Surrender

It's official!
Tagging on my conscience like a tide away from shore
I once stood blinded, wounded and poor
Now am good coz am binded, moulded and newer
I never knew love like this
Never thought one could have it like this
With a downing of my sword,
A drowning of His word,
And a drawing of pure water where once was mad.
I know I lost the battle in readiness now,
To remove all hustles in steadiness vow,
I lost He won
That I may gain the eternal life, His word is based on!

Life Writings

Through the pen i hear my soul
And my heart stops as the ink spills
on the paper, germinating ideas that
grow and feed the innocent ignorant
young mind! "Napenda kuandika!"
A random thought from a random mind
"Naogopa kuandika!" the fear gripped mind
of an impotent writer!
I speak for the pen in the silence
of the ink spill
I form a new entity in the blank
exerpts of nothingness.
Something comes up, "Mafikira ya mwandishi", "Mistari, mizani,
sukari ukurasani"Sweetness all
through the pages, existence in
blankness!
The inkigation fertiles the page
and printings grow and grow
and show the fruits of random
thoughts galore.
I feed you with my writing!
I feed you with life!

For Print...

The Philosophy of print
that dictates my writing
to a place where ink
runs through my veins
and multiplies to multiples
of synonyms and rhyme
and similes that show
the rightings (writings) that stood through
time.
Through wars and disease
through pressure and release
through the tensions of other
forms of communication
that steal the beauty and life
that speaks and lives and
fights through the pen
For Print!

The Lonely Walk

Random thoughts walk through me
And I describe my ineptitude with
The soles of my feet
With my invisible army, I roam the streets
With the insatiable thirst of
The souls of my fleet
I do not know you but I feel you
I do not see you but I hear you
You walk with me in my darkest shells
In the corners with me,
In the murk and hell,
See me swell in eternity
Expect my rebirth in maternity.
I choose my words wisely
My steps swiftly
My magic full of wisdom
See me write wryly,
With a smile across my being.
I fieghn eternal right
swing the tempest tide aside
Philosophical enchantment becomes
My patient, my bedside manner
Becomes a controversy.
Walk with me,
Teach me,
Swear no more of your
Absence from me as...
I roam the streets,
Me,
Free!

Unending Love

i might be down, but i know i'll rise
i may be low now but then i'll be high
there may be tears but soon i'll be dry
and i may be weak even tempted to cry
but i know am strong and i'll walk by
for even if the path is treacherous and tough
and the obstacles that come be dangerous and rough
i got them that care and hold me near
and Him that is there always and forever.

but then i got a plan
a vendetta and a brilliant one
in two lines up above
i see his unending love!

I Rise

As I rise I realize my cheeks hurt
from the beat flat of the line that
turned the beep beep to beeeep
just before the roadcross was deafened by a beep
Or a honk to awaken me from my slumber
smack me silly!
darkness turns lightness As fullness evacuates emptiness
and...
A new spirit creeps within me
Renewing every tendon and every joint within me
Finally the puppet becomes a real boy
as Pinocchio thanks Geppetto.
My heart filled with readiness to reach
And readiness to preach
So I swallow my body from toe to head
and spit a fresh being, the old is dead.
With the help of the black pen
the score is nil-ten
The devil gets nothing coz now am a fisher of men
the word as my hook
all the verses in the book
just as my life does He look
So do I smile to realize
My cheeks no longer hurt and so I RISE!

Into The Light

i no longer feel lost
abandoned or ignored
i no longer feel the cold
or the odd stare of the bored

i'm one with the high
the light shining by
as i watch in unison with the brothers in the sky
i fly in the Glory
of spirit and truth

with what shall i shout with
to who shall i sing to,
of His mercies and love
that shine from above

i no longer feel enpty
i no longer feel the pain
i no longer feel the darkness
for i'm deep INTO THE LIGHT.
