MY ROSE FLOWER
VICTOR KAPALU Jan 2023
My rose flower
I am your own rose follower
Because of your scent smell
I will everly be happy man I tell

My rose flower
I have reserved a field within me
The field of rosey hearts
The field centred with vision

My rose flower
I am your only gardener
I will water to keep you fresh
To my best,I will keep the field rosey red.

My rose flower
With a black velvet band
You shine like a diamond
As the queen of the land

My rose flower
I will change your generic name
As stated by law
Just to be in-suit with you

My rose flower
My patience is like a tailor's suit
I will continue sowing my patience
Like a tailor's patience

I CAN'T FEEL MYSELF
VICTOR KAPALU May 2022
I feel like a bird with wings but can't fly
I feel like the room has become as wide as the earth's vacuum
I feel like running at the speed of light but can't reach
I feel like pain makes me as a writer

I feel like my tears turns into ink sometimes
I feel like my pace is as slow as a tortoise
I feel like my empire is becoming deadly
I feel like a hungry lion but have food of thoughts

I feel like my demands can't reach the galaxies kind aids
I feel like aquiring knowledge but my soul have to taste the bitterness of books
I feel like sometimes am Albert Einstein
I feel like my emotion goes as deep as kabompo river

I feel like my tears can fill the ocean
I feel like my voice is as inaudible as a voiceless fighter
I feel like being called 'VICTOR' means alot in battles
I feel like my shadow is falling

I feel like my lovely life is becoming boring
I feel like aches of echoes every moment
I feel like am an introvert person
I feel like am an extrovert person

I feel like I missed her love
I feel like I missed his love
I feel like they left her as my priority
I feel like I can't feel myself

TRUTH
VICTOR KAPALU Feb 2022
Like a sun
You shine in my darkest moments
Like a thread
I'll swing like a bob in your mind

Like a bird
I aim to fly like an eagle to reach your standards
Like a wrist watch
I'll tick at your waist of your mind

Like honey
The truth will taste sweeter
Like rains
I'll risin black colours of your moments

Like a reader
I won't flip the pages of your past
Like a kisser
My lips 'll merge to dress you with words

Like a bird in your heart
I'll be melodiously singing
Like a drunkard driver
I'll drive you crazy

A SCAR
VICTOR KAPALU Oct 2021
Before it fades,
Let me dig deeper to let fear of lossing it
Touch the weak tendrion of happiness
So... I don't endure it.

It's an oscar
Not a birth mark
But a boon scar
Given during the war in ark.

It's symbolize ownership,
In the lordship
During the transition of kingship
That I fought in king's ship.

It is as sticky as red-lips of lipstick
ready to hit its kiss tick
To a made golden wounded
Victorious soldier.

LAST NIGHT
VICTOR KAPALU Oct 2021
Like a dreamer,
Was happy to lay-down up the galaxy
Just as an astronaut ,
I kissed the moon's feet like a missionary.

Before bed,
aseptic of flute, violin was as a dose.
And pink lips sips and stamps the forehead
Beside me was a night rose

It was a great night,
To ignite.
The Might night of light in us.
Like a righteous.

FREE SOUL
VICTOR KAPALU Oct 2021
Like a morning star,
I shall shine.
Like a morning star,
I shall draw a pattern of diamond line.

For I am freed as a slave,
So shall my feet kiss the ground of ownership.
Before the table,
So shall my lips have a taste of freedom.

Forever,
Shall I dance to rhymes of saints.
On alter,
My hands will bond to vow ever.

