Chemistry

By the mention of your name
My blood burns with anxiety
My heart skips with excitement
A smile appears from nowhere
The elation that you bring is pure

Love burns in my eyes 
The suddenly you mention your love
The reaction in my body increases
I keep burning with desire
And wish the feeling never disappears

Words cannot explain
Am glad I have your heart
Am not penitent for my systems
For the reaction in my body chemistry
There is no penance for the chemistry in me

A boast to my friends
They say you are every girls dream
I dream of your affection
You really are passionate
I promise you my hand to hold

There is no feeling without you
No chemistry in any other man
Always history in other experiences
Losing you is a torture to my life
A death to my systems.

Bright Future I Hear

Tired to success
Bright future I hear….. They say that’s sweet
Only smart people get there. Like me by the way
Well the smartness has a price 
You can see the price; many books, heavy
I chase the future with a heavy load
Making smartness something I will want to question

It’s very helpful but exhausting
Making me lazy and tired
I have thought more than once; to quit
Can’t I be having fun and ecstatic? 
I am beginning to ask questions
Are teachers really fair?

So I opened my bag or bags 
And I found each name had siblings
Many math’s books, English……so many
And the more you have the smart you look
But it’s tiring, so exhausting
Must these siblings travel together?

I also looked at my play time
Oh sorry I have none; I don’t even have fun anymore
Now that is just the final straw
I start hating smart, it drains me
I am not complaining too much
Smartness is costly takes energy and time

I am still so young, I can’t help it
All work and no play… that’s right 
It’s a helpful exhaustion but I have to
Then I look at myself and realize I have to
Someone will make me. They say it’s for the best
I am beginning to hate this...do I have to?

Bright Light

He was what I never wanted; he was all I was against
Like a strange enemy I hated him, ever thing he was I hated
I never paid attention, his presence destroyed my comfort
I thought I had better things, things that will never involve him
He lights a candle, he lights a bright light

He made people laugh, I slept when the laughed
He tried to explain something, I wrote something different
To me it was noise, to others it was knowledge
I did not know the future, yet it was a matter of a few years
He lights a candle, he lights a bright light

I waited for his misfortune, it never came
I waited for his resignation, I saw a promotion
 Until It was time to leave, I was finally away from him
I could forget all about him, I turned the page
He lights a candle, he lights a bright light

I saw him again, my heart jumped
Trying to flashback, he could not even remember
Just a simple talk and he was mine, he changed all that was dead
We crossed the fine line; it was separating love and hate
He lights a candle, he lights a bright light

I owe my life to him, my achievements he inspire
In failure he lifts me up, in success he shares a smile
He now makes me laugh, he sleeps when I laugh
There are no ways to thank him; I owe him more than that
He lights a candle, he lights a bright light

Peace

As annoying as a red pimple
That pricks so much as a needle
That makes people to meddle
Just to make the peace habitable

Then after the war is indefinable
The issues are put on the table
This proves the parties only gaggle
And for connection they need a cable

For peace promotion he breaks a bubble
At the table there is a snack of an apple
Though the parties are fragile
They should have had a principle

He pretends to be humble
Just so they could make him reliable
Because to promote peace he is able 
By serving wisdom with a ladle

For peace promotion you don’t need a fable
Just so you can know what is abominable
Some things are so calculable
Don’t wait for someone to cajole

Hero

if you were a bird
i would call you an eagle
if you were an animal 
i would brand you a lion
if you were a mountain
to me you are mount everest

you have done so great
your achievements my inspiration
your determination my vision
your goal is my mission
you are my hero

there are things that motivate
no doubt you are my hero
you make known your desires
and increase my ambitions
i will want to be like you
am working to follow your footsteps
you are my hero.

Undone Mistake

Baby Melvin ; jubilation for you
We almost lost you
But we stopped mummy from killing you
Now mummy is happy to have you

When daddy left for good
Confusion and anger destroyed mummy
She did not know what to get you
So she wanted to make you an angel

Baby Melvin so determined
You yelled out and we came
To stop the monster called abortion
And give you a chance to bloom

Ten years down the line
You are a Sunday school leader
You win drama awards
You are best at your class and school

If we did not get you
If the monster abortion had won
You would not have been the source of our joy
The one we look up to for better lives

Thanks to you we will stop the monster
We will see more melvins
The monster must die
Every Melvin deserves a chance.

I Speak For the Innocent

i speak for the innocent
who do nothing but cry
they have no power to express
they are turned into cheap trash
and blinded with painful life
i speak for the innocent

men have turned the angels
to sex objects and servants
rapists are let go free
they have money to buy a hideout
does money but self dignity?
i speak for the innocent

they lurk in the dark
just to rape,hurt and destroy
does it matter to them?
what if i was the one
to subject their innocent daughters
into that painful act 
i speak for the innocent

they have no creativity
or any sense of conscience
they luck critical thinking
and think of their body desires
destroying lives of the innocent
i speak for the innocent

all they do is induce pain
causing tears to the innocent
our day will come
when men; who act like dogs
will come to us
they will wish to be forgiven
the voice of the innocent
is waiting for the moment
i speak for the innocent.

Nothing To Write

On a comfy small chair
Scratching my long not silky hair
Of cause am an African its just flair
The hair is just an identity like a Blair
But nothing to write not even an affair

Am talented I wonder why I despair
Writing comes from home am an heir
I should know what to write not despair
But I try to bring my mind from there
Where I all I see and feel is just glair

I try to go out and get some air 
Nothing to write just thoughts that are not clear
Instead of going in circles I feel squares
I wish my brain was nice enough to spare
Nothing to write so I just stare

The chair is lonely am almost dropping a tear
Writing is all I thought was to me fair
But I lost ideas none is near
I know no one set up a snare
It’s just that am not lucky so I stare

Nothing to write is not fair
But I will wait on this comfy chair
To be able to make my talent clear
I want to write fast as dear 
About the day I had nothing to share.

Barbie

my barbie so red
she runs fast and silent
her body so strong;very strong
my barbie knows the way

i drive her through town
and men stand to stare at her
i tell them shes my pet and ride
my barbie knows gets me to work

she knows i hate cleaning
she keeps off the dirty
smoothly through the mad 
roughly through clean water

men want her so much
but i can never share or sell
shes is my pride;my savings
barbie the car i protect

during sun shes tinted
when it rains am covered
when i want casual shes open
my barbie gets me; my car.

No Future

I see a dark night
I look for a flash light
Am stuck in the past
No Street light
To guide me through the night.

I feel I have lived longer
Longer than I thought
Stuck in the world that’s gone
Stuck in the place where it’s no more
Looking for my light

I get inspirations
Also get all motivations
Every step I take seems lost
Every move I take is lame
There is no light to the future

Everything is a struggle
Making it hard and complicated
To even try to light a flashlight
Stuck in the dark; the past
Thinking of the future

Waiting for directions
And push from all sides
Looking for a flashlight
To light my future
Or else there is no future.
