"Why can't love be made easier, he said?" "I love you, you love me". Words kept dripping down my friends heart, He was in love with the entire being of an African woman, She stole his heart, and maybe his attention too, He appraises her like a Queen and all he wants is to be her king The sunrise reminded him of her,and the sun set gets him ready to adore her My friend was in love with a woman who wasn't me, And like flames I saw the light in his eye, He was ready to soar like an eagle above the storm for her Like a dove he waited patiently for her, Trying to muddle her heart with His love, Night spent under the Banana leaves, Drinking from the dew and hoping she will say yes! How can I help such a heart willing to love? A heart full of acceptance. Then I realised love is a choice A choice that shouldn't be rushed, a choice that needs to be nurtured  Either yes or No! I'm more happy For now my friend can love passionately,  Without end For...

 I watch the morning cloud glide into each other, Like lovers hands entwined in romance. Then i thought about the first time I met you, Your eyes captured my heart. And yes! Those spaces between your teeth made way for me to say hi! You are more adorable than the diamond I own, More precious than the Gold I earn. Like the Lilli's I choose to nurture you, Like roses I choose to cherish you, Your nose pointed fact about you to me. Your kiss makes my body sizzle, And even though you didn't speak I could hear your voice. You are the escape route I follow, You gave me strengths when I'm down, And out of millions of damsel,you only dance to my beat I may not be a good dancer but you make me spin like bird in the air. You are the reason behind my smile,the laughter and the joy Your skin is as soft as wool,sparkling like lightening Your shadow ignite under the blue sky I watch your legs swing into spaces met for only you, All I felt was love. And If you have a past,have...

I know,  I 've been too busy, But I'm sorry... I'm sorry for working so hard on my path and neglecting yours For the times I didn't stop by because I wanted to beat the traffic... I'm sorry for giving excuses that were unmeasurable Times I hung up on you trying to face my desk Times I said No when all you needed was seconds, I can't believe I did that to you, But Hey! I'm ready to make it up. I'm sorry for walking past you without saying hello,like I didn't care I'm sorry I left you out in the cold when you  needed a warm shelter Days you only wanted to talk about big things that bothers you... I allowed you carry the heavy load of pain alone... I'm sorry I didn't make it to the tournament,  I was busy fixing things that didn't matter And even if they do I could have done it later... For letting you down, I say sorry For rushing out,  I'm sorry I'm sorry I acted cool like a fish trying to swim out of trouble Like a bird flying...

It a new dawn for you. Years before now you were somewhere far, You traveled like an eagle into the belly of your momma. You grew eating from her remnant, And finally she presented you to the world. You are like a Lilly growing along the path. Your skin glow at the sight of the sun. Your smiles are enticing, And the confidence you wear makes you look much elegant. I know you've got lot of fears running through your veins,but Your smile always cover for it. I admire your courage, The laughter you never withhold. So let your birthday bring you lot of berries  Let the music play so loud, B'cus it your day,be happy and merry. Happy Birthday to you! PoetRuth

The story that completed me is the story I'm gonna share Years ago I wore pant designed with curiosity Hair bands made of pity With a matching shirt that reads she's too gullible I spend time alone in a corner feeling too ashamed to unvail my identity Wasn't sure of who I was so I kept jumping into spaces that didn't fit pretends was my best friend,oh! I Mean the only soul I got I freely gave what I had but held on to candies that weren't met for all Even though I looked strong I was bullied by those way too young to hit me Crying like a baby was all I knew best  And it didn't help, no it didn't So I crawled out of peoples Lives when I stop feeling comfortable Like a candle stick I held on to what I really felt within Before I clocked 15 have got lot of fears seating in my heart Each time I cough it like a bomb been released Into the universe Like a dream come through all my fear started to manifest it existence And yeah!I saw them coming but couldn't fi...

   FEAR From the island of peace, I draw out the waters that sank down in the ocean. That which kept me from living amidst humans... Fear! It's been decades I got engaged to this person. We are the most lovable breeds,  you can ever find. She's responsible for every moment I shrink, for every moment I fail. I tried to embrace success,but her jealous eyes got me pinned down I'm too gullible to let her down,she never wants me to talk to any one else I struggle to handle every action and reaction that occur when we go out,because her words are always final. She is an epitome of beauty fading away  like flames of fire.. The reason I couldn't speak to you the other day was because of her And yes I needed that job but she told me I wouldn't get it.. She said I was not good enough,that all I deserve was her. The day I told you no was because she whispered into my ear that you were only gonna hurt me. My flesh is wearing away like the dust in the desert Now I need creams of...

Where were you when the mountains splited? When I was stung by depression Bitten by pain Crushed by frustration? Where were you when I needed a listening ear,to hear my silence Where were you when I needed a helping hand,when I needed comfort and a cover? You were there but never here,you stood close but still far... I needed more than just a hug,it only lasted seconds I needed a Friend to call my own,someone I could share my deepest secret with But you needed more,more that my desires became blured And all that matters was you.... Where were you when I was broken? When I struggled with addictions I was ashamed of Where were you when I couldn't understand life any More Days I needed just a tap on my back,and a genuine smile from you saying all will be well.. Where were you, days I brought pills to sleep because I couldn't comprehend the pain I felt inside of me. Where were you? I still wonder where you are, and I hope you come back soon!!! The river won't stop flowing and t...

I know you deserve more than a penny More than what your skin can fetch you when you lay it down But please manage Massage your hands to manage the canvas, so you can draw out  your future Let the pencil never fall to the ground, else it break like a candle Put on the discipline robe to enable you stay awake when you wish to sleep... You can't lay comfortably like a chick and expect to work like a dog Drop the selfish garment of excuses saying it never enough Use what you've got to add up to what you have Its never enough until you strive hard to make something out of little.. Run more miles Burn more candles But never kill your dreams on the platter of it never enough.. Please manage.... PoetRuth