FREE MIND
VICTOR KAPALU Oct 2021
The oceans whispers
My ear adhere
Near the river

As I seek peace in silence
Rthymes of soft music comfort me
in its peaceful hands

As rose petals emittes sweet smell,
My nose bow as it inhale
To seek solace peace

A RAT IN MY HOUSE
VICTOR KAPALU Jun 2021
Suddenly, I fall asleep without knowing,
I started wooing in little knowledge that,
there is fire on the mountain.
The picture was failed to be captured, because I was capsized into
the palace full of candy,
forgetting that am the king of integrity and dignity
people knew.
They were voices I head at the back of my dream
As much as I slept, scripts of pages were randomly flipped.
They were scripts of consolation and recirculation of what I heard,
But It was  not for the rebellion i fought.
It was a rat in my house I knew for the past many decades,
I thought perhaps I would be one of them but it was a precision.
I was abide. Thus, I was split from goats  as a sheep,
Not knowing the principle, that  circulates
As it goes like, “ blood is thicker than water!”
friendship grew like  a frame of a Bunsen,
the bond was as strong as a stone,
And it was unbreakable.
As voices faded, I never knew that I was in another dream of a dreamer.
Again I was lost like a coin, I was no where to be found
As I was a dream chaser, not only that, but a breaker.
The senses came back to normal as i was out in one’s dream as a dreamer,
A picture which was failed to be captured flashed in my mind.
Again the picture failed to be captured,
because of the voices at the back of the dream.
It was an invade, no sound to be recognized because they were tip toes
Of people I intend rarely to know.
I do not think so, if they are the one I saw in the dream, the funny part is that I was in another  dream as dreamer .
Maybe it was a rat in my house  I intended to know,
Which wiped the beauty of the joy .

"Why Didn't you Say NO At First"

After all the moments we had in glitter of rains
The wishes and promises you told me turned into pain

Why didn't you say  No at first?

You would have said No!
For you knew that it was a fist you made to punch me afore your gain
Now I have failed to refrain
And all you have made
Is a monster with injuries,so I have to sustain
And all I see in other  people is  the zombie that should be chained

Why didn't you say No at first?

The  references the future held were bright
As sun was our blessings when darkness wanted to invade ,
But the darkness that came was you
Yes you!
You wore a fake smile on your face
Your words were as sweet as honey
I had to fall in that trap
For you were having coffee,
lovely words contained in that cup
Were crafting the coffin for me

Why didn't you say No at first?

The person I pictured in you
Later...was not you.
Now you are happy
That you have fulfilled your mission to **** me
Your kisses are that of Judas
The betrayal!
And you have buried me

You would have told me!

Now I have to enjoy in this place you buried me
The truth
is am in a warm coffin you crafted
I enjoy now to be with goasts that live a freely life.

Why didn't you say No at first?

LOVE LIKE A THIEF
VICTOR KAPALU Jun 2021
In the blink of an eye,
I was caught by your attention
that...I cannot lie
And It was more like ammunition

Just like a thief, you came'n my life
You stole my heart by being part
Of my life
And re-painted the word with hurt

Behind my back I head tip-toes of foots,
I smelled love
Afore the glimpse of lips emerge

So I laid in lilies of your hands
Where peace has a single definition of dimensions of bands

To you, am bound in series of twilight
And so soaked in glitter of gold as rain
As it washes all the pain gained tonight

NEVER DOUDT YOURSELF
VICTOR KAPALU Mar 2019
They say you can't make it
Just because your success is tint?
Those are merely tick tooks.
You're more than what they think
Laliophobia might make them sink.

The path you take make them doubt
Things you often do amaze them!
You make their brains to fruburguast

Their mouth mute to silent
With great things you do
Such that they can't comprehend.
The rough tough path you take
Touches their soul to the fullest
You are more than the conqueror !

More-more than the follower!
Continue making the success
in the silent of a lion.
And leave it in picture coloured in carrion

And focus on your things that can make you
A better person,
A person everyone wishes to look after,

A passionate person who want to break a record.
"Never doubt yourself,
Never ******* to your dreams,
Just make everyone wishing you down

To see the rhythm of success...
Not until they scream."
"Do not loose hope on what your hands are touching,
Remember you can change the world like Martin Luther,Isaac Newton's and like other heroes."
"Life-is-life,

It can chop you like a knife
Squeeze your thoughts tight,
So that at the end you are right
And leave you bright
So my friend fight! ."
"You can make it,
You can reach at the crest of changing the world,
So...never doubt yourself!
Just try to be yourself! .
Put together all your thoughts like books
In a shelf!,
Believe yourself,
And never doubt yourself."

