Prisoner

Prisoner
                                               Sharon Maria Moemise
I long for the freedom of the landscape
Where I can allow myself to escape
When the walls are closing in on me
And Hell seems the right place to be.

I reach out to touch the untouchable
I dream of reaching the impossible
I count the sand grains through the hour-glass
Knowing my fate will soon come to pass.

Helpless, hands tied behind my back
No amount of fighting will allow the chains to slack
I beg for reprieve, for a just one chance of freedom
For on last attempt to  seek God's wisdom

I open the gates of the past to catch up
Allowing old pain, hurt and regrets to fill my cup
Holding on to memories of days gone by
While I beseech my soul in vain, to not cry

My mind is strong though my willpower weak
I lived a sunny dream with a future so bleak
I'm trapped in a cell with bars of a strange kind
I'm locked up for life, a prisoner of my own mind.

Our Passion

Our passion
                     By Sharon Maria Moemise


Thoughts of you marks the existence of my passion
Propelling me into a deep yearning
to be completely possessed by your maleness
Burrowing into my being, making me utterly yours

The passion with which your gaze covers all of me,
Takes my breath away, making my yearning endless
Your heat envelops my senses
Your voice whispering endearments in my ear
Your kisses... Fueling the fires of your passion.

My cries reverberating throughout civilization
I moan to the throbbing of out hearts together
My sighs in rhythm with the urgent tempo of our bodies
And as one, we glide to our earth shattering finale.

Thank You

Thank You...
                                                                Sharon Moemise
For the sun that burns unhealthily
For the wind that blows continuously 
A baby's cry that knows no end
A moment of silence that's heaven sent.

For waking up from under a newspaper
Rain pelting on a cardboard shelter
The stench of city air pollution
Music banging, chains rattling, much confusion

A drunk staggering across the street
An old man so tired, dragging his feet
For a flea infested wall of homeliness
Lives lived day to day, in darkness

Squalid water dripping from a leaky tap
A house pet under a tree for a  quick nap
For all kind of pain that cut like a knife
Thank You Lord...for giving us life

Eye In the Sky

Eye in the sky
                                   Sharon Maria Moemise

Witness to the days of slavery and segregation
To where nations gathered, begging to be heard
Seeing the tears from our planet's  lamentation
For wrongs that won't be righted on dear Mother Earth

Bloated babies, parents bemoaning their demise
Fat cats watching, rolling in ill-begotten wealth
Mothers weeping,  young girls' deflowered, despised
By monsters who sow the seeds of disease and death

Gun- toting tots trained to maim and murder their own
Starvation and death feeling like the only way out
of a world owned by thugs where devil seed is sown 
While feasting on drugs, murder and mayhem 

While I look around at the destruction of Gods creations
Plundering and damage caused by human invention
I yearn for a moment's indulgence of heaven's purity 
Without being burdened by thoughts of life's insecurities 

Eye in the sky looking but hardly seeing the sufferings
of babies born in the streets, mothers begging for a place
To lay their heads and to ease their children's crying
shouting in agony, weeping in mourning for the human race

Mystery

Mystery               
                            Sharon Maria Moemise

I got ravished by a mystery 
And put my life in jeopardy
He never revealed his identity
Now I'm not sure of my destiny

He got me screaming for my mother
I've never had that from another
Intense eyes, mouth set, passionate lover
As he tossed my senses from me over and over

His physique belied his masculinity 
Yet it sings praise to his agility
He appeared from his own reality
Stern faced, nameless, no history

I got ravished by a mystery
And put my life in jeopardy
With a colorful, fruit flavored johnny
To shy from disease and an unwanted baby.

He got me from every which way and angle
Getting my hair, and sheets in a tangle
His pushes and thrusts drove me into a jumble 
Made me sigh, "oh God...",like I was touched by an angel

Feeling You

Feeling you  
                         Maria Sharon Moemise

Your feminine scent...
sheer intoxication
Tresses  of your dreadlocks 
caressing my every being.
The shape of your lips
yearning to be kissed
I rise to the sweet sound
of your lusty moans
I'm trapped within 
a thick whirl of desire.

You give of yourself
with reckless abandon
Ever yielding, wanting...
Imprisoning me within your crevice
Enslaving my being 
to your lustful demands
Moulding my senses
Within the contours of you
Leaving me breathless, 
Thirsting for many more cups
Of your sensuous delight

No

No                                                                       By Sharon Maria Moemise

Cast in concrete, memories of when
I became a woman, forced by men
All I feared became a reality just as
the traces of childhood ran past

Shadows, whafting a stale sweat smell
Grabbing at me just as I fell
No one heard me shouting, screaming
No! They pushed, breathing, heaving

A child ran past, looking, seeing
A girl frightened,  stripped of her being
No-one listened,  five beasts saw
As I crawled away, shamed, beaten raw

No! A woman's cry, a girl's plea...
A sigh,  a moan... A spirit set free
The decision to bear your shame
Tainted woman, that's your name 

Pain, hurt and mostly the shame 
Knowing, not telling, accepting blame
A childhood robbed, cruelly stolen
A web of vengeance, hate, slowly woven.

As I Lay

As I lay
                                                                          By Maria Sharon Moemise

The signs of time edged on my face
the rivers of sorrows leaving my being
As I lay in state, awaiting oblivion
the stars above to erase my suffering

Prayers ringing for my soul to rest
Tears dripping, memories flowing
A black cloud turning to white light,
beckoning, whispering my name 
I'm ready, I relent and loose the fight

Silence... No it's Angel's song
I float like a dry leave on a cloud,
arms stretched, awaiting acceptance
I'm on my final journey to deliverance 

A tribute to one who fought and lost
My heart is still, my soul set free
As I lay in Glory, I hear you cry
I leave you with a love that will never die.

Time

Time...
                    Sharon Maria Moemise

The sign of time is in the heart of the clock
That ticks off the seconds to our destiny
The sign of our destiny is the self inflicted mark
That scars the very being of our identity.
Time...

Life  is lived by the code of our own makings
Emotion switched to frivolous uncertainty
The when and the how of carving our lives path
Lies within the reckless abandonment of reality
Time...

Temporal length of an entity's existence...
As the moments happen,  as the clocks tick
Time is as we speak... As we define essence
As we make memories, as we defy irresistible logic 
Time...

Time is of the essence, we hear it said
Time is timeless...surpassing life's light
From childhood to adulthood, a journey endless
Time's an eternal climb to unscalable heights
Time...

I Am

I am
                                                              Sharon Maria Moemise

A sample of nature's wonder
Blemished by earth's anger
Pure of heart, without regrets
For that what I seek, I shall beget.

I'm a child, spawn of earthly nature,
Heavenly designed, God's creature
No care for scars, lines...life's directions
In His image He made us... no imperfections

Possibilities, chance or abilities 
Are some of  our time's  realities
holding onto dreams freely begotten
Pain, hurt, past fears forever be forgotten

I am who I was made to be
Daughter, mother, sister and me
Upon whom God bestowed many bessings
Of  love, peace, and life's lessons 

I am, in my eyes, queen of my humble throne
mistress of my  mere existence, ever alone
I am, I declare, no paragon of virtue
But I am all woman, and that is true.
