Meet me at the half way!!!

How do i make you understand that i am dead tired
that i have tried all i can and have known all my life
i wish you understand that i cant go any further than this
Please I am begging you, try and be reasonable in my plight
and do all you can to meet me at the half way path of life
i would have loved to be there but as you know i am fainting
for my strength is weak, am nothing but just a mere Human
look into my lonely patched and pitiful soul; I need help!
i see that my journey is long, dangerous and senseless to me
that's why i beg you, that in all you think of me
try and lessen my burden and make my yoke easier
for i have looked up my path and all i see is a lost cause
there is no sign of living save I, in this deserted land
i am told that thou art Merciful,Gracious and ever loving Father
now i need all that thou can ever offer unto my half dead soul
for my body is weak and my Spirit tiring for there is no end in Sight

NIGERIA: The Giant of Africa !!!!!

Who said that Africa has no giant
that is has no one to fight on its behalf
Yeah! they lied, for there is surely a giant
but it has been sleeping for a long time
thereby making people forget that it exist
it has slept peacefully and quietly
now its rising up like the strong beast
that rules over the land of the great
where only the strong tread with might
and the weaklings tremble and fear

What is a Day to behold!

When the Morning shines with the Sun going higher
so shall the night fall with the Moon lifted high
what shall we say of today, that it came by?
or that it went by as we would not have believed
A natural day would begin with the known expected
and also it should come to an end the way we know
but when the day starts in the way we have known
and ends in the way that we would not have dreamed off
how do we call such a day; 'A very good one'? yet
lets say that the day starts with the unexpected
and the unknown hovers over us until sunset
shall we call it 'a good day' or 'a very bad day'
I ask all these for i understand not what a day is
i am told that there is something called 'just a day'
and another known as "the Perfect day" which i know not
perplexed has the thought of day left me standing
and now i wonder how much can i fully understand
that today maybe the very last, I shall know off
or it might be the day when all things change
for which; we are not here permitted to talk on
but we shall leave it to the good or the bad
the beautiful or ugly, His highness or His servant
leaving that very much aside by the river stream
How shall one help me classify what my day is
and into which of all the groups known to men
shall i tell anyone who ask me that faithful question
How is or was your day? i need help right now
for i know not what to answer, this Young child
Sweetheart, Lover, Daddy, Mummy, Cousins and friends

What ?

I am not trying to make any difference now
but i know that i have made so many mistakes
i do understand if you say that its over
for i know that i should not have fallen for you
i have looked all through my tiny little life
and i cant find any hope of living without you
i have tried in all the ways i have known
Yet i feel that, i am not qualified to lead
I have caused you too much troubles and pains
if you say right now, that i should leave
i can only stand still, in your presence and wait
till you; yourself come and throw me outside
cos my feet cant bring itself to move an inch
I would die here if it is the price i have to pay

All i know in this miserable life, i learn't from you
now that you want to throw me out where do i go?
for i have not known any other person than you
but i do solely understand if i have let you down
in my eyes and hands are nothing but troubles
yet look into my heart and lonely dejected soul
that all i have done are nothing but pure innocence

How do you expect me to move on with my life
when i look back and you are not there with me
i cant tell you that i know all you want from me
but please let me find favour and grace in you
for I have sinned gravely against you and I
you should understand that i cant move on
for I would go down with you to the very end
because i still love you with all i have got
there is no way i can ever retire from you love
If you say that now there are rules, i would try to keep

Just a feeling !!!!

My head hurts and i hope that it might get better but as the minutes go by, the pain keeps on getting stronger. I try to look for a solution but I can’t find any. I hope i get a solution to my pain soon or else ..... you never know what might happen next.
Things are bad enough in my life and sometimes i feel that i am living just because i have a life to live and not because i have any real reason to. There are days when i wake up and ask myself like the late Tupac Shakur in the track called changes, if I should not just blast myself and put an end to my existence that i may feel the pains and tears of life no more

What keeps me from taking my own life, is that i believe; that one day shall come when i shall look back and say “my darkest nights are over and now the morning is come” but right now my tears are running uncontrollably and there is no one to give i a handkerchief to clean down my tear soiled face.

