NEVER GIVE UP
Ooh yes, I am talking to you,
You should never give up.
Wait! What! Say it again!
Yes, do not give up on whatever life-changing dreams you are busy with.
Persuasion, persistence and endurance is the key.
Self-confidence, self-determination and visualisation are the processes.
But, let go of those bad habits,
Also, drop off that negativity stubbornness, self-pity, etc.
Replace the above with humbleness.
Yes, be humble in whatever you do and encounter.
Look at you,
You feel like you have been targeted.
Targeted for what and by whom?
Take some time off and be silent.
Listen to your innermost side.
Frame up that burning desire to excel again, again and again.
You, yes you, can I call you my friend?
My friend, never give up!
You have what it takes.
Stop!
Listen again, pause for a minute, can you hear the silence?
Are you eager to find out what is next?
Next, it is your starting time to continue shaping your life’s chapter,
Get up now, start with that activity you wanted to do a long-time ago.
Never give up, you own your dreams and owe them to yourself.

TOGETHER WE ARE UNIQUE
By Erastus "Popyeny" Shipuleni
It is not about me and you, never been.
It is about us, together as one,
That together we are unique
Yet together we are un separable
It is not about you neither me,
It about the unit and bold bond
Together we are strength
Share ideas to fight this pandemic
Let us unite during this difficult moment
Let's work together for the better tomorrow,
Combine our different ideas, merge as one
We are one from creation anyway
Why splitting ourselves?
Is this an opportunity to appreciate each other,
or a chance to know each other?
Although born as unique, still support each other
Practising humanity.
Hence, Be alert, Be connected.
Adhere to set regulations
Practice safety first
Be safe, stay at home

Erastus Popyeny Shipuleni Poem
When you look at me, what do you see?
When you look at me, what do you expect?
When you look at me, what do you need from me?
May be, I may not be perfect,
May be, I may not be your type,
May be, I may not be your kind,
Nor your friend, neither your like,
But, ooh no,
We are not the same
Nor, are we similar,
Neither are we a like,
However, we share the same commonalities,
We are all people, made from fresh & blood,
We are the mighty creators,
We both breathe,
We both drink & eat,
We both reproduce,
Yooyoo taa!!!
Do not forget, we both release,
Ooh yes!!!
Clear my mind,
Opened up my mind,
Let me see through.

My mouth, learn to shut-up (Wisdom Advice)
My mouth, learn to shut-up.
It is time to listen.
There is time to murmur.
There is time to keep quite.
When you are ask to talk,
#You run marathon faster than Frenkie Fredrick.
When you are ask to explain,
#You read books and novel from your head.
What if asked for advice,
#Ooh no, you explore the enclopedia map first.
When one look for directions,
#Soo!!! You take them for a City Tour.
What make you tick?
Are you out to prove a point?
What do you see that others cannot see?
What do you hear that others don't?
#Sharing is caring .
#The world is so hungry for fresh logic.
#People see, yet can not see.
#People hear, yet hear less.
How will one make them see?
What will make them hear?
#It is to stop talking and listen.
#It is not all about one mouth.

Erastus Popyeny Shipuleni Poem
By Erastus "Popyeny" Shipuleni
The heart is the Island inside me and you.
It speaks the language of its own, have its own way of doing reacting.
It feeds on whatever..., what is that whatever?
The five basic senses of a human life, namely, touch, sight, hearing, smell, and taste.
It is easily angered, quick to forget and humble to forgive.
Its storage capacity is unlimited, now, & then release anger and frustration, yet it's actually longing for peace and harmony.
If it could be possible for one to know what the heart is made of! Know what make it tick!
One would be able to read and understand the heart logic, then, peace will be granted among all of us.
The reality is that one heart is an Island that one must develop to meet one desire.
What language does the heart speak, then?
As I am thirsty, to empty my desire to speak with the heart any time desire.
Which sound does the heart hear too, for me also to hear, to be able to transact?
My soul!!!
Speak to the heart to let me in!
May I enter through the world of thought running in the heart, or is the heart running and raising its own marathon?
My Heart!
Allow me in whatever you are going through.
Hence, Knock, knock, knock at my heart door!
Who's knocking? The heart asks.
It's me your innermost soul friend (Subconscious-mind),
Come-in, my innermost soul friend, ...
The truth is when.
* The heart speaks to the subconscious-mind, innermost soul friend listens and respond.
* Ability to hear the hearts’ innermost soul language.
* Resulting in the subconscious-mind filter and recording what is known as personal character.

I am your shoulder
I am your comfortable shoulder
Your pillow to rest you’re head on
Yes, ooh yes, come to rest
You are welcome to cry
You are welcome to sneeze
You are welcome to let go
You are not crazy
Surrender your exhaustion off
Let the fatigue disappeared
Refresh up, your earn it
I am your shoulder, your comforter.

Merging the trinity
By: Erastus “Popyeny” Shipuleni
@December 2020
Not always do I get what I want,
Neither does my request materialise as requested,
Nor desire implemented as desired.
Do I know why these occur?
Cause of denial,
Over power by pride &
Refusal for admission.
Road to fruitful life.
Admit the creator,
Merge the trinity, (Mind, soul & body),
Self-acceptance, forgiveness & release.
Be present & act.
Accept & be as created.
Manage within my reach.

Erastus Popyeny Shipuleni Poem
YOU ARE MY ANGELS
Indeed you are well come,
Indeed you are someone special,
Indeed you are a true friend in need,
Indeed you are a true friend indeed,
Indeed you are appreciated,
Hear me clearly,
I am speaking my heart out,
I am pointing out my opinions about life,
I am expressing my mind out,
Hear me loudly,
YOU ARE MY ANGELS
Sometimes we look 2 see what we want to see,
Sometimes we listen 2 what we want 2 listen too,
Sometimes we have been called, yet we do not reply,
Sometimes we ask, but we only hear what we want 2 hear,
Sometimes we seek, but we only get what we believe we will get,
Sometime we knock at doors, yet we do not hear the word saying enter,
Sometimes we are seeking for help, yet we refuse 2 recognize it when granted,
Sometimes others do knock at our heart doors, yet we do not open them up,
Sometimes we look in front of us, yet we do not see anything there,
Sometimes we have been asked, yet we do not hear anything,
Sometimes we are smiling, but, indeed we are crying,
Sometimes we are crying, but, in reality we are joyful,
Sometimes life is not what it seems,
Indeed, it is true life is unpredictable,
YOU ARE MY ANGELS
Angels are always there,
Angels sometimes are not visible,
Yet, they are always watching over us,
For all the people, u a one of the angels,
Who is send in this world 2 inspired others,
U may resist this statement, but oooh no, do not,
What other people see, is a completely different picture,
What other people hear is a completely different word,
One person heart is a different Island
As what I see, is not what u sees,
Twins do have a different identity

WHY DO YOU ALWAYS MIND MY FAULT?
What make you so special?
Why do you love seeing me falling?
Who appointed you to be my judge?
How come you are always on my case?
What should I call you, my guidance Angel or my destroyer?
Why do you allow me to make mistakes while you know I am making a mistake?
Why do you wait until I make a mistake before blaming me?
What do you know about me that I do not know myself?
Why do you enjoy when I made a mistake?
When will you come to my rescue?
Where do you fit in my life?
Can I rely on you?
Ooh noo!!!
Making a mistake is part of learning.
Learning through error and trial.
Show me the correct path.
Allow me to learn.
For better me.
