My Love
Isaac afunadhula Jul 2023
Days have passed by without a whisper
from your voice
I have searched and waited for your call
As i thought and thought on an empty bed
Hoping to meet in my dream
The reminiscence of your smile is all that is left
I only hope to make it in time before all that is
seizes to exist
In a world of two, where you and i belong

Lost In Thought
Isaac afunadhula Jul 2023
Am a child of the universe
My dreams are shattered into tiny pieces
For the way of love is unknown

The heavens know this
Yet it wa si who adhered to melancholy
With the growing that dirfts us apart

It's been days, days
And yet my heart bleeds
With the fear of losing it all

How can one survive under this cold weather?
With hopes that she will return

Oh yield not on empty dreams
for all that is will soon be no more .

My perfect lady
Isaac afunadhula Apr 2023
How beautiful you are, my love
Perfect and elegant within your limits
How far did we come far from being us,
I came down among the almond trees,
To see beauty flourish upon my lover's smile,
From the crowd of women that had six to eight
But I only love one,
She is lovely as a dove
Beautiful and bright,
As the dazzling sun and moon
A little purity is all I ask for
To taste the fruits of love,
That shine through those brown eyes
Cute as hell coz it's what you are
A beauty outspoken for.
Time is only a factor once you embark along the journey of love. The last two months have been worth living coz I met a girl that understands me.

Esther
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2023
I dreamt of you
Not because I didn't think of you
But because I wanted to see you again

I dreamt of you
Not because I was told to
But because of this lonely feeling
That held me captive without you

I dreamt of you
Not because of your beauty
But because of your gentle touch

I dreamt of you
Not because I was told so
But because I wanted to see you stand next to me

I have been on the ocean side
And  seen the another  day go by
With nothing but the cold breeze blowing by
I have wished and prayed for better but no one seemed to reply
My heart had been racing hoping at least to say goodbye
To you my true love that seemed too shy to look my way
Oh poor me seeming to scared to loose you again to another day.

A hidden place
Isaac afunadhula Dec 2022
There is a place like home
Far way from this land of mine
A place so distant yet close to my heart
It's a place of beauty where I  long  to be
With everything that's full of splender within the delights of  His existence
Yes it is place only  for those that seek after Him
Indeed there is a place like home
Far away from this land of mine were the saints live forever.

Abide in Me
Isaac afunadhula Dec 2022
Abide in me oh Lord
Cause my soul to reawaken to Your beauty
That I may rejoice in who you are
Abide oh Lord that I may see beyond this moment
Living in Your presence
Abide in me oh Lord that I may shine
Amongst men yet not as l
Oh You beloved abide in me that I may be sheltered under Your wings.

Question Of Faith
Isaac afunadhula Apr 2022
What hope do we stand for?
If truly  there is love amongst us.
Is it just another lie we tell ourselves?
Just to get attention, we do all things.
Things that land us into the shallows of evil.
Even for the chosen that wander into the dark.
Only for what pleasure and pride?
What intent does the Church of Christ stand for?
Is it just another metaphor that we add to vocabulary?
Oh in this church where immorality is like an anthem.
And yet scripture forbids such act.
But all they say to themselves that God is our salvation.
I mean if the deaf and dumb know that is wrong.
Why not listen to what is right to find peace.
Oh Lord if only You have mercy upon this generation that has lusted and turned away from You.
If we choose to deny the truth and rather hide behind deception then there will be no hope that left. It's up to you to rise and take up your assignment to make a difference.
Isaac afunadhula Apr 2022
Is it worth the time to wait out in the open just to be disappointed
Or
To hold onto something for a little while
What's it like then, if I lay hold of love only to have a better view and not let go
In the end, I still find no joy
If only I stood by the edge and found hope
I wouldn't wait more with urge to pen down these thoughts but rather step out of the dark to have a glimpse of light that comes with this valuable tressure
Mystery though one I wish to explore

The water cries
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2022
If my heart pours out
If the rains turns to snow
Then my heart shall find rest
To the delight of the world

If a cry for blood burns like a fire
In the far land of kasheki, then the song of the heartland shall be sung by the hyena's

If the moon shodows it's beauty under the blue skies
A roar shall be heard in the sea deepth

To the voices of the earth
I just want to sing beneath the sun
beneath the clouds
If the words that we say sometimes mean less in this life of uncertainty then we ought to do better for the greater good.

