Letter To My Skin

I was born with you
You have travelled this road of life
Right here with me
You stood by as I would bruise you 
I would leave you marked
Without a care in the world
I just did not realise this
That you hurt too
That you are important too
And most of all
You are not a part of me 
It is I
I am a part of you
I walked around with you
Weathered storms
The heat, all four seasons
You have always been close to me
Close as breathing
I just realised late
That you are important too
And most of all
You are not a part of me
It is I
I am a part of you
No one has been as close to me as you all
People would touch you
Perceiving they were touching me
If it were not for you
I would surely die
For you cover my being
You enclose me
You envelope me
I never realised I took you for granted
Thank you for caring
Thank you for holding all of me together
And most of all
Thank you for being a part of me
Thank you for letting me
Be a part of you
And if ever I forget you again
Make it known
May I look at you and see
That you are important too
And most of all
You are not a part of me
It is i
I am a part of you
I will never be without you
In life we are always together
And in death, we will be together
A part of each other
Thank you for carrying me through the years
Sincerely, Me

My Name

My Name is O.M.P.H.I.LE; I own it as a badge, it is my definition and who I am.

O pen-minded
I open my mind up not to judge, to live and let live. As we all on a different journey, and the Rightful Judge is The Father so who am i? But measly man on whom He Looks upon, I am not here to be a divider of people but rather to bring them To the Lord if they may come.

M ad
I am that craziness wrapped up in pure African skin, complicated in a bubbly personality to make me. Mad about Christ, Mad on people, Mad on Life. Totally Mad. My best quality yet and I embrace it with the same way a new born embraces Life.

P oet
Amateur poet striving for the Best, on the way to the top, Contemporary baby! In a way that gives my readers goosebumps, with standing hairs upon their neck wondering if I am of this Earth. No, I am not a bragger I am just merely writing what people have expressed to me.

H umble
This is a quality best left to be judged by others, but as a famous quote goes sometimes you need to give yourself a pat on the back. Humility a quality that is required of all to showcase the human factor in one. I embrace you.

I ndividual
Yes baby! You heard me right I am an individual in my own right, clasping on to my originality with both hands (tsoo-pedi). I love who I am, and my individuality is not a crutch, but a formation of the being that defines me, beauty, brains, flaws, sugar and spice baby. No one else like me walks this Earth. 

L ove
The Lovistaér! Kgm kgm… I love to love and be loved, the love queen. Love is at the core of every human, how can we exist without i? It nailed My Saviour to the tree. The Four letter word with immense impact when uttered, it can not be taken back, powerful words! Change my world today with them words! Can you feel me???

E ntertainer
A self-defined ‘Born Entertainer’, how I Love to make people laugh, smile and be happy. I wanna be a ray of sunshine in your dark day, so let me bring you to the radiance of gladness in this blissful abyss I Invite you too, can you feel my spin?
