Evgeni Amukwaya Poem
How long will I have to call out to an open sky.
Where nothing but stars and constellations pass me by.
My restless heart screaming out for a lonely companion.
Where a tormented wanderer asks nothing more than attention.
Like a wolf I howl to distant voices.
Hoping I'll be heard,hoping someone will finally help me over come this feeling of solitude.
Like the stars I comfort in the moonlight.
As she cradles my shattered heart during the lonely nights.
The cold winds would fill the empty void in my heart.
And heal my heart from all it's battle scars.
AS she gives me hope to call out to open skies.
She helps me overcome my feeling of loneliness.
As her cold kiss touches my lips.
I finally fall asleep...

Evgeni Amukwaya Poem
She lay shivering in her freezing hell.
As people walked by they ignored her presence like she never existed.
With tears in her eyes she questioned her own existence.
Would her life be of any significance?
When solitude is the only being who bares witness to her sadness.
Her world slowly crumbled.
For no one picked her up as she fell and stumbled.
She could only find comfort in the pins and needles that pierced her skin.
But not even they could heal the wounds she felt within.
Raindrops would fall from the skies.
Hiding the tears in her eyes.
As her body slowly fades away.
Her soul finally vanished.

Evgeni Amukwaya Poem
I bring forth my confession tonight.
Ashamed to call myself human due to actions of others.
As we butcher our brothers and sister due to politics and corrupt actions.
Blinded by ignorance we have forgot why we have been place in the first place.
Destroying the live of millions and millions of families.
Bring upon unnecessary enemies and wars.
Leaving households with orphans and widows.
As their loved ones are taken by death and the shadows.
For how long will we destroy one another.
As we standby killing our foreign sisters and brothers.
Brainwashed by reality shows and explicit music videos.
We are unaware of the suffering and crippled war heroes.
What happen to the wisdom,justice and love that God has given us.
Have we swept it away like spec of dirt and dust.
Forgetting the wars our elders have in the past.
Have we forgotten why we're here.
Why got has given us this task.
Should we look into the past.
And find a solution to the future.
when will we finally face reality?
