M ironical sarcasm
Debris floating above the waters;  Life has tossed me up and down My life is in shams . So far from being perfect , i am choking , no more ! no more ! I can't take it. My ears have listened to so many voices; Voices that fed my innocent soul with venom. My eyes have seen, trust me i have seen and i have asked and asked myself where did sin. So broken and shattered , everything was so tattered and nothing mattered. So broken and in despair, nothing could revive this dying soul i was beyond repair. I have pushed ,  prayed but nothing happened This troubles seem never ending But one thing that kept me going is the promise, the hope of glory The spirit kept quickening me so I kept going The light

Things Fall Apart
It was one of the usual sleepless and trouble filled nights ; tossing and turning on my sweat drenched mattress in the room with my friend. Thinking of life and my troubles as always but there was something different this time around , instead of cracking my brains to force situations to work through, gnashing and feeling pains in my heart , I rate her was feeling self pity; I was totally broken . I took a look back , realized how long it was that I was stuck at one place ; a very uncomfortable and pain-filled position, and looking at how far my age mates, class mates, and even those behind me have gone, and how all I wanted was to also go to school and learn, but there was just no way to , my spirit started crying and soon my physical man started too. I sobbed quietly but I was so broken I was going to cry out . So I ran out of the room and went out to sit by the side of the road . With heavy jaws and tears, I cried out but I couldn’t hear myself because the pain had consumed all of my energy. I tried to pray but I just couldn’t find the words to say. So I continued staring into the skies for a while ; gathered a little energy and the only words the cane faintly out of my mouth was “God why?” ... i repeated it over a while and I broke into tears again because all hope was lost, it was all darkness around and there wasn’t a trace of a footprint to follow . There was this voice deep inside of me yearning to be heard; a cry for help but it lacked the energy to catapult it. I thought of ending it all but I realized I didn’t even have the courage to . Life ; so unfair ! I needed help and I still do !!! I wish Someone hears my cry and comes to help because I’m sinking and fast

This Holy Book Of ancient words long preserved Words of prophecies written and waiting to be fulfilled Guiding our lives on the path of eternal glory. This Holy Book For a time confused me Made me so broken and disappointed Even sometimes I couldn't help but cry. But This Holy Book Promises of greatness and good things Which is for me through Christ So i wonder, if all I need is Christ ? This Holy Book I open and flip through its pages when I'm broken In despair I hope for an uplifting It is my counsel. This Holy Book When I feel all is over and done, When the storms of life are against me, It is my refuge. This Holy Book It is all I need for it is light unto my path, In it lies deep things hidden from Man Great wisdom made known to man by the spirit. This Holy Book ; When the earth shakes and mountains  fall, When the pillars of the earth can not hold anymore , When the skies and it's inhabitants are no more, Shall forever stand This Holy Book Makes known the greatness of our Lord. His everlasting mercies and love, Compassion and faithfulness, Holy is His name This Holy Book I will ever cling to and never let go In times of trouble, i will hold to my heart I will confess it's words everyday For I love my bible

This Holy Book
Heaven's gates break open As divinely annointed hands fell on us Grace flowed from above Adorning a congregation of youths gathered in love Spirit broke out Yolks broke off Worshipping in his glory Our beauty in the beauty of his holiness Clouds gathered causing a down pour; As the aroma of worship rose to heaven. Angels descended into our midst ; His presence was come. A summer well spent reviving our spirit man; Feeding our soul with the word in axhortations. Camp is over and we all head home With a living stream flowing in us... Hallelujah ! Hallelujah !

I DO
O, how much more doth beauty beauteous seem By that sweet ornament which truth doth give ! The rose looks fair , but fairer we it deem For that sweet odour which doth in it live A perfumed tincture of the roses hang on such thorns and play a wantonly When spring's breath their masked buds pop open But for their virtue , only is their show They live unwoo'd and unrespected fade Of their sweet deaths are sweetest odours made And so beauteous and lovely sister Not marble nor the gilded monuments of Queens shall outlive this powerful rhyme But you shall shine bright in this contents Than unswept stone , besmear'd with sluttish time When the wasteful tides of life shall legacies overturn, And broils root out the work of masonry The living record of your memory Gainst death and all oblivious emmity Your good works shall still find room even in the eyes of strangers So even till the judgement that yourself arise, You live in this and dwell in thy brother's heart and eyes Happy Birthday Sister !

Few words for her
It passed away soo quickly So perfect it seemed that I nearly thought it was meant to be forever Funny huh !!! They were perfections on their own Maybe a little more frequent roses Maybe a walk on the roof tops might just be the right ingredients to make it last Who knows ?

Happy Birthday FES
Sundown Sundown it’s another night And I’m crying My spirit is dying My tears have been vanquished to a secret place Where only those without form can taste them Those with it, they call it a waste It’s so lonely, lonely Just then I remembered why I chose the hard way Why I rejected wearing a fancy tux with a "pretty pink bow tie" and hiding behind mmoma's legacy I remember clearly how and why I chose to write my own story And to build my very own dynasty of success  With no options and no money Floating along with the debris My only friends are the trees Sundown it’s another night And I’m trying But dreams can only get you so far Sinking like quicksand in the tar Wink one last time at the stars It’s so lonely, lonely With no people and no true home Floating along with the breeze Waiting for sun-up to put me at ease
