The Missing Plane Mh:370

They left with happy faces
They were people from 
different places
They boarded with their cases
Packed them into their spaces

The beautiful MH370 took off
Like the ball in golf
Just like a playoff
That i will be a tragedy they 
never thought of

There last words were "alright 
good night"
Everything seemed alright
We thought it would be a 
normal flight
That we would hear of its 
arrival during the morning light

Indeed you never know
The last time you will 
se someone and again say hello
But that was a painfull way to 
go
What a hard unforgettable blow

Tears brimmed our eyes
Hoping they were just lies
Waited for updates from sunset 
to sunrise
And the World was loud,louder 
of cries

Hijacking,sabotage were the 
consideres posibbilities
The mental health of the pilots 
were the liabilities
Terrorism the act of hostility
Not knowing the reality

Our hearts felt like they were 
wrapped in a blanket of nails
Pain erupted from each side of 
the body for no details
Like a farmer who always fails
Hoping the end will be like the 
fairytales

It was still the missing plane
To find it know one knew when
Like a flower the feeling 
blossomed of pain
We just hoped to see the loved 
ones again

Our hope was then flushed
By the heartbreaking news with 
pain we felt stuffed
When we heard some even 
collapsed
That in the indian ocean it 
crushed

BY ME. :)

What Captured a White Mans Heart In Africa

Miles that I have gone,
The things that I have known,
Some things that their beauty can be seen even in the 
dawn,
Mostly on earth plants that have been sawn.

Flowers and their beauty,
To brighten is their duty,
Their leaves smoothly,
Some of them even fruity.

Always I had seen roses in white or red,
Amazingly they are made,
Am always an admirer as they grow till they fade,
On rank they are on the highest grade.

Traveling around the World is my ace,
To the warm heart of Africa I caried my case,
With me I traveled with Gods grace,
To the golden sands of Malawi what a beautiful place.

But on this journey I had a pose,
For a second my mind froze,
As I came close,
I realized I had seen a black rose.

Her hair so thick and black,
Its the black beauty that can be seen even in the dark,
She sparkled I knew it was good luck,
I wanted to go on but something held me back.

I know why,
My luck is what I had to try,
Her eyes are so bright like a firefly,
She is so thrillingly amazing like a butterfly.

The beauty of a Malawian flower,
Love has found me at the unexpected hour,
With her beauty power,
Love on her I will shower.

Zanzibar

The sun breaks into the morning sky,
Sparkling the mirrored waters nearby,
The beautiful birds flock n fly,
As the palm trees sway in the warm breeze closeby.

The semi automous tropical island,
With its beautiful powdery white sand,
Its exotic fruit that grows on its land,
Land of warrious Massai with a wooden spear in his hand.

The vibrant and enchanting stone town,
That leads to darajani as you go down,
The Old fort(Ngome Kongwe) uptown.
The history of the spicy island still wears the crown.

The amazing kikengwa cave,
The island that has the grave,
Old slave market; the story out of 50 men who were brave,
The survivor would be sold as a slave.

The prison island and its great tortoise,
That move with enormous poise,
crystal clear indian Ocean waters that are turquoise,
And the amazing ocean wave noise.

Its aqua waters that glistene in the afternoon sun,
That live beautifull sea shells in their run,
The coconut trees that line up to stun,
Not forgeting the house of wonders as one.

The famous Forodhani park,
That continues to spark,
Glowing during the dark,
With its delicious sea food;coloured shark!

With a blissful day taken
The heart taking sunset at seven, 
And the stretch of your imagination forsaken,
Indeed zanzibar is the view of shot heaven!

Dear Ex

Remember how we talked for hours
Send each other flowers
Write to each other i love you in
different colors

Its funny how things change
That what now were all looking for is
revenge
Instead of happines,isnt it strange?

Funny how i couldnt sleep
Without seeing my phone beep
And when am mad and i dont pick
up you would weep

Indeed nothing is forever
But this was something we never
Expected to end,love ddnt do us any
favor

Wait,was it real love or infatuation?
Because am confused with the
situation
There were no any feelings attached
to our last conversation

Nothing personal am just saying
Or you can just take it like am just
playing
And dont think its a reconciliation
move am not staying

How we said i love you
Was that really true?
Am just asking as you would ask me
too

Now we have all moved on
I hope this will sound in a good
tone
That am already gone

Dont get this in a rude way
Am just tryng to say
I can live without you today

So it was a lie
Look my ex we did not die
After we told each other good bye

See life is not hard its simple
You should mingle
I hope your not single

O and say hi to your friend
Who called me forever inlaw while
they knew it would end
Tell them again to never pretend

Love Justice-To My Dusk and Dawn

LOVE JUSTICE (To my dusk and dawn)

You have murdered me with perfection,
It is a shame to raise an objection,
No need to question,
You are guilty under this hearts section.


My feelings depose in this piece,
Feelings that do not cease,
From the moment you were arrested by my mind's police,
They have gone through a manifestly excessive increase.


It is a prima facie case,
Can be read all over this face,
Lines you have to embrace,
As we have found ourselves in this place.


