JUST WHEN I THOUGHT IT WAS OVER…
Just when I thought it was over
You unleash the storm
Seething underneath your deep skin,
With the venomous look, you send me packing
to the land of silence and calm
Just when I thought it was over
You curiously whisper into my deafened ear
Sending the message of cautionary
Yet, I thought it was concern
More of a cover-up
Once again, you sealed the vacuum
Just when I thought it was over
You stir up the raging heat at heart
It had been long forgotten
but here we are again
breaking my cloud of silence
calling me back from the land of absence
Just when I thought it was over
I’m dumb-folded by the broken cloud
dropping like the hailstorm ,my words
rumble in the silence
falling with the thud of “enough is enough”
with unshaken confidence yet feeling so inadequate.
I empty my dismay
Just when I thought it was over
Your words, falling like the rain,
cut through my tender broken heart.
Say no more..I need not hear more,
my situation is clearly defined now,
that it was never over

Diana Muthoni Poem
I feel so empty right now
my heart aches with loneliness
i don't know why i say this
i hate this feeling
but my heart got to feel
how it feels to want someone
it hurts and drives nuts
i feel so alone
or maybe i am alone
but i have got to do something about it
i choose happiness but life chooses distress
i choose friendship you choose rivalry
i choose liberty you choose silence
what do you want?
am sure i want you, not your own self
but you yourself
oh my friend....
i thought it meant everything
through the joys and the pains
but i guess it only meant your sorrows and my happiness
my sorrows needed not matter neither did your happiness
oh my friend...
this is not friendship but a partnership
where this moment is all that matters
the sorrows of yesterday and tomorrow are a thing of the past
my friend...
would i be wrong to depart from you
would i be selfish
would i be acting irrationally?
i don't know
but this moment is what matters
for its emptiness i feel
and its emptiness i hate
and i'll go out of my way to get my emptiness filled
oh my friend......
how i wish you could fill it

Diana Muthoni Poem
TODAY IS TOMORROW
You wake up thinking about tomorrow
Yet, you slept thinking about tomorrow!
Today is yesterday’s tomorrow
While tomorrow, is today’s tomorrow
Good today and gorgeous tomorrow….you
say
This ‘tomorrow’, is never today
Today is tomorrow in denial
And tomorrow, is ever tomorrow with
expectation.
Tomorrow is today, is tomorrow ,
Treat today as your tomorrow
and ‘tomorrow’ will be your today

Diana Muthoni Poem
I FEEL INDEBTED TO YOU
I feel indebted to you
Not because of your concern
and neither is it because of your show of mercy
But considering your current situation,
I now know that that I shouldn’t have pulled that trick
Not because I’ve run out of problems,
but because you’ve run shot of grace
You have always been the unmovable mountain of rescue
But now I realize that time has come,
time for you to feel that the mountain should move
2grands would light up my way today,
but I wouldn’t seek refuge from you
I can, but I shouldn’t
I appreciate your efforts, I really do
but time knows no man my friend
It will come to me someday
When I’ll cleanse my disgrace before thee.
I feel so indebted to you
Not just to help you
but to make you realize that yesterday was a stepping stone for me
and your grace needed not run shot
Because I only needed 2Grands

Diana Muthoni Poem
MY RESOUTIONS
Today, I resolve to evolve
An evolution that puts an end to my revolving around the same problems
Today, I dissolve the fragments of my past resolve
As 2016 dawns, reality downs too
That twelve months lie in the shelves intact
So, I salvage the aura of good tidings
But first, I choose to solve the looming glitches
I remember dissolving in my own tears
Like wolves on a hunt, I wailed
Beating my chest so hard and swearing so loudly
Absolving myself from all the blame of what befell me
Twelve months I wished for a silver lining
Twelve months I witched on the success of others
Twelve months I wrought nothing
Mediocrity becoming the only proof of the twelve months in 2015
But today I resolve
I resolve to get more involved in solution finding rather than problem creation
I resolve to devolve myself from the counsel of the wicked
I resolve to put a valve to the stream of mockers
I resolve to delve more on the paths of success
I resolve to shelve the unfathomed hatred and;
I resolve to evolve into that which I am to become
Today, I shove the bad and convolve with the good
I am simply EVOLVING
