"nani" poems
Can we do things my way tonight?
where ever your mind led you is your desire
what moves you?
Let me tell you how my way works
first we start of with a little wine
exchange a few words full of nothing
then we walk towards the living room
where I have rose petals on the floor
candles lit
I play some slow music
gently start moving my hips to the rhythm
you try grabbing me trying to lay me down
I move slowly away dancing
feeling every beat of the song
I get lost in the song & soon enough you sit down & watch
I place my glass of wine down
start dancing as if no one is watching
it is then you realize what is happening
tears begin to flow down my face
the playlist is all slow jams
slow jams that move me
so I continue to dance my worries away
you get up & get behind me
holding me closely moving with me
we begin dancing slowly
it is then you feel what I have been feeling
a sense of freedom to just be
you then began to dance alone
I move away slowly & then begin to watch you
you are so lost in the music
you don't realize i am not dancing with you anymore
you look up to see me smiling
you extend your hand out asking me to dance
we dance all night
enjoying each others presence
not one word is exchanged
we feel the energy waves from each others body
which is all the words we need to keep dancing
& just be
how I longed to be with someone
someone who fell in love with my way.

is when i realized
i gave away the love I needed most
to the people who deserved it the least
I settled & stayed
for the fear of being left empty handed
after all the time, energy & love I invested
when all along it was my fault
for being played & left broken like I meant nothing
by people I gave my heart, time & love to carelessly
if there is something I learned from a heart break
it is that we ourselves cause them
by putting our hearts in the hands
of people who were never meant to touch, experience or love it
and
we ourselves can prevent them

silence is so peaceful
i meditate in the sounds of nature
anyone, anything that brings noise has got to be removed
i need QUIETness
i love to hear myself breathing
i hear all the sounds my body makes
i can hear the birds wings flapping from inside my home
when i am quiet i hear so much more
when i am quiet i am so far from the world.

NAKUSHUKURU
Baba nakushukuru kwa kunipa uhai hata sasa,
Nashukuru kwa kunisamehe na kunitakasa,
Nashukuru kwa kuwa ulikufa kwa ajili yangu,
Nashukuru kwani ulinibariki toka tumboni mwa mama yangu,
Nashukuru unanipenda hata na mapungufu yangu,
Nashukuru kwa kuwa unanilinda kutoka na kuingia kwangu,
Lihimidiwe jina lako YEHOVA hakuna kama wewe,
Mungu kwa kuwa hakuna kinachoweza kulinganishwa na upendo wako,
Hakuna kinachoweza kulinganishwa na wema wako,
Je ni mwanadamu gani awezaye kufa kwa ajili ya asimjua?
Ni nani awezaye kukubali kuteseka kwa niaba ya yule amchukiaye?
Ni nani awezaye kuuweka chini uhai wake kwa ajili ya adui yake?

Who the **** do you think you are?
walking into my life without my permission
opening my heart without warning me
sliding between my legs without preparing me
I must have "Your wife" written on my forehead
the way you stole my heart
changed my direction
flipped me in all different types of positions
crazy how you knew just what i needed
so where the **** we headed?

I see the sun in your eyes
the sky through your smile
your laughter paints the universe
I feel the oceans breeze through your touch
and earths peace through your kiss
you are the epitome of love
the beauty in all beasts
and in you I found my world

some are afraid to fall in love
me?
i'm afraid to find my equal
because in that moment
my player ways are over
there are way too many people in the world
to be tied down to you right now
so please baby take your time finding me

I gave you the tighest hug
neither one of us could breathe
we both released each other
burst out in laughter, smiles we shared
who knew we'd see each other again
all because of a blank stare

I want to engulf a soul with compassion
Making it inevitable to jilt me
Opening the shell they has been hiding in for so long
you had me in awe , your strength to stand
I want to penetrate you with endless love
Acquiring your energy through your smile
Your eyes drawing me closer to you
Close enough to where our bodies aren't physically
But spiritually in-sync
becoming languished in your absence
Feeling so strong I can taste you
In my sleep I can feel you
and in my life? is the real you!