It is a felony,
That has infected my hearts melody,
A virus with no remedy,
It is love justice not a comedy.


With no contradiction,
Nor an opposition,
Guilty you are, my dusk and dawn, my crucifixion,
And my soul confirms this conviction.

Give Me a Chance

Its been years your answer is 
still
no
He mistreats you but u cant let 
him
go
He treats you like a doll
And plays you like a ball

I asked for a chance
Just after the dance
Which only happened once
I knew you are the one at first
glance

Your beauty is beyond measure
Its something every man has to
treasure
For it is a pleasure
Wish you could come visit me at
your leisure

Evertime i always think
How you make my heart skip a 
beat when you blink
And it starts to beat faster 
when you wink
If i was in the mid of the ocean 
i
would sink

I see you once in a while
But i know thhe way you smile
And everything about your life 
style
Your like a lily of the nile

That you love puppies he 
doesnt
care
Getting you flowers he doesnt 
dare
And all that am aware
Let me in an you will have the 
best love affair
I last met him at the gym
How i wish i could punch him
Wish i could take you for a swim
And together be the best team

Why be with someone who 
doesnt
make you happy
Its sad not even funny
Not even has he ever bought 
you
candy
Always busy for you from 
monday to sunday

Give me your hand and i will 
give
you the best
Or even take me for a test
You can go round the world,but 
my chest
Is where your going to rest

Lost In the Eyes of a Goddess

A look in the eyes that glisten,
Sparkling in my soul that is driven,
By the enchanting feature that has risen,
Then I close my eyes and listen.....

Sshhh.. listen to her tender voice,
Impressed by her poise,
A guarantee of perpetuity joys,
Feel the touch of the goddess of my choice....

Wheeww...the warmth of her palms,
That reach with a magnificent stretch of her arms,
Arrive with loving charms,
My heart alarms....

Dub..dub..dub..the sound of my heartbeat,
Sending signals from my head to my feet,
With a passion I feel the heat,
I am complete...

When am lost in her eyes,
Where everything rise,
Before the skies,
That is where my happiness lies...

In the eyes of a goddess,
To her palms as the address,
Where my heart gains access,
To love that is Endless.

A Prick of a Rose

In our love darkness fell,
Thunder and lightening shook our shell,
Fire blazing like in hell,
Never knew it was Farewell.

Sad as this may sound,
Picking myself from the ground,
In my search for you I found,
You were not around.

I then found you to give you the aid you were needing,
Like a mothers love  to a baby she is feeding,
Realized it was my heart that was bleeding,
When you refused to help I thought you were kidding.

Watching you go was the hardest part,
Than the bleeding of the heart,
And the truth that,
Our  world was tearing apart.

Like I have been cursed,
Instead of being nursed,
I was replaced,
And lonliness I embraced.

A fool I was not to realize all along,
That what we built was not so strong,
I thought together that's where we belong,
I was blinded I was wrong. 

In my life dot not come again,
As you caused so much pain,
I hope I want be that insane,
Come sun com rain.

A Single Rose Is All I Have

I cant take you to france,
To the famous paris bt I can give you the romance,
But if I had the money and the chance,
I would give you all at once.

Intimacy is not all about physical,
I might sound a bit political,
As I justify my status which is critical,
In a poem that is lyrical.

The money yes I dont have,
But am rich in love,
Let my witness be the stars above,
In the world of love,
you will fly wherever like a dove.

You consumed my heart,
In me your like a natural part,
You have locked me inside your heart that i can never 
depart,
And the sky is drawing us into a beautiful art.

I dont have it all,
But I can see deeply in that beautiful soul,
That its rays make me lose control,
Glowing in bosom like a coal.

Though deeply inside I know,
Your worth you deserve more,
Am thankful that were still standing tall,
So strong like china's great wall.

There is no califonia king bed,
My chest is the warmer pillow for your head,
As we believe the colour of love is red,
We also believe there is a better us ahead.

Each step we take there is a flame that glows,
For being so close,
Your filled with gratitude and our love continuously grows,
But all give you is my heart a single rose.

Doubt At the Worste Possiblemoment

A step after another
Walkin in with my father
I have made people to gather
Third, forth step and i take 
another

Am nervours and abit shaking
But there caught with the smile
which i know am faking
And the beautiful steps am 
taking
Its my heart that is breaking

Am i ready for this?
Am i walking into bliss?
Are my insticts right about 
what i
feel it is
I have to know before that final 
kiss

All the attention is on me
Happy faces are all i see
Silently counting to three
To calm dowm,i feel like i need 
to
pea

Am getting there in my white 
veil
And the perfectly fit gown with 
a
sized tail
Telling myself all will be well
If i ignore my feelings will i not 
fail

Am getting close
To the one i chose
On my list out of all those
And father lets my hand loose i
watch him as he goes

Am i really sure?
Is his love realy pure?
Or was it jst an artificial lure
Or should i ignore my instincts 
and
endure

Am about to be his wife
Am afraid its for life
In my mind,this is all causing 
strife
I do or no to the next chapter 
of my
life