The hidden treasure
Isaac afunadhula Dec 2021
Camp in my body like a refugee
Speak to me like a stranger
Show me the wealth with in
I seek all day long for you because I sowed a seed of hope
This body may grow weak but You are impeccable
The hunger and thirst for your goodness burns like a fire with in
Shine your light to my heart and soul
To declare Your worth

Child of her own
Isaac afunadhula Dec 2021
A mother calls out to her little one
Listen to what I say child of my own
Up lift your hands for the blessings cry out
The precious gift of life lies here with you child of my own
The stars and galaxies and all that are with in measure not to this ecstasy
My heart shall always beat with this endless love
You are a song in the night child of my own
And now this joy will forever be witnessed till the skies fade away
Dedicated to my mom

The Father's heart
Isaac afunadhula Dec 2021
I've been searching for a place like home
But here I choose to stay for the undeniable truth
For the stars shine with every year as a song of praise
In the night it may seem dark but I will rise and stay at the Father's heart.

No More Turning Back
Isaac afunadhula Oct 2021
Though the winds blow I will stay
Out in the open
To see prefect grace unfold
My heart shall give way to love
Time will be lost but I will give the highest praise
Worship for all my days in Your name
Savior of all in you I trust

Angel Of Mine
Isaac afunadhula Oct 2021
Let your name be curved on to my lips
Let the blood lust crave for the emotional breakdown
Let your voice be heard in the intensity of the alphabet
Let the days start mendicant with memories of you and I
Let the dizzle  escalate this sweet moment
Let the bemused tension be felt in the stomach
Let the round of this game be zoomed in the streets of Florida
Let the bang at the door be darkened by your steps
Let the hair stand on edge close to mine
Let the invite to your domicile be sent by the birds
Let the wander of this heart rest in your embrace
Let flames of fire put a scar on to our souls
Let beauty intertwine to crash this empty thoughts
Time spent with the person that you love can change so much about you.

Waiting Here For You
Isaac afunadhula Oct 2021
Lord here I'm take my heart and have it all
Steadfast and lead me to the way of hope
At Your feet I worship.
With expectations I come into your house singing hallelujah
Author of salvation all I need is You Lord
In praise I lay at Your feet with complete love and joy
What an amazing love manifested at the cross keeper of my heart

Christ my saviour
Isaac afunadhula Oct 2021
Let it be by the winter storm that I find my worth
As I stand in your love that's undeniable
Living in the freedom that you died for is my desire
I stand in the grace that goes on forever
In You I will rest and find peace
You alone deserve the praise Jesus
I surrender Lord as l sing through the night of your goodness to me

The moon and sun
Isaac afunadhula Sep 2021
There was the moon and sun before the beginning of time
With a point of reference they sang to the most High

The moon rubbed words of praise around the stars as He stretched out light to his child covered with mud who cried out as he worshipped

The moon and stars rejoiced to the son of God who stood with glory and might

The sun sobbing with overwhelming joy bowed down and sang all day to His true king in Heaven
I wrote this when I thought that I had lost everything but there I was inspired to write this poem

What's with you and  that
smile?
How hard can l try to get a spot in your life?
what is it about you that keeps me chasing and guessing?
Is it  the way you talk or walk ? that my heart skips a little bit?
how awkward did it get when I said hi?
what time is it so that I can hug you for the very, first time?
what's with moods that cry under the veil of an exquisite lady like you?

To the girl next door
Isaac afunadhula Aug 2021
Like stars burn in the sky,                                  
A heart pounds to love even when broken.
Sigh of  breath that choose to stay in an art of a domicile            
that holds memories lost in ages, Beauty and perfection that chase after the wind joins two kinds of people,                    
That's me and you.

Girl of dreams
Isaac afunadhula Aug 2021
Drawing a margin in the book of love and all l see is you
Trying to let go but the birds still say your name
How did l end up in a cold world hold your memory on a piece
of paper
The rhythm of your voice still echoes in my mind
Tell me girl of my dreams how to move on
Say it at the dusk so that l can
l lay my head down on your thighs as l say good bye.

Lord Your love is kindness
Isaac afunadhula Aug 2021

Who reveals all truth
Saviour of all who does sit on the throne you love is kindness.
His love is kindness and genuine to all that receive Him

A gust of wind that blows under the sky
The beauty that roams defined only by the colors of true love
Voices echoing louder than a thunder struck
Strip strips off a zebra's back
Fading hope for the vase that held it all along
Is broken and the pieces are over the floor
Deafening silence holding the ambience
Melancholy has an open door through
Tears won't stop falling
Love is a myth ,l wish l listened when they told me.

