The prefect failure

He walks the dark times alone
He never perfect despite his efforts.

My beautiful dream

She called upon my name
filled with thrill.

Night fall

Stars fill the sky like always
And it's time for the unseen creatures to feed.

Thug life
Isaac afunadhula Feb 2021
Days are never better
Nights are lonely
Cold as always
With the streets unsafe
All you do is wonder
Where the next meal will come from
Unlike the others
Your always on your own

Troubled Boy

Scared Lover
Isaac afunadhula Feb 2021
The love I have for her pushes me from my friends
And yet I'm scared to lose her
For she holds the keys to heart
Unlike all the romantic stories
Ours could be defined as Pip & Estella in the Great Expectations

Dark soul
Isaac afunadhula Feb 2021
My soul was distant for my world
All I could see were the damages I had caused
For the humanity in me had Faded away
The rage in my eyes took a hold of me
For the monster that lived inside had awoke

I woke up in the marshes,
All l could hear was the wolves hawl
through the frigid forest.
I was weak to walk but my soul grew stronger.
The winds made me cold even in my jacket.
Alone in the dark with a torch running out of batteries.
Walk like a hunter in the night,
like a soldier at war
looking for the beacon of hope
That my bad days are over.

I want to know the truth
For you say that you
care for me
It seems that you don't,
for we are distant from each other
I know that l broke your trust but how can l make it up to you
I don't want to call it quits after everything that we been through,
and the secrets that we hold about our complicated relationship.
I can't take the pain and hurting away
At least we could could be friends who look out for each other.
For they say beautiful minds start a beautiful world.

Why
Isaac afunadhula Feb 2021
Why
Do l ask
Why
do l still hope for more?
Why
do we chase dreams?
Dreams that are fatal.
Why
do we blend with the lies?
lies that blind fold the future.
Why
do we hold back at a certain moment?
Why
is it hard to find success?

Trapped in ages

Far away from destiny
For the wise man says inspirational quotes
that are passed from generation to generation.

My heart keeps bleeding
Isaac afunadhula Feb 2021
I have nothing left
No hinges for support
So my world is falling
I'm trying to keep in with the strings
Am shaking coz my confidence died when you left
so each time l see the brushes shaking
l can't think it's the wind
like maybe there's an animal hidden there
trying to come for my blood
Your face the prettiest l have ever seen
Really how did l end up here
Far from being us
like we should jump on a train
to the day we met
leave all that followed normally
Escape those that could bring us down
I have been thinking about the future you planned for us
You said you loved me
I'm hoping we can start again
I keep knocking at your door
still no response
I know you hate me really bad
I deserve it
They say i'm cursed
whoever l attach myself to gets hurt
So maybe l should keep my distance but the painting on the wall says l should not
That's why l'm leaving you this message.

Walking

Along these edges
heading for the alter

Sunday morning
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
Woke up to cheer
but l had taken aback
devastated for the news
for he bit the dust
but said heroes come and go
but legends are forever
and will always be remembered
and his legacy left to inspire
the flower of age.

Carry off in my dream
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
For she held my hand
and walked me through the horror
but as l looked closer
she was grotesque,
l shouted to the best
calling for help.
And there l was in another
dimension.

Pieces of my life
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
Yesterday started with a
break down
but l'm to keep doing
my best everyday
l try to have this
confidencein me
but seconds that pass
my soul keeps hurting
for l'm lost and helpless
but believe to make through

but couldn't escape the torture
will l still face trouble in the future
and battle for the survival fate the future holds.

Untitled
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
Iearnt to focus my camera
to take a clear photograph
of the beauty this world is
endowed with
As l walked on an endless
road,
a mirage could be seen
from a far
My thirst grew and l knew
l was closer to sipping from
a stream
l was wrong
not everything you see is
what they are
Toughest lesson of my life

5 minutes left on the clock
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
Wonders of how
l could have your love
in my grip
like a hawk with a
worm
like a thief in the night
for l'm shy with the
lights
to chase after you in the
streets
not minding the embarassment
Iong as it gets me
and you in the end
words being spoken
good and bad
how long do we have
to prend not to share
this feeling
yet my picture is right on
the wall at your place next
to your head each time you
sleep
time could rob us the
chance
l do't want to lose you
l could sell off all that l
had to show how far l'm
willing to go when it comes
to you
lt is 4 of the 5 minutes left
still don't know
if your love is worth.

Pain in my vein
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
Days that passed left me
speechless.
Wonders of how l could
make through the
lonely nights with the
lost feelings that l had.
Uncertain about the dangers
l would encounter during
this aimless journey.

Yesterday
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
I woke up in a dark place
could see no light each path
I took
Like lwas on my own again
or maybe the world had ended
And it was only me left
My adrenaline levels Started rising,l thought living my solitary life
maybe l would make it though
I was wrong
The further l got lost in the darkness, the more frightened l got.
I guess l was caught up in a dome
That had been kept far from the
shine of the moon or the sun
maybe a test for my bravery
I took out a lighter to
put the light on.
some how l felt less alone.
The darkness no longer scarced me ,as l kept looking at the lighter
A round of applouse from an audience
I couldn't see
It was just an audition
In the dark
Some how l got the role.

Girl next door
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
I'm in love with the girl next door
she is pretty
My heart keeps falling for her
Even when l don't know her name
I can't describe these
feelings
A crush
An infatuation
At least it is not a hallucination
I'm in love with the girl next door
Today,she said hi to me
It was a golden moment for me
As l absorbed melodies from
her voice.
At least l now know her name
And will write my story
starting with her.

Struggles
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
Days run so fast.
Just yesterday,l was 10
And today ,l'm 15
And tomorrow, l will be 20
And maybe 40.
Hope l make it to 100
And tell stories to my grand
kids
About the walls l had to break
to survive
Some to make them smile
Others will be sad ones
And maybe they will cry
But in the end,each struggle
will be worth it.

love
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
Love is a beautiful thing
Though so hard to find
And if found so easy to lose
Because a few things could go
wrong
And before they get fixed,
It will be too late
To pick up the pieces and
remove the beautiful thing
I just hope to make it last
To have Rome in our lives
And an ocean full of smiles
From the lips to which l will
Woe for her heart
That through the silence and
Fights,we will connect our mistakes
And shape the future of
Us
That will go on and on
With time and never
Iosé it's shine.

Travelling thoughts
Isaac afunadhula Jan 2021
As far as the horizons ,
my love for adventure pushes me,will l touch the sky with my feet in the waters!
will l become the greatest explorer alive!
I wish l could go to worlds beyond my own and still survive Sad part is
This wish can never be granted by life

— The End —
