Whenever we speak
I can feel my entire being,
My heartbeat, my breathing
I mean, all of me
Choreographing
To the sound of your voice
It is always an euphoric moment.

We're all different yet we're still equal
The only superior race is the human race,
to which we all belong.

Religion, sexism, social class, wealth, nationality... just to name a few of the
walls that we've built to divide/separate us.

Trampling each other on the road to power
Crushing one another, a show of power
Hey humans, Love is the answer.

We're all organisms of the same kind
Regardless what a person looks like or
where an individual is from,
we should be ONE in Unity.

He is loved by all
Except by...himself
In his "alone moments", he drowns in tears
He can't seem to run away from his fears
He can't hush the demons yelling in his head
It felt like his life was hanging on a tiny piece of thread
He longed for the day it would all end

But one day, He found a new friend
He met the One called Love
And his story was turned around
His hope was fully restored
He discovered his true worth
He became a new being
Totally transformed
What an encounter he had with Jesus!

Getting high on drugs, alcohol and the likes
Doesn't solve problems nor fix issues
The best they could offer is temporary distraction
Which later fades away into worse negative emotions

I write codes for a living
But I can't decode this life we're living!

Cry is not just the visible tears
That roll down the cheeks
But the weighty matters residing in the heart
That makes one feel sick
Sometimes, it's hidden behind a smile

The same letters that spell please
Also spell elapse
There is but a limited time
That we have on earth

Don't let your time elapse
While trying to please others
Spend yours answering your own calls
And not attending to diverted calls

Man's number one quest
Is to find happiness and peace of mind
But most times,
He goes finding it at the wrong place
or in the wrong things

He devotes all his time to getting money
Even at the expense of his family
Finally, he gets the wealth and riches
But his happiness is nowhere to be found
Then he starts buying expensive things to fill the void

Little does he know that
Happiness from material things
quenches like fire on a match stick
But happiness from within is hard to extinguish

He's seen as the happiest by others
But deep within him, he's seeking for order
He's ready to trade all he's got for happiness and peace of mind

Only if he knew that
his happiness has been within him all the time
Even way before the fame and the riches
Now, he's living life in misery
Repercussion of a shallow mind

I hope you and I won't fall in that trap
We'll get the money without jeopardizing
our happiness and peace of mind
We'll enjoy the journey basking in the beauty of the moment.

...And this time
She didn't want him to fix her situation
She only needed him to listen carefully
To understand her feelings & emotions
without him trying to offer any solution

But his brain was like a search engine
Busy scanning and searching for answers
Thus, failing to make an emotional connection.

*******... She reached for the door
But he was wise enough to not let her go
Then he asked where he had gone wrong
With tears in her eyes, she said...
Empathy means more to her than a quick fix

And he totally agreed that he had flawed
He then listened intently to her, knodding
his head as she poured out her heart
And that night ended with a warmly hug
That's all she desired & she slept with a smile.

What an amazing Masterpiece you are
But, a Masterpiece cannot be valued by all
If allowed, some would even rip it into pieces
See, it's easier to admire (like) something
than to cherish (care for) that same thing

Plus, some people are not ready to make sacrifices
So, protect your heart, knowing how valuable it is
Don't place it into any hand that doesn't know its worth
Remember, you are God's cherished Masterpiece.

Man's number one quest
Is to find happiness and peace of mind
Most times,
He goes finding it at the wrong place
or in the wrong things

He devotes all his time to getting money
He's super rich and comfortable
But happiness is still missing
He buys the expensive things
But he still feels a void in his soul

Happiness from things quenches like
fire on a match stick
But happiness from within is hard to extinguish

He's seen as the happiest by others
But deep inside him, his life lacks order
At this point,
He's ready to trade all he has for happiness
Little did he know that
Happiness has been within him
even before the he got money

"Hate" is a word that I hate to mention
But I strongly dislike these politicians
that are ******* us and
even the next generation(s).

The ones that have built almost no infrastructure.
The only structure they have in place is
that of funds misappropriation.

The ones that rule over us but are
themselves ruled by greed and insecurity.
They steal more than they will ever need,
jeopardizing the nation by their corruption.

Their country is living in difficulty and
they care only about their own prosperity.
They fool the people by doing good towards the end of their tenure so that they can win the next election.

These are not leaders, I call them Poli-thief-ians.

Misinformation is a tool used
by the media to ***** those
who would not dig to the root,
to find the truth.

What's the use of a huge load of
information if it ain't true—it's no good

Bold captions aren't always true depiction
of the actual situation
Don't be played by corporations
and institutions that want to keep
us in subjection.

Beware of their manipulations
Stay woke!

He got played
And kicked out
By the ones he called trusted friends
And sadly he fell

None of them could tell
That he was going to land on a spring
Zoom...He took off
Balancing above their heads
A blessing in disguise

Propelled to his Promised Land
A can of worms
Metamorphosed to
A *** of gold.

I've doubted myself
I've questioned my strength
I've belittled my innate abilities
I had felt that I wasn't good enough
I had wished I someone else

Until I realized I don't live for/by myself
There is a power that's at work in me
And I have a unique and a glorious destiny

Even though sometimes, those belittling
thoughts still come to me
I've learned to respond to them differently
My confidence is not in my mortal being
But in the One that resides inside of me!

Hail those friends who...

Hears your unspoken words
Heals your bleeding heart
Believes in your art
Tells you the truth when you're acting up
Encourages you when you're giving up
Gives you advice that you can trust
Gives your ideas a positive ******
Get angry at you and opens up
Prays for you to be at the top
Supports you with all they've got
Stick with you on every terrain
any weather; sun or rain

Watch out for them and be one yourself!

Why is it easier to spread the message of
fear and get the people terrified, petrified
Than it is to propagate the message of
love and get the people inspired, unified.

Is fear truly more powerful than love?
Does fear have a stronger grip than love?
Are we more receptive to fear than love?
Are we more fed with fear than love?
Is love the answer or is love overrated?

Or maybe I should just ask—
what really is Love?

Mama's words never cease to echo in my mind
Son...
Always remember the son of whom you are
Remember the home you're from

Steer away from greed, it drowns
Jealousy and comparison will pull you down
What you think of yourself is your truth
Never take that which doesn't belong to you

Do good expecting nothing in return
Don't pay evil back with its kind
Love yourself and remember to be kind
Money is good but it won't buy good character

In all that you do, protect you name and image
Love your neighbor as yourself
Do away with pride
Remember the son of whom you are!
