Broken
Solomon Joshua Mar 2020
A piece of me is thrown away
my life is like a movie with no replay
my heart is shattered to pieces
my brain cannot comprehend the unending dilemma of how pain feels

The sun alarm arises
The temple of my body is full with crisis
the bisect of a circle splits to halves sweet pains dividing my troubles
all chocked deep to my bone marrow

Summer falls
Winter calls
my heart shrinks
pushed to the brinks
chocked heart no place to find leaks

Troubled waters remains calm
my heart had ran far
The little humane in me has been taken
leaving my heart to pieces
it's broken....

Fallen Soldier
Solomon Joshua Mar 2020
The flag has become too heavy for us to carry
what's the color again? my feel couldn't tell the texture it carries
broken dreams of an African mind
our dreams were higher than the mountain
pieces of it fallen like the sand that make up the mountain

our guns now bleed because we forgot how to shoot
our camouflage no longer disguise us
nor our boots no longer match us
our backpacks are down because our backs couldn't carry them

Oh fallen soldiers !!!!

You have forgotten what war feels like
raging sound were meant to be your soundtrack
dried blood were meant to be your right chest badge
oh!
Fallen soldier !!!!

— The End —
