Humphrey Haji Luvumbi Poet Free verse

Faith

I'm sorry I don't share in your glory
Glory of faith you so dearly cherish
You can't blame me, look at me
Tell me how it feels being helpless 

Cause I came to this world with a mark
A mark that now has scarred my body and heart 
Tell me then do you still think I can have that faith
While everyday with this condition is a gamble 

I'm glad for you if you've found salvation
It's good that you've seen the light 
I see it too, but I walk with all this darkness
The light only surrounds me 

If you feel you know how it feels,
Please stop right there
You don't know what it feels being taken apart
Knowing that you that bad apple from the garden 

And don't think I carry that burden with me
I'm living on free mode this days
I learnt that I can't fight it
It's just how life was planned for me 

So forgive me if I don't share in your faith
You've not been tested as much as I have
You haven't seen the emptiness of life beyond
Cause you die hoping for an afterlife, but all I saw was darkness