WHAT'S INSIDE ME
VICTOR KAPALU Mar 2019
I am like the ground that contains minerals
Which are expensive.
I am like a groundnut in a shell

My thoughts are covered like an old Indian lady everywhere.
My thinking is beyond the technology of nowadays

The dream I dream shines like the morning star
The vibrant future is as bright as the sun,

Is this profanity?
Perhaps it's the quality of being ******
This is the enthusiasm everyone wishes

But my best is not to be sculptor
What's more imperative in me?
To keep the word of God burning
In the lost souls.

What's in side me
is as wide as Zambezi river
My heart has kept quotes of scriptures
Which it has built me pillars to stand strong.

I am full of words...
full of being proud whenever am not.
Fighting to make my faith to be strong like concrete.
Tick tack
Time click
Still looking for spear salvation

Am no longer feeling like a grease spoon around
But my word sharp like the sword to fight against my enemies for not showing the green lightsWhat's inside me
is roaring like the lion

The foot step I take is as tortoise
So no more Algophobia!
No more Taphophobia!
No more Atychiphobia!
That's what inside me...

THE BROKEN MAIDEN
VICTOR KAPALU Mar 2019
she failed to fulfill her brightest dream
The heavy of her faith and patience dropped off her fit
After twenty good decades.

She lost the silver *****
While counting stars in the sky
After recalling the tough journey she had

She was the trophy of her mothers happiness.
Her dream was to be a sister
But the mirror of her dream was
Broken and awaken
vowed to sadness.

Her portraits dropped to less
She was amoretto,inside of someones
Apartment,and she failed to avoid

She become the recipient of sweet words
Lately,she was a lunatic pigeon
Of a neon.

Charity was failure !
The eminent name was lost!
And roast!
To all coast !.
Apparently the mates turned back on her

She was shown different colours
She lost her bliss moments she had
So she continued mourning
Her life.

So she quoted her siblings...
"It doesn't matter how many times you fall, what counts is how many times you stand up again.

Remember time wasted
Is never recovered. "
Her tears started flowing like water at Victoria falls...
She failed to grip to it...

She had to glance off from her emotions,
With her powerful quote .
But she remained as a broken maiden.
VICTOR KAPALU Mar 2019
Tears are flowing
through the night river of life
The heart is left with wounds
With no cure.

The world,Community,
sees it
As an impurity .
They are labeled as out casts
With extemporaneous!
They have lost the most
Precious treasures
Now pressures,are all over
To figure out insults
Received.

They are painted as bustard
They are left with no title
They have failed to find Love
And shelter

So...
They have to find Love outdoor
Because their is no indoor love
For someone to show them
Their hearts are like a broken mirror

And their is no one to mend
The linkage of their wounds
Because they're seen as outsiders
Among them!
One can change the world
One of them!
Can be a leader of tomorrow

They're impacted with fear
And no one need to hear
Their idea!

Just because they seems
Like their hearts are tightened
With cases, abomination and adulteries ,

Ancestors did back then!
We have fail to know the definition of reality
Because we're too sincere,
To our certainties.

They also need to live like you.
They also admires what you do!
"Let's not look upon them down
For one of them can change
The world."

THE UNAUDIBLE VOICE
VICTOR KAPALU Mar 2019
Hey!
We have failed to open up mouth
Justice is eatened by like lion
That have mute our mouths
to speak peace.

See!
they have become rich
because of the poors hardworking
they are now top WHAT as millioniors
with port berries.

We have failed to express our needs
Just because we are now used to express our emotions.
But no peace to our mouth

Remember,
you're not a merely a lion
that can shut up our mouth to inner peace
we have our hearts.

Our mouth means free
to everything
but you have made us preys
to our own place of peace

Please free us,
You can't continue been righteous
Over our happiness
of our precious.

We are dying,dying,dying
inside our hearts .
Stop praying with our emotions
We labelled as humans.

