Life and Literature

Dear heavenly father, I come to you completely with full acknowledgment that I am a sinner. I believe am a child if God, your child,but am not sure. Well... Because I continue to sin.  Though the guilt after kills me and I feel ashamed all the time. Father, I know of you. I want to be good, cos your word teaches us that. But for the most part, I think am good but for this one sin. Then again I know that there is nothing like one sin. Father, I am ashamed, ashamed now to ask for forgiveness. That prodigal son, most times he's on my mind. But even he repented. Me?! .. Am still repenting. Am afraid, sometimes even sure you won't take me back Sometimes I think you will What is the verdict?? Tell me please I shed tears only you and my pillow know. I try to not sin too much, That one koraa, Do I know which one is too less ? Paapa, Right now dier, Tears and wailing don't even move myself any longer Well... They have their moments Still I really want to c

Special is the feeling i feel only with you Losing myself in you Me is lost Not knowing where to be found Wait for me Those one way hugs If ever I am not enough tell me Trust is what I thought we had together Our bodies where in sync as much as our thoughts collided Being with you had no beginning nor end Love was defied at all cost Smiles that were so rare Expressing the hidden truth This was the love I craved The love we once had The love that kept getting lost This was the one that got away

One thing I remembered is the sound of laughter and loud chatter The house  was full, bumping into people at every turn Shaking hands and telling stories As time went on the people reduced and so did the noise This beauty of this though, is I can close my eyes any day and time and still see their faces. I don't remember all the conversations, but their faces? I do. The bleeps of goats before they are slaughtered, clinks of glass, the gossips and my favorite the fights    Because That Was Tradition The situation in which these experiences occurred differed I close my eyes and reply that song, remembering that smell, seeing the joy The one that makes u feel welcomed, accepted no matter what See the colours of kente and polished shoes and know You are home Welcome Home I Bet You Missed It

Special is the feeling i feel only with you Smiles that were so rare Those one way hugs Expressing a hidden truth Losing myself in you Not knowing where to be found Wait for me This was the love I craved The love we once had The love that kept getting lost This was the one that got away Trust is what I thought we had together Only if our bodies where in sync as much as our thoughts collided Being with you had no beginning nor end Loving each other everyday like we just met Actions cut deeper not knowing where who was wrong Love demands forgiveness Allowing our mistakes guide us, Living in complete harmony, each day without fear of offence That's true love If ever I am not enough tell me Love is defined at all cost  I need you It makes perfect sense Am supposed to meet you Because everything does happen for a reason

U ask everyday if I loved you, U ask if I have stopped loving you Emotions cannot be substituted for words Never do you say I love u What if 1+1=3 What if we could just, Make it alright with a kiss This though is not a movie The flash backs of how you Tell me everyday of your love Being vulnerable, the least chance Today, the question is Do you still love me 1+1=2 That's makes it all perfect Missing the wish Knowing that by the day's end, The consoling awaits If 1+1 is 1 Won't that be perfect Syncing in every aspect Being there without Having to ask Nothing is perfect, right ? Beauty of this though 1+1 = Who ever is looking in
