I AM ME

Is it just me
Is it real
Is it a mere feeling 
Well I think it is real 

There's nothing I do that is good 
You think I'm rude 
You think I'm unrefined better-said "crude" 
Yet you think I'm always up to no good 

Everything I say is faulty 
My food is salty 
Even my voice is awful 
And my mouth is lie-full 

I think you expect too much 
I'm human so yes it is too much 
Perfect is not human 
Perfect is superhuman 

You always want perfection 
I am an exception 
I am not perfect 
Neither am I so imperfect 

Maybe you are just too good for me 
Somewhere deep down I feel it 
There's no perfect here 
There is me here 

Maybe somewhere 
Somewhere out there 
There is that perfect you want 
But "good-news" is she is not here

HE IS GOD

Prince of peace He is
Who is this He?
He is God
He is 
He was
Yet is to come

He is a Man of valour
A Man of splendour
King of Honour
He made you and I 
I am the apple of His eye
His daughter

He doesn't need our Praise
He deserves it
Lift your voice
Lift your hands
Lift your spirit
Give Him Praise

Ever heard of the Holy Trinity?
The Father
The Spirit
The Son
Are you confused?
That's the mystery of Him
One you can't decipher

He is here
He is there
Yet everywhere
With me
With you
Sees all yet still loves
Knows all yet still forgives

Despite all you do
He only asks of one thing
All He asks is your Praises
Give it to Him
He deserves every bit of it.

IN LOVE WITH YOU

What is love without you
It's like a rainbow with no color
Food with no flavor
A sail-ship with no sailor
A world without a creator

What is this love without you
It's like a dry river
A song without a singer
An urethra without a sphincter

You will always mean the world
The universe
The sky
The earth
The oceans
To me

There is absolutely no love with no you
We are going to tour
To soar
And more
Together
For we belong together
And we are forever.

My seed of love

I look around everything is beautiful
Again I search within
My view still depicts beauty
I keep wondering
Wondering if everything is really beautiful, like what I think I see

My heart says yes
I do a re-search
Just to be sure there was no error
An error that could cloud my thoughts
Same view, even feels better

Then my head comes in again
I then realize it's not an optical illusion
It's not a mere mirage
It's not Physics
It's real

Guess what is yielding such a view
It's the fruit
Which fruit could it be?!
It's not edible
But its feelable
And planted like every other seed
not on loamy soil
on hearty soil

It happens to be the same seed
The one I planted some months ago
The seed we underestimate
It turned out to be the seed of love
It has grown to yield beautiful fruits.

love happened

LOVE HAPPENED

so love finally happened
our hearts decided to cling
they clinged so hard
our love could move mountains

this love that happened
it meant alot
it meant never giving up
it was worth more than a thousands pieces
of dollars of gold

love that could hold rains
love that happened when I was not prepared
love that took my whole being
love that made me love me more

love that gave joy
the joy knows no bounds
the joy that makes us one
love happened while I was busy making plans
but well it did happen


this love can be compared to nothing
though it took me by surprise
I love the feeling
It wasn't planned
But love did happen

SHE HAD HER OWN HER



All she had was boy children
beautiful boys
promising boys
they gave her joy

she was grateful
grateful for them
she was tasteful
tasteful for a pretty girl like her

She prayed
but did not get strayed
she was thirsty for her
so she asked Him for her

Finally her prayers got an answer
The answer was her
the one she wanted
she was grateful again
her sons were even happier
their dad was the happiest

she was their joy
and hers was unspeakable
she gave thanks
thanks for her own her
the one daughter she loved so much

They all worked hard for her to grow
she's growing
she's blossoming
they pray she never withers
they love her that much

she is their flower
the pride in their own barbados 
the only daughter
the only sister
she gets all the love
that is the her she wanted
the her that is growing

the sweet part of little her
makes big her
happy she asked for her
and she has her
The birth of her!

THE PERSON IN YOU


There is this person right in that body
That's the real you
The you who sees beyond the world
The you who knows you can make it
The you who believes you can do it
The you who cherishes the outside you
The person in you is the real you
The real you 
The you that knows your strength
The you that know your weaknesses
The you that loves you
The person in you is that voice in your head
The voice that takes you to the top
That one that says yes even when people say no
The voice that says you're beautiful
The one that reminds you how much of a winner you are
The real you is that you
The you that never lets you down
Even when the outside you gives up
That is the person in you

THE LAST TIME I CRIED: PEACE


The last time I cried
I had a need to sigh
Just to see the light
I heard a door open
It was the door to my heart
I let out a  sigh
Yes again I sighed
Because I couldn't let it die
It was my heart
My very own heart
That cried 
It cried
Cried because there is no peace
Children have no peace
Adults have no peace
I have lil peace
I tried to pick a piece
To write a piece of my heart 
Hear it is, my heart
I cried for my heart 
It ached, all for peace
The world needs peace I cried.


Write me a poem

Have you ever had sometime write you a poem?!
Some fantastic lines
Which find their way through your spine
By one with whom you dine
At sometime when you need the rhymes
And you feel up in the sky
Like God dropped you there!

TIMES OF LOVE



There was a time when love meant the world
We all knew it was from the Lord
It was no subject to sword
It always kept its word

We live in a time when love means nothing
We know it has nothing
It doesn't prove a thing
We pretend it's not our thing
We think love makes us void
And feel it leaves us empty

We need that time when love would mean a lot
When a word of love can crack a nut
When love becomes more than a thought
When it becomes a way of life to us
When we go the extra mile to prove its worth
Because that is what love is.
