Unknown Art

The picture painted is not what 
is drawn
The drawer sketches different 
shades partly understood by 
few.
They see and claim to know 
the 
complexity
Complexity that is the 
uniqueness
Like most words, the art is not 
defined in a single manner
Many have walked with it not 
minute has discovered
The mystery of the art in play.
A creative piece reflecting 
greatness visible to those with 
eagle eyes.
A lone shadow traveling great 
depth to birth dreams
Not an adjective, pleasing to 
those deserving.
Do not desire to be unveiled.
Priceless value hangs on its tag
What a masterpiece!
But not fully discovered...

Lost

Sometimes I wanna hold on and pray.
Hoping things will get better when day breaks.
Wrong I am because some things don't fix.
Unappreciative to those putting smile on my face.
It's a sad triangle going on in this phase.
Sense I oughta have when plans as such are misplaced.
Dead end trail I keep trying to chase.
Some iron never welder like in this case.
Forcing steel to straighten up gets me in no place.
Gotta let this transform to whatever caves.
I love what are not meant to be, Maze. 
And get in races I don't win, Daze.

My Orion

No matter how high I jump I 
can't reach u.
I love u so much but u 
wouldn't digest this because of 
the other little stars that try to 
have my light to at least 
shine.
They were falling in the 
blackhole.
Remember the blackhole 
absorbs all the light like 
drowning man trying to 
destroy.
In my world everything is 
about u, even the big dipper 
points to U.
u're the brightest Rigel, u light 
my life.
Whether I'm north or south 
u're visible everywhere, that's 
why my mind is programmed 
to U.
There may be 7 shiny stars but 
they can't be u, Orion.
Only u have the distinctness to 
appeal to my exciting view.
Trust me, my eyes stay on u all 
through the night no one can 
beat that.
And if staring at other stars 
makes me loose u, hunt down 
insecurity
Because u're incomparable 
with no competition and I love 
none like u.
Nonetheless, I'm ready to 
accept November to April isn't 
the whole year,
One day u'll no longer be 
there and if destiny  has it,
I'll take a place in the sky with 
u 
some day.

Poor Man's Tale

For the first time entered I into 
this place.
Bright and beautiful, 
everywhere palace.
Awe, shock, amazement took 
my face.
Caught in wishful thoughts, I 
forgot the essays
On the whys and analysis my 
family and I face.
The baggage of problems 
being head I came to erase.
Hustle closed where I was, 
trapped in dying days.
Thereupon my mind pushed 
me to find ways
In the city because of tales we 
hear when gathered at the 
fireplace.
They say here is where the 
money is.
Want strength and 
determination to cure my 
family diseases
Poverty and illiteracy. Out I 
want them race.
Hunger will kill them in 3 
months because I watch like x-
rays.
"only come back when u make 
it", in my ear my wife's voice 
sways.

Lasting Memories

It feels long ago.
When I first got to hold.
The tenderness of love so bold.
And I stored the folklore.
Should in case everything go.
That I may have memories of 
gold.
Living on for eons, never seen 
before.

She Cries

Randomly she selects table 
heads.
They all come specifically to dine.
Not caring how the foods are 
made
Neither whence they come 
from.
These things she does to have 
fulfillment.
O but they care not.
Their dirty plates roam the 
table.
To reprimand she's afraid.
The hanging light says prayers
For her sinking spirit to rise
Above the weakness to fight off 
hypocrites
Keeping the dogs from barking.

The dear motherland cries.
Her children have her 
disregarded.
Lo her dogs are there with 
visions
That must be brought forth.
How long can a dog be kept 
quiet?

Religion

Means by which we search for 
divinity.

In its name we've wrought 
confusions.
Brought wars, unjustified 
deaths and destruction.
Something we believe to be 
perfect shouldn't cause
Mankind chaos. Is it a divine 
cause?
In my religion we say, there's 
one way, things are vanity.

Means by which we segregate.

Darwinistic we be, hiding 
behind it for divisions.
With different beliefs we're still 
humans. Why adhere to 
segregation?
Some I assume have mortal 
influences without godly 
beating pause.
Religion sprout out any & 
every where, we need to pause.
In my religion we say, we fell 
from Grace, albeit.

Means by which we pride 
ourselves.

In its name we're righteous, 
judging peoples' actions.
Atheists have religion, theirs 
has no godly subscription. (lol)
Pride? No human is perfect 
even if your religion is, we're 
masters of imperfections.
Mankind unite, religion isn't 
weapon of mass destruction.
In my religion we say, we 
should love others as 
ourselves.

Fireflies

Fireflies are those who dare to 
dream.
Beautiful at night exploring the 
treasures in the dark.
Dipping their wings they utilise 
their brains.

Great power owned they 
should beam.
Every where they pass with 
light they build ark.
Spectacular are they giving off 
light breaking chains.

They attract prey as well as 
mate still don't dim.
When dream becomes reality, 
firefly produce chemical as a 
shark.
No time of day is obstacle, 
always success rains.
