I Am Me

Edit
i am me
by Ty Ngachira on Saturday, December 31, 2011 at 6:24pm

I am the longshot
I am the one they never so coming
I am the life beat of a heart once dying
I am the old horse that keeps kicking
i am truth in a world that keeps lying
I am the runner who though the race ends keeps running
I am the dancer who keeps moving though the cutains falling

i am the longshot
i am the raindrop that split the earth
i am the straw that broke the camels back
i am the bullet the vest couldnt catch
i am the arrow the armour couldnt stop
i am the pebble that cracked goliaths skul
i am the hair grown back on Samsons head

i am the longshot
i am the manifestation of a revolution
i am the stmbol for a new generation
i am the underdog who becomes champion

am  picked not just chosen

i am the voice they cant mum
i am the song hope cant stop but hum

iam the last of a dying breed
yet its hope that i bleed
am he whose passion is a creed
created by gods decree

i am the f that made lame hot like flame
i am the g that made low glow

i am change,
i am difference,
i am uniqueness

i am wine from The true vine
i am what u cannot be

I AM ME

Tempted

Trying to escape eternal fire,

 but she manipulating my desire,

 strong like samson but she be delilah.

 Swear wanted to run joseph potiphar 

but i stayed david bathsheba.

 Need more than a favour i need da saviour.

Love Forgot Them

i see it in the girl who cries alone in the loo,

its in da boy who fights to keep in the tears too,

they fell heart first fast for their crushes,

crushes who then fell their hearts to the sound of crashes.

 

those to whom february the fourteen,

is not lovely valentine but lonely haloween,

ever since they were jus but teens,

thats how its always been.

 

when love like stars is everywhere but near.

 

wandering cain-like soul accursed,

only to be beheld never to be beloved,

 

the child santa never knew existed,

the woman to whom cupid is blinded,

the man whose love fate is twisted.