AFRICA: The Black and Blessed !!!!

The giant continent of the so called blessed black Race
the continent that has been faced with a life of sorrow
oh my people! where have our leaders taken us to
that now we can not see the way forward anymore
and the youths of today do not understand the future they have
Oh! tears run down my stained dry pale face
i raise my eyes to see the stars but i see nothing
what crime have we committed to be painted this bad
when i look at my people, i see pain and long suffering
hmmm, how shall i escape this damination of death
i anint scared of Death but i dont want to look it in the face
it stares at my people, holding them to ransom
who shall deliver, who shall deliver, who shall save
the Children of the Innocent Black and Blessed Race
the Fathers of the Heavens and the Spirits of the Soil
I thy humble servant call upon thee now; Arise and Fight
for your children have lot their way and cannot see the path
they have refused to learn and have come to a Place of stagnation

Change !!!

How much changes do we need to get there
it is said that changes is inevitable
but how can we make the people change

Everyday when i wake up, i ask myself
if today is the day that we are blessed
for i am really tired of seeing no change

There are things i know that wont change
but i hope on what i think is lost hope
because we commit crimes needing change

He said 'Lets change the way we live
the way we treat each other' you feel me
that we have to make a change to survive

I have looked all around, i see nothing beautiful
every where my eyes rest upon, is sorrow and pain
yet i dream for a wonderful change in today life

He said, that's just the way it is
and that things can never be the same
i wish i knew what can be called 'same'

I am tired of the life that i am living now
but i have no courage to take my own life
i look on the streets; its cheating and killing

I have tried to be real from the fast lane
in the slow lane there is nothing in there for me
for my path has been made already in struggle

Now i am a man and i look back at the kids
and i see the whole same thing, just like mine
that's the way it is, nothing wants to change

Who is going to start, this change that we need
now i am crying, for everyone is talking change
yet no one wants the first step towards change

What He has given !!!!

He has given me life even though i don't deserve it
he gave me Joy and an everlasting peace of heart
the waters compass me about over and flowing
yet I stand without fear, knowing his grace is always there
i live life in the fullest possible way, unknown to man
for the Gods have called me to dine at their table
even though my enemies lurk around me openly
waiting patiently to devour my precious gentle soul
they shall wait in vain, for he that is greater than them
He set me in a bottle that is unbreakable
and has planted my feet upon the Rock of all times
and has locked my heart inside the veins of his own Blood
for i know that my Redeemer the great King of all Heavens
is my Father, the Holy one is my rider of my Chariot
He has placed me upon the Hills at the very top of Life itself
I rejoice everyday for good things i have received freely


2nd Sept. 09.

A little something....

can anyone out there feel my pain?
can you come up to my ultimate rescue
and free I from this bond of sorrow
People of this great and mighty Earth
why has thou left me to rot out here
i am in need of being loosed forever

I was told that Freedom is in the Mind
and the mind can make a Heaven in Hell
and set the whole body on its new path
I have in all my resources tried freeing myself
but the stronger i try the helpless i become
in invading the Spirit of my gentle mind

see the stress i am being put under
and the vision of been blessed are gone
fading away as the dew to the morning sun
as melting wax before the flamming fire
my Heart is melting and my rivers run dry
for hope and Life are fading before my eyes

As i stand upon the bank of the Waters
a Chariot of horse driven riders behind
I have come to the point of a choice
back and to be a slave for enternity
or take a deadly and painful death
among the unknown elements in the waters

My time is come for my days are numbered
i shall see the fall of my pitiful soul
for the undertaker, knocks on my lonely door
i will pass away as one that never came by
and my name shall never be heard by anyone
here i go now, with none to look upon for rescue

I see the Angels coming down unto me
singing songs meant only for Immortals like them
how beautiful it sounds, lovely to my soul
Worthy they cry, who is worthy of this place
let Him step forward unto the path of the gods
that his soul may find Eternal Peace

I heard my name resound in a zillion places
art thou worthy of this great calling?
meekly i heard myself say "yes i think i am"
bearly audible, even unto my own very ears
art thou meek and sober in thy lonely heart?
do the waters of purity reside in your soul?

