My thoughts tell me
Every day who I was
And who I'd be
In this threadlike tomb
Up above my fine pedestal
A myriad of thoughts and ideas

Love comes to me each night 🌙
And to the skies she points
My lover is a fairy,an angel
And she tells it all in her smiles
Even from miles I know she thinks
And feels how inadvertently feeble it is
To be away when yet we were next to each other..

Her breath and snores in the nighttime made me laugh
O you told me all she's a beauty and more

And in the morning sorrow comes knocking
On the doors my heart
He says you have lost a lover
Have you not shed enough tears?
Do you think you'd ever find true love in another?
No I'd blink an eye
All made in silly sighs

My grandma she died
Just when I could tell a lie
That Pain was a blessing and how selfish her children held onto her
Wishing never to depart

And yet when the day finds it way home
To the stars it went
Hope comes with renewal
Wallowing around my bile
He says work hard don't let it pile
And I'm strong by this feeling
Wishing it never left
How do you give  strength and walk away when I'm most happy?

All but sounds silly
Belief to my soul
Love to my heart
And sorrow on dusty days
My life has felt..
None the less of silly thoughts
Hidden in threads of blood and brain
  Jun 30 Yohannes Asare

When we were young we loved so much
The plans we made and the time we lost
Together we learned to face our fears
It was just another time of years

We lived, we loved and we tried so hard
We watched our children grow
We made our place and we cried our tears
It was just another time of years

Now it’s time we are looking back
We both know where we’ve been
We stood strong beside all our piers
It’s just another time of years
Who did I send to the other side
My son did I?
O!I smell the rapid ***** of blood
Leaching into the soil on the grounds where my fathers died

And yet this day...
I send my only begotten
My heir unto the very end
That suffering may end
And lawbreakers and wrongdoers may spite
A gift I give unto all humanity

Did you send your sons to fight in a war?
One of servitude and slavery and shame
His warm embrace and chivalry

The women adored a man
Who could tell a story
And two ***** who sang on sinking boat
To find a treasure
Not that they laid a claim to a land
Yet they find not
And such a beauty he loved

Tears of departing lover
He said my love
Say a prayer to old gods and the new
One of victory against a city of menace
Until then shall we shed not tears of despair
A messenger I am of a futile adventure
An unbeliever I was
With doubts and flaws
Of faith,fate and grace
I am not a soul without a goal
Ever wondered what was made of coal
I do not believe
That the institution was made to redeem the people
I blasphame,you blasphame and we lie
That I love a diety unseen
Who made the seen
There's a place of peace
Inside of every being
Oh,I have yet to believe
What's right?who determines?
What do we pledge our selves to
A life of service and then we only do it for ourselves
That's who we are
Men of self love
And we make more men
Of same body and of blood and flesh

Oh,I am an unbeliever
I doubt I could love
A springflower in daddy's orchards
A beauty whistling of summer
In the sands along the shore
Her smile struck my heart
And yet an unbeliever would love not
Death flies
She said she lies
In a bouquet of casket flowers
Her sons shred the cheek of sweat
A time to make mom smile
Fled whirlwind in a mile
I was born to decide the days I lived with pain and certainly fear
Some words my heart held dear
All ancestry reckon the fate
A destined little lifetime
Of suffrage and inconvenience
Empty kennels to shine in a dark veil
And then comes the angel calling
To a another lifetime of vanguard resurrection
Death flies...with wingless tentacles