Crystals and diamonds
Isaac afunadhula Aug 2021

Taste of my lover

A reason to live
Isaac afunadhula May 2021
Faithful you are who washed away sin and pain
Strengthen me and walk with me through the storm that l face
You took the blame and saved my soul
You called my name up in the mountain fog
A reason to live in my life again
You breathed within my soul
You grace and mercy unfold in the future
I thank you Jesus because you are with me now and forever.

A Thought of Life
Isaac afunadhula May 2021
I walk with misery
I walk in the world but not of the world
I seek for guidance and no one cares enough
I live in this horror of time
Days pass and a new theme is put
I have been pushed away by my closet friends because l don't engage in their decieful thoughts
I have been driven to the edges of this world that l stamp my feet on
I'm no better than the unborn child  who hasn't seen the suffering out of it's mother's wormb
I step and spit on the very land l was moulded from
I don't fit in this  worthless world  because I'm not of this world.

Glory to Glory
Isaac afunadhula May 2021
Blessed be his name
Praise be on to the Lord Almighty who so loved man  and gave his own to be  sline for  our sake

His grace is forever
He has shown Mercy from generation to generation
His spirit bares witness that l'm a child of God
Praise be to the most high God whose kingdom reigns forever.
Be blessed with this message

As he looks up in the sky
he sighs and wonders
he gapes and almost staggers lost
He sees one surviving star shinning brighter than the wandering lot
casting his thoughts like fish net
he makes a wish to his loved ones maybe they laughed
at the old terrible joke of the palm squeezing greeting
Or cried about another broken ***
The kids must really be my blood
And maybe she laughed the same
terrible laugh
Or grimaced in similar ancient grief
Lined across her fore head the day l last saw her

Story Of My Life
Isaac afunadhula Mar 2021
Is it what l am or what l've become that people despise me for the less interest
A boy who lives with brown hair as he wanders trying to find his way back home
A boy who tells his story through words written on a piece of paper
A boy who grew up without any friends but still moved forward
A boy who has nothing to hold on except the love of his family
A boy who lives to tell a story to those that listen to his message.

My lady
Isaac afunadhula Mar 2021
I have been sitted  in a train thinking about yesterday
We rubbed our nose's, kissed and wrote a new chapter of our lives
A day we spent at the beach looking at the freshwater as l cried tears of joy
A day that vividly happens when l close my eyes
My lady I  invite you to dine with my family
because you are the love of my life.
To all married couples.

The Untitled Truth
Isaac afunadhula Mar 2021
She said that she loved me
but didn't mean it
despite everything l did
From age to age hoped to marry you but the evil that breathed under your pretty face ruined and broke me
Only trusted you more than my own
like maybe you fell down from the stars to shine the light to the dark
You were the spirit of doom
For you were my first and will always hold a place deep in my heart because l still  love you.

Dear Keys
Isaac afunadhula Mar 2021
It's now two days since
l saw your beautiful face
The love that you showed me is
the best memory l could ever have
I lost you on a journey we took together
Your were life,a friend
Could talk to you out in the open.

Dear keys
You rain a storm of happiness
and now left with grief because you are gone.
Isaac afunadhula Feb 2021
2014 was the first time  l saw a beautiful face
I had stalked her for days
Hoping i would say hi, i rushed in eagerly
How wrong i was
You were cold as ice
Mean to your friends
Infact you were the devil himself
Who couldn't find love
Now l believe the saying
"Evil girls have the prettiest face"

2020 i felt happy once more to see you
You held my hand and asked me to walk you home
Blind as bat
I fell for you hoping that you had changed but who says people change you broke my heart for the second time .
My worst experience in my life

Scarlet spencer
Isaac afunadhula Feb 2021
Light of a thousand stars in your eyes ,intoxicating smile
That sweet perfume of roses you carry with you when you walk
A beautiful angel whose name is whistled by the birds all through the streets
It's been plenty of years since you left heaven for earth
From the first time your parents held you in their arms
The joy you brought peace to their souls
Rekindled a glow that was forgotten
The friends you made that have seen you grow
Through the brightest & darkest times
To you that was poised and impeccable
For every ugly scar on you was a beautiful spot
You embraced love and wasn't selfish to share it
The world celebrates you
Happy birthday
There's thousand and more candles for you to blow.
Happy 14th birthday
