungeons for the prey Fight back my misfortunes that I lay Succeed and call it luck. It wasn't easy To lack and **** at everything I touch, To let off this feelings and get hard Numb from the pain felt because this pain wasn't gain To feel the loss now that I never thought It could be, me To fill this trash can with pieces that each sentence never satisfied Each word that flashed so fast not to contemplate the goodness of it Rogue and write never brought peace Smile and dine never filled the stomach Hard and fcku never felt in the womb... It was easy to say, it wasn't easy to feel Waiting to surprise like a tick tock bomb Pleasure to **** the smile in their faces Surpass their innocence with guilt Stumble on their hearts never to see the goodness of it....
