The time has come, for me to fray
the long lost fortune peace and joy
and i peep all around to see a ray
to give me hope and stop to cry
in the face of dispair, i will still try
it feels like hell and i need to fly

am about to burst and am full of thought
then if she left to me its draught
the touch of her hand and a kiss so hot
swimming basking and the fish we caught
fear and doubt with love we fought
she always escaped to what we ought

then came the insighter and he seemed brighter
taking her out and treating her better
Using a phone when i used letters
things were hard especially with a competitor
forgot me complete together with her litter
it seemed to her there was nothing sweeter

after utelizing the better of her best
he disposed her and then left
she had some pain in the chest
when she came in serch for rest
she was mine but we had to test
to avoid being hung like a nest

A drop of blood and a little buffer
recalled how our children would suffer
if through ignorance our life was vapour
my test was a line and my partners twice
why would life be so very  unfair?
her episode was so shortlived

yet she left me huge a burden
to the kids we had i was both parents
just be cause she wouldn't heed
even doctors advice on adherence
all in all i had to say goodbye
coz she was mine for the time we spent

what i am now going through
is a fruit of ignorance and disobedience
my urge my prayer,
that not one falls into the same
it's so easy to say that,
lets avoid the idea of shame
by first escaping the blame
by keeping ourselfs tame.

My Serch

I'm searching for someone.
The trees loom over my head.
My eyes are open, but they feel shut.
This road in front of me is long.
But, still, I go on.

I can hear the loud clap of thunder,
And smell the scent of rain blowing in the wind.
I do not let my legs tremble for I do not fear.

I've been down this lonely road before.
You could almost say we are friends.

No, we are closer.
Some might say I gave birth to this forsaken road.
Yet, still, I search.

I cry out your name into the black abyss!
All I hear is an echo in return.
My own voice mocks me.

The storm begins.
The road goes on.
The trees grow taller.
My search for you continues.

I was on the sea shore, alone and lonely,
In the middle of the milling crowd,
Wandered on the length of the shore,
Having nowhere to go and hide, and
Having no one to wait and watch,
Lost in the memories of the days bygone,
Hoping for a ray of light in the sky yonder,
Saundered in the wildness of night,
Alone and lonely like a soulless shade,
Oh, My dear, I still serch for your love,
