Against All Odds Poems

Invictus 

The stories that shows the resilient spirit,
against all odds and rationally is empiric.
It is not where the hero is seeking attention,
it’s the nameless person providing redemption.
The living urge in purity of spirit, without we could not exist,
only by lost...Read More

Against all odds a long-divorced couple...

       are back in each other's arms.

          Ah, second chance at love!

Arise O Compatriots
The time is near when we head for the ballots
The time when we decide for a new revolution
Or maybe another time to renew corruption

Genocides birthed out of hatred everywhere
Many voices are silenced out of fear
And all day long,...Read More

Deep beneath the road of life
There lies an unshakable Hope!
Certain moments in life will wake you up and 
Shake the core of your existence
Life woke me up and showed me
The beauty of an expected adventure!
As a creature of time the...Read More

The chill of the morning air startles the soul. 
A disastrous night brought hot flashes and sweat. 
What is the dream and what is reality?
A mind torn into two spirits, into two people.

Trap me or hide me I'll find my way 
By walking on road full of thorns 
I'm weaving head full of dreams
Cut my wings or put me inside
I'll fight till I die
Cause I'm a woman with dreams
I chose to fight...Read More

Of all the best, there’s many at rest
What matters most, they stood their post
They are the brave, they did not waive
To those who serve, such honor they deserve

Charging from the front line, more troops followed behind
Never in the clear, did...Read More

My Daily Depression
(3/20/2019)

I see shapes of gray
And black too
I wonder what it’s going to be like
For me and you
When we lose it all
Especially, our furr babies of love
What would we do?
Would we still believe in above?
What can we do, to...Read More

All wrapped up in a body that’s perfectly flawed, 
grey hair showing up as the sunshine hits her head.
Imperfect skin, 
pores are prominent,
Wrinkles emerged.
Brown colored complexion, 
waved its glory to the sun.
Unafraid to be blushed,
a middle aged liege who’s been...Read More

some has been on my mind ever since i was nine 
others got crushed one after another with time 
yet again i strive looking for the one most...Read More

Arthritic oak tree, each branch’s twisted finger, takes my mind to another reality; I have visited far away realms, through your stories.  You have lived century’s worth of life and time’s left its fingerprints on your ancient face. ...Read More

And in the twilight we meet
All the pains we retreat
Against all odds down that street
Let us accept our defeat

Love is not ours to keep...Read More

I lose when I don’t  play and I win out, when against all odds I play.

You are a pillar,
Therefore you don’t need a healer
But an ordained preacher
Open your ears, your heart...
For this is a new season.

Forget about yesterdays pain
Focus on today's gain
It's not everyday that you experience a friendly rain!
Time and again,
Storms do persist, be...Read More

'Going going gone 
Says the ticking clock
For each breaking day draws 
A man closer to his end.'

It’s already proven
Engraved in heaven that two faiths can make it
Two souls stood the test of time
Against all odds they reached their prime
Love so true 
It’s something I can really smile about it!
They were not afraid of the assessment that
They...Read More

They say she is irresistible
And she is too quick sometimes 
Or she is too chaotic sometimes.

She says I am what I am
She is the one who stands against all odds
And proves herself unique and confident in every role.
She is the...Read More

Around thirty and you think you can insult me
Social media like WhatsApp 
Giving young teachers an outlet in secret! 
Talking about me and
You are hoping your bark can affect me!

I hope the real teachers know 
This is some of the...Read More

Things can get greasy
Life is a long beautiful process...Read More