I got a taste for something that can only be found between your legs....
I mean something more mental that physical
Mind blowing
I can easily slide between you like a snake slithers in the grass
Yet you hold your legs closed so tightly
The only thing capable of entering it is my mind
So i thought maybe i can penetrate your thoughts to leave you breathless
Entering you into a world where you no longer have control over your legs
Cause then again my only mission is to leave you breathless
Nice strokes, my tongue sliding down every curve
I try my hardest to keep you trapped in this world i created for you mentally
My words coming from my mouth so smooth
Smooth like every curve of ya body when i run my hands gently down ya hips
Iam trying to leave you breathless
Have you falling asleep
I wont see you til breakfast
You gave in

She was in a constant battle in her mind
when she woke up everyday
it was her proof of surviving the toughest war
against the strongest warrior

breathe slowly
feeling everything you are giving me
i close my eyes and breathe slowly
submitting to your demands
i begin to open myslef up completely
vulnerable
as you fill me with your loving energy
i am moved
with every breath, i take a step
eyes closed, you guide me
guide me closer to a path
a path to love again.

the reason why mr bean has problems
is he is a doofuss, top see the men ditched him because his nye party is
jus vinegar and tree twigs, how weird is that
the reason why the kids teased him at the pool
is because he was such a ****** making it all the way to the top
and then being scared nd climbing down
the reason why his girlfriend ditched him at xmas
is because instead of a ring, he gave her a picture of a man giving a woman a ring
and a hook and mr bean is a ****** because when he was
moving the hole in the wall, he didn’t ****** well check it
another thing that makes mr bean a ****** is the real world
you see at least i pay my way, mr bean is too much of a ****** to pay his way
and another thing that makes mr bean a ****** is at the putt putt golf course
he listened too much to the golf man as he followed the ball around town
i like mr bean teasing the men, but at the hotel there was truth in the matter
that teasers only win the battle, they never win the war because at the hotel
everyone was teasing poor old mr bean
and i liked him teasing the christian man in church, that was fun
mr bean was a ****** there, because he doesn’t look at it as teasing
his character has autism, and autistic people need to be watched
mind you mr bean was a TV character, but still, all guns blazing if we put him in the real world
he does remind me of myself, but i wasn’t that much of a ******
i was just a filthy kid, i am REFORMED OR BETTER TAKE YOUR PICK

the past cannot be undone
what is done is done
& what wasn't now is
acceptance is closure
the present is your gift
make sure the past isn't interfering with its growth
because you can go nowhere really fast
& your future is now dependent on the past
which of course won't last

"Goodnight, sweet dreams"- I used to say.
Then when I came back home
after staying at grandma's for the holidays with the cousins,
I listed their names as I went to sleep,
good night, sweet dreams accompanied with each.
"Good night-sweet dreams, Nani Ji"
"Good night to everyone whenever your night might come"
"Sweet dreams to everyone whenever your night might come"

i painted a picture on my wall
painted with the blood from my wrist
i wrote love with the knife she used
the knife she used to stab my heart
three times is all it took
and now i stare at this masterpiece
painted from a piece of me
a piece of me that was left broken
no one able to see
that it took my entire life to create it

It is all about the thing that is the last whisper you hear before you sleep.
It is all about the lingering feeling of a soft kiss on your lips before you snuggle the night away in his arm.
It is all about the random tide that hits you making you realise how much you're loved,
Like a silent sky people forget about sometimes but is always there when you look up.
It is all about the numbing chilly breeze on a wintery midnight, that makes you feel so much,
The roads and surroundings covered in orangish pink hues, slowly humming to themselves, luring you in a trance.
It is all about the soft wintery moon smiling down at you,
Or the science exams that bring out your artistic streaks
It is about those moment of tranquillity where every piece falls into the places they belong.
It is all about the stains you get after laying in the grass early morning
Each dew drop looks like a twinkling sun of their own.
It is about getting to taste heaven in your favorite flavor,
And enjoy the sun kiss your skin.
It is all about nani maa oiling your hair and your mother's eyes twinkling, while she says you're such a spoiled kid.
It is about the hope that someone else will get the door.
It is all about fluffy socks, sweater with hand drawn patterns
It is all about flushed cheeks, freezing hands in your friend's pocket
Like the snow flakes that fall,
Unique in their own way,
Every season with itself brings
Its own flavor and shades,
And though summer is well known for lighting a wildfire in everyone's heart,
And adrenaline rush of first love,
Winter stands elegantly, and let things run into a deeper course.

