Fading....

FADING
When he composed that song,
He thought of her for so long,
She had been his strength,
Her face lit in her truth.
She was his first,
She was worth all his trust.

Then she became his everything,
Promising a love everlasting,
There was no contention nor doubt,
It was all happiness in his heart,
He called every other time,
Even though the talk was just the same.

They didn’t consider fights for solutions.
A simple kiss would wipe their problems,
They made serious promises,
They never anticipated heartaches,
He did not subject her to tears,
She did not subject him to any worries.

But everything has an end,
A cloth will someday need to be mend,
She didn’t understand her man,
He failed to understand his woman,
The passion became war,
The ecstasy turned sour.

They had made a terrible mistake,
They fought against another mistake,
The confusion took over,
The toll was hard to recover,
The gap grew wider and wider,
Romance had no reminder.

Their fruit was in danger,
He could not be the provider,
He was burdened over the shoulder,
Their tone was never again tender,
Time would finally determine,

Whether they were going to have a second chance.

Poetry: SLAVES

Slaves It is because you don’t see me, You don’t value me, I try to see, But your wrath blinds me, I cry for help from up above, But your supremacy and authority chain me, My children are hungry and almost to die, But you have taken away my wife, You have made their nurse a sex slave, I’m around just waiting for the next stage, The separation of my children when my smile shall fade. You have neither compassion nor a heart, You disregard I have blood that runs my heart, Yet you call me an ape from the forest, But I honestly think you are shoddier than that, You are neither a monster nor a heartless beast, I have tried to understand your impact on my fate, My wife is aghast by the portion of life, My children bewildered throughout the murky and the night, Their lives shall shrivel once I get into this boat, I will never lay my eyes on my family, I will have to toil and get trodden dearly, I just hope that my gods are watching carefully,...

Poetry: Police Torture

VICTIMS OF TORTURE!!! Why do policemen beat so indiscriminately and unprofessionally? Oh, defending themselves from peace loving unarmed civilians? Does it have to be in a manner of such terrible brutality? Rigging of elections, killing of civilians, beating demonstrators, suppressing of media, threats and extra judicial assassinations! Who will protect the innocent lot? Does it feel powerful to act in disregard of morality and law, Men, women and children always on the run, Feeling to the law some are above and some below, Who will come to the rescue of the ordinary Kenyan? How can a police loot in disguised name of searching? Beat, injure kill and go scot-free? Who will see the plight of children still crying? Restoring order-using firearms is one allegation they will never admit to see. Women and elderly are beaten live on camera, No wonder police recruitment is based on height, Colonization cases which are so gone an era! Behaving to satisfy your sa...

Poetry: Dear Friend....

Dear Friend, I've been startled by your generous action, Puzzled by your dedicated passion, Who ever thought that a real stranger, Could be the best friend ever? Who ever thought the most kind  deed, Would ever be of the sweetest kind? For a friend being awake? Isn't that priceless than risk? Or is there a better definition? Or is destiny close to destination? How on earth could one be ever forgotten? When favor and consideration have been given? The short journey has been lengthened by tension, Made lovely by hope and anticipation, There have been heartaches, Anxiety and roaming abandonments, But new friendship has conquered, A foundation of faith and trust have been established. In spite of some few lies at the start, And in spite of some abandonment at some point, I have credited you to be a good person, I will forever be indebted to you for your gifted action. I apologize for any wrong done, But I thank God your heart is not hard as st...