Yourself,
You said, "No one is above the law. "
but you have failed to follow the rules,
You have even failed to show us
the true tree that barres good fruits

You can't claim to be a mango tree
but you're a produce of pawpaw
What kind of a tree are you?
as for I don't know.
This poem talks about freedom of speech...

DEAR MUM
VICTOR KAPALU Mar 2019
Dear mum,
You're the heroe we know
Who have kept gathering unity like fruits
Together in the fields of love and peace
Your love has engulf us like the blue skies
You have made us preys
To all obstacles in dark clouds
And we grew so fast as trees
In the hands of crowds
You have showed us
to be as brave as a lion
Just to change the previous
bitter of thoughts we were painted in crayon
The narrow-nailed path
You took made us to be who we are
The victory is ours
And blessings are our showers
We have sipped to your love
Which has made us to be drunkers
in happiness of our hove
On us,you never ever slambers
Dear mum,
your quietness is as peace as Zambia's
your moves they never sounds like a drum
You have made us to be inspirers
Just to be who we are,
you never gave up for nine months
You were with us until we grew up
and you gave us sweet words to our mouths
You're the best teacher
in our lifetimes
Take this golden award
of our richness to happiness
Feel the sounds of love
Being given to you like a treasure
Of our crave,
Of our precious presure.
The queen of hearts
Take this red petal
which has the sharp apex
Of our rueds.
Dear mum,
We thank you,for your care
We thank you,for being the best teacher
We thank you,for your love.

YOU FORCED HER
VICTOR KAPALU Mar 2019
She has made a flood out of her cries,
She has been abused emotionally,
She is feeling uncomfortable to tell
Because of the torture she is in

You left her heart locked,
Now she is folked
Because of you
The inner peace she had is no more

Yes!,
You forced her all the night
In that dark room
She told you no
But you forced her
And you pelled her silver hymn.

Why did you do that?
See now she is in pain.
How is she going to tell her mum?
She was the trustee daughter.
Her mum,wanted her to be a graduate

You took that as the merit
And left out.
She was cute before
With everything ,
well caved body,wide hips
And pink lips.

But you ended up
putting her on the laps.
Merely one night
Broke are heart.

But you never noticed that!
You kept digging-digging
Her soul till you took her pride
what genre person are you?

Remember you force her
In the absence of her mother
You never  know
it wasn't making sence

See now she is in pain
See now she can't make a  move
She have lost the dignity
and the unity

You forced her to trust you
You forced her to wait for you
You forced her!
You forced her!

You have put a dark cloud on her
You have painted her
As a black sheep in her family
Why! Why! Why!...

Did you do that?
She used to smile
She lived a happily life with friends
She seems like,she has broke a vow
Remember you forced her.

"NO MORE SHADING TEARS"
VICTOR KAPALU Mar 2019
They said,no avail
No better for you
Just because your life is hell
Or ,you are out of fuel.

The heavy words you lift
they have made you  
A good craft lifter,
See now,you are painted bright colours

You never ever anticipated
You were dimmed like light
they wanted to see the darked
Side of you but you were the twilight

And the star in their lives
Now they have started
finger pointing see what you have become
You are now a recognized institution

To them, to the entire nations
Don't think its an image of imaginations
Their is a battle of incantations
They made in an absence of light

Before you,
or rather before me either before  the nation
They said you're nothing
You can't do anything

Just see their tummies
Oh-oooh, they are now fries
Who were saying
Just quit and do something

Often they're now scared of you
Merely a single time
They never trusted you
Because you were looking same

No more shading tears,
You're a fully time grown up man
Continue changing the gears,
to reach were they never reached before."

"it only takes a step
things to get better in life. "
That was my daily quote for you I had.

They lied themselves,
because their eyes were bricking so fast,
the prediction of their colours turned brown to rust,
so they failed to test the sweetest so fast

they never ever thought
You will be honoured by the people of the nations.

"Remember,you have just set a light in their lives."

— The End —