I look up at him who speaks to my heart
and my knuckles loosed its precious balance
for he who speaks sees beyond my very own eyes
that every cell of my weak and fearful soul melts
like gold tried in great flames, so He said to I
"I would purify every atom of your miserable life"

I have been high and low at the same time in Life
but never have my ears heard these words spoken
bravely, i stare into the eyes of He that speaks
and courage leaps from the inner structure of me
i open my mouth and the words all start pouring out
Today i am here as the Weak but a Warrior shall I leave

Thou hast well spoken young man, take a step forward
and let the great trials of thy lonely soul begin
the ways of the righteous man have been guided
from the begining of creation even until now
i look upon the eyes of the multitude around me
the Step of Faith I say to myself, shall lead me home

one of the days when i was down

WHAT IS A DATE?

I have on many occasions heard that for men
a date is candle light dinner and condoms
yet for women its a time to feel been loved
if i might ask who seems right and why?

The Stars fill out the night sky in its wonderful glory
and the lights brighten the darkness of the cool night
so are the wine bottles been emptied on the table
and the candle lights dimmer they grow slowly

The meal is over and its time to say goodbye
and thanks for such a wonderful evening
i hope i would see you soon again for another
maybe for a game, movie, concert or a club?

Yet we are tempted by greed or lust of her sexy body
and we offer to see her off to her home and to her bed
for a cup of coffee, watch a movie or more talk she invites
which ever the case maybe sex is absolute in the agenda

its just a matter of time and who makes the first move
and when its considered the right time and right moment
that the other party may receive it; rejecting not
that the flame may glitter and glow leading somewhere

Yet i have come to understand that on both sides
sex is the ultimate question on the minds of both souls

PROMISE LAND

A wise one once told me that if i am looking for the Promise Land
then i should start thinking beyong the walls of my quiet life
I asked how would i know if i had the courage to lead the lost
I who the Almighty can trust to faithfully lead the people of God

We are going to the Promise Land so have my African leaders said
from the 1960's and 70's, i have been told that we shall be there
but everytime i thought that we were in the right direction
i realised that we are further going into the path of destruction

The Peace that resides in me, have made me understand that
I can never be free from the shackles that our leaders have kept us
until i can prove within my own fearful soul that i am courageous
then i can take our people and show them the way to Zion.

In ignorance i asked, who shall help me get the people across?
and how would I know when my People are ready to move
he said that i should let my soul be guided by the Spirits
that rules over all the forces of the Earth and the Heavens

How i wish that i can understand just a fraction of all, he said
for now i am stuck here and i cannot see the way forward
the path that opens before me are in many ways unknown
it seems that i too have lost my way like those before I

There is no crime for one to loose his path in his journey
but its a mistake to remain on the lost path when you know
I have looked up to the Spirits of life to set me back on track
and asked the Holy One to show me the way to lead My People

Africa

My Africa, the Pride of our Father's past and our Children unborn
i wish they can see the kind of disharmony we are living in now
and tell us if this is the African Continent that they dreamed off
the continent that is blessed beyond its own capacity of Riches
yet live in the poorest conditions of this mighty and global world
i have refused to understand to the negativity of my positivity
In the eyes of the Almighty, it is said that all Men are Equal
my foreign Brothers claim 'it is a fundamental attribution error'
I have seen the untold and the unholy and both reside in my Africa

who can save my people from the pains and troubles they go through
and bless their soul from the unwritten oppression that befall them
Africa who can you call as thy own Son on the foreign Land