Please know , I didn’t leave because i wanted to. I let go because you left me no other choice. I’m never the type to give up so easily & drop you. I’m the type to give you chance after chance even if you’ve done me wrong. I’ll do whatever it takes to keep you however toxic you may be, even if it’s hurting me, breaking me, only because I don’t want to be remembered as the person who hurt you. As the person who “left.” I’m not the type to give up on people or let them go, but if ever I decide to, please understand it took all the air in me, all the energy in me, all the strength & courage to do so. I don’t give up easily. I don’t let go easily, but if you give me a million small reasons to walk away, I’ll walk away after my cup of chances runs out, knowing i gave you my all & i tried my best. Not giving me a good reason to stay, is a good enough reason for me to leave. So i hope one day you realize how much i truly did care for you. I promise you’ll miss me being there, putting up with your **** & refusing to give up on you. You’ll regret everything you’ve ever done to hurt me. Including all the damage you’ve caused. One thing will always remain true, i loved you , cared for you, respected you when all i got was pain. That’s a scar that will always stay.

i scream "HELLO"
as it echos from the walls
hoping it will reach you
reach your heart & mind
i scream "ARE YOU THERE?"
echos moving quickly until they disappear
are they even reaching you?
i guess if they were i wouldnt be searching for you
so as i sit here making echos hoping you could hear
my life is passing me by
ill never get this time back
so i realized you will never be anything more than an ECHO
an echo against the walls i have now built against you

my heart is tight in your grip
making my legs weaker & weaker
grasping for air as we escape each other
a love so strong we created peace

I started painting
painting a picture of two souls united as one
their smiles so effortless
their hearts beating each time the other is near
you could see their hearts smiling
their souls dancing with each other
sunny summer day
long walk on the park
i painted
painted them walking holding hands
he picks flowers and hands each to her every time
she sniffs them then smiles at him
smile brighter than the sun
i started painting
painting a picture in your mind
of my imagination
who knew i could control your mind like i do a paint brush

Welcome abroad Thameslink.
Grab a camera a wink at
Shaftsbury’s bootylicious dancers.
Pen in gear and know the answers to
the parade of pub quizzes.
Let your strands of raw seismic frizzes scream
on bonds lightening Thames RIB.
The Louis Vuitton wallet ‘on fleek’ for that crib inside
the Shards slender diamond belly.
Feet stay in groove with that Kidston welly against
the roaring mud at the wireless festival.
Pre dem soulful struts of de Notting hill carnival spicy
spirits, nani wines and **** kisses.
Safari hunt watch out for those hisses on
centre stage of the primeval in the zoo.
Grab my hand and come on boo steady
your bags and steady your feet on the thrilling
ride of Oxford street.
Reminisce its entirety and say goodbye.
As we take in our final view on the London eye.

Pila ka bulan ang gihulat na mutuyok,
akong paghulat kanimo,
Sama sa paghulat ko sa mga bituon,
Bituong hapsay na ang pagkatulog,
kuwang nalang kay ikaw ang mahulog,
Ang kainit sa buntag, ug ang kabugnaw sa gabii,
Naghulat sa kahangturan, kunus-a man ko nimo matagaan ug silbi?
ang mga minghoy na tuyok sa naghilak na bulan,
dili makaapas sa imong makidlatong dagan,
sa akong paghulat kanimo,
Kuhaon ko ang kidlat ug ihapak sa imong agtang na grabeng kasipat,
Wa nani lain padulngan, padung nako pagkabuang
Guniti ko, guniti ko’g tarung,
Kay murag kusog kusog baya akong pagkahagbong.
