Mind of a Poet
A friend of mine told me
I write when I’m sad
She said it is as if I am in pain
And I said when I write it rains
When I put the pen on paper the clouds get dark
And when I stop
The birds of the sky sings
Coming out to play as the sun is out

Set us free
My people want freedom
My people want peace
Our leaders are corrupt they do not lead
All man are born free
For us its a myth
We are all leashed
Unshackle us
Set us free
All men are born free and equal, and have certain natural, essential, and unalienable rights; among which may be reckoned the right of enjoying and defending their lives and liberties; that of acquiring, possessing, and protecting property; in fine, that of seeking and obtaining their safety and happiness (UNIVERSAL HUMAN RIGHTS OF MEN  DECLARATION)
Lord forgive me I am a sinner
I sin against you in doubt
I lie, I steal
I destroy our foundation of trust
I won’t even mention my lust
I Wear my sins and hide away in shame
All my misery and hardships sometimes my life feels like a game
But when I face these uncertainties what do I do
I hate to disappoint you sometimes I’m sad and I cry  
I am depressed
I am hurt
Is this how it should work?
………..
My dear Son
My dear daughter
Look at how you have grown
I smile looking at you everyday
I am with you when it hurts
Are you with me when it hurts?
Is this how it should work?
To stand by each other when it’s all good but Curse when it pain
What happened to our vows of trust?
Even death won’t do us part
Trust me when you in pain  
Never stop believing in the power that we have
I never give a person, anything they can't handle,
I told you, you’re the light for this world
Now hold our trust like a candle
Your faith is all I need
Even when you weak and when you in need
Your faith is all I need
Even when you can’t see what you seek
Your faith is all I need
Never doubt
This world is not enough that’s why I made you heaven
Just do well by my side
In all your truth and all your doubts
……….
Thank you father
…….
You are welcome my child.
this poem is a conversation i had with my father .

Guardian Angel
May the lord be with you, she whispered
The sun shined bright that very day
This one is for my Granny
Always sending prayers in my way
My guardian Angel
Lighting my ways

Cure
The world got scarrier after you left
The nights are colder
The walls of my room can speak now
The voices in my head say I need help
But help from who when you were my
Cure
One of those days

Its the ones you kill
It's the ones you ****
Everyday
Nothing said
Dead to us
Helplessness meets Emotionless
Brokenness
Shattered glass
breaks
a million times
It's the ones you ****

Gloom
Should i lose hope
Should i lose faith
Should i leave everything i stand for
What does a man do when it seems like
Even god is fighting against him

Sanitize your soul
The year just ended in a blink of an eye
Tears have ran out we no longer cry
So many lives lost
Who is the imposter amongst us
Covid came and took over
Really can't believe the year is over
Grateful I'm alive
Sanitize your soul
Your hands wont save you
2020 thoughts
Why can't things i want be mine
I wake up the girl of my dreams walking down the aisle

Why cant things i want be mine
The lottery winning numbers turns my six into a nine

Why cant things i want be mine
In school submission dates drew closer, when i am running out of time

Why cant the things i want be mine
Lost both parents before the age of nine

Why cant the things i want be mine
Happiness does not live here it hurts when i smile

— The End —
