Broken Treasure

In a room so bare, I fix my gaze, A wall awaiting a frame’s embrace, Yet I remain seated, lost in thought, Contemplating where this art be brought.

Above my bed or by my chair, To showcase its beauty with tender care, I yearn to find the perfect spot, Where its radiance won’t be forgotten.

Upon floating clouds, my vision aligns, Imagining the frame where it truly shines, But as morning graces the world anew, The frame still lies, unnoticed and askew.

Today, oh today, night’s curtain descends, I stumble upon a sight that rends, My precious frame, shattered and torn, In fragments scattered, dreams forlorn.

Now I must find the time to mend, The splinters scattered, chaos to tend, For on my floor they lay, a scattered array, Awaiting my touch to bring order and sway.

With gentle hands and patient care, I gather the shards, aware of repair, For this frame that holds my treasured art, Shall rise again, healed from its part.

And when it finds its place anew, I’ll gaze upon it, as dreams come true, In every crack, a story reborn, A testament to resilience, worn and torn.

So let the night yield to morning’s light, As I mend the fragments, piece by piece, slight, For my frame shall rise, stronger than before, A testament of strength, forevermore.

We Can Be So Ungrateful

Why can’t there be a perfect moment to revel in the glory? Why can’t I be happy? I am just not successful enough I am stressed and why’s goes on. We go home to a warm meal sleep in comfortable beds have all our basic needs met, yet we are unfulfilled. I walk along the streets hungry mothers, hungry children, males that have lost hope because they have no idea where the next meal is coming from; neither do they have shelter. when I observed these things; It’s hard not to be depressed. It’s moment like these remind me of how ungrateful we can be. If they had a chance to walk an inch in our shoe their gratitude would be far greater than this whining nature that we portray; they would have already learned what it is to be at their lowest.
I am not saying we should settle and not try to go above and beyond our achievements; I am simply saying be thankful for every moment of every day. Change what we can change in our lives, what we can’t leave it to our almighty God he alone has the power to do so.
Life at times take us to desolate places and leaves us with testimonies to share when it takes us to where we should be.

 

In The Rough

My absence has made my heart feel empty

Not able to share what’s happening in my world

My mind was dragged to another place

A place that demanded my attention

A place that will force you to look on no other.

In this place my cries for freedom go unanswered.

But yet again I have escaped,

I have broken the chains

Hoping never to be captured again.

The divided

Reflection why are you mad with me

You throw punches

I stand tall and fight back with all my might

You know I deserve better

But yet you hate me

Only because you want to take control

But that’s not me I cannot sell my soul

Please don’t be mad with me

We can be one in peace

Just choose my way and you too will be great

We won’t be destroyed in any one’s bitter fury

Because we would love each other and that would be unity

Don’t wait too long, I await your response

Because only together we can be one.
