I exist in fragments
scattered over years and moments
of love, of joy, of pain.
In fragments held by people;
I hope they need them someday
if only a brief remembrance.
In fragments lodged in places
where I've been or have wished to be,
where I loved, I laughed, I cried.
In fragments in your heart
that I broke myself for.
Those fragments I may not find again.
I exist in fragments
broken but knowing
that maybe we all need a fragment of me.

You should never hate yourself.
You should never sit in a crowded room and feel lonely.
You should never feel abandoned in a group of friends.
You should never change yourself because of other people's opinions.
You should never think you are not enough.
Please don't hate yourself.
Please don't feel lonely.
Please don't feel like an outcast.
Please be yourself.
Please, you are enough.
Please.
If you ever think no one loves you,
just know that the King of kings, the Lord of lords, loves you so much.
But I know sometimes you will feel this way.
I understand, but maybe I don't.
Just, please.
Don't hurt yourself.
In any way.
Please.

And if we're no longer slaves
Why do we lend an ear to
the demons' voices?
And if we've been saved,
then why do we still believe
we're chained?
And if we're children of God,
why do we care what the devil's prickle
Can hurt
And if we believe,
why don't we thrive?
why don't we conquer?
For we're slaves no more,
For we're powerless no more
For we're worthless no more.

Glory to you
Omnipotent, omnipresent
Days are worthy cause you live
Fill the empty from up there
Adviser in all, from up there
Teacher guide us,from above
Hear us out ,from down here
Everything here's a mess
Resting on your arms we long

Wings stained with longing
cries of misfitted sound
Melancholy raging deep down
Soul the shade of a rainy cloud
Yet she wears them proudly
With a matching gown and grey halo
"These wings are meant to fly,"they say
But hey,
What are they worth?

It's more than just a country
It's more than just history
It's more than what people see
Cause they only see a very small portion
And what I see,
Is the big picture
Much more beautiful than all Picasso's artworks
For to me,
It's mother nature's masterpiece
One that keeps on getting prettier with age;
How shall I say it ,
It's an international controversy'
It's Rwanda

Cry till you're dry
O troubled soul
Cry till the eyelids swell
O weary heart.
But do it all in that corner
Where only shadows live
In that corner where your ease belongs
Dump it all .
Then step out with the heart of
a warrior; Head held high,
For another day unfolds at the death of the darkness,
A day for strength
A new breath to take
Get up and teach those broken wings how to fly again .

you made me smile
my eyes twinkled in the dark of the night
my heart leapt with delight
you made me cry
tears ran down my cheeks
like crazy
you closed my eyes
and opened my vision
to a whole new world
a place where my dreams were kings
where life was a sweet lollipop
where there was only victory to devour
but -
it lasted only a moment
it was just for a while

Everything we'd designed
used to fit us both;
gorgeously
All the songs we'd sung
used to sound;
perfectly.
But look at us now
words quenched, faces dismayed;
sadly
Where are all those castles we'd built; in the air
where are all those poems we'd written; in the stars
where are all those gardens we'd planted ; with hope
And that fire that kept our spirits alive
Drifting through the winds of despair is now
ashes

My city is cold,
The people are cold.
The weather is cold too.
But, when the seasons change,
The city will no longer remain cold,
But, the people will.
