Is it here

Image
Is it here or it is there Will you leave or will you stay It is not about what I say Just how and where you'll sway It's pretty deep in this hole we're in And who is willing to lend us a helping hand Pull us up to the surface where day is clearer and smiles become brighter Now will you leave or will you stay For it is not about what I say Just how and where you'll sway So tell me this Is it here or is it there?             Pamela Mkhize

I see a different you

Image
I see a different you In the way you speak, the way you scream and the way you dream I see a different you in your originality, individuality and uniqueness I see a different you in your sense of style, your walk and glide and the way you slide I see a different you in the way you smile, the way you're shy and the way you try I see a different you in your eyes and the way your voice curls up like a chocolate swirl I see a different you in your sunrise and sunset, in the woods and the vines, in the leaves and the figs , in your trees and your desert I see a different you in your prize and your light In your colour and your pride In your fortunes and your shed and the poor that lay spread I see a different you working toward a purpose, working to get that meal, that sleep and that sheet I see a different you starving from love , trust and hope that one day just one , Would believe and take that risk To have faith in you again. I see a different you, A vibrant you , Re...

Our deepest Fear

Image
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us . We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not meant to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world! There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that others will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to manifest the glory of God that is within us! It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, We unconsciously give other people permission to do the same! As we are liberated from our own fear, Our presence automatically liberates others.'' Marianne Williamson

People grow and things grow

Image
People grow and things grow People grow into greater beings into shadier dreams and into lost beams People grow and things grow People become independent and things become over welded People grow and things grow People become older and things become  worn out People receive tirelessly and things stay endlessly People change their plans according to their moods and things change direction swiftly.   People evolve over time and things become modernized over time People travel to see new things and things always stay the same Things get a new definition through refinement and people get trained over time People grow and things grow People become mature like wine in the vines and things become nature in the wild people dance when happy and things stare when happy People grow and things grow But respect grows as people know.

You never know when the days are gone

Image
You never know when the days are gone You never know when the days are gone when life changes completely You never know when the days are gone when life heals the neatly You never know when the leaves are gone when trees trend entirely You never know when life is gone when you least appreciate what is priestly You never know when days are gone and love triumphs in richly You never know when time has passed and stories are your reasoning You never know when happy is peace when fighting comes in beastly You never know when the opportunity has passed when fear kicks instinctly You never know when doubt leaves when strength knocks in deeply You never know when courage comes when success craves risks easily You never know when days are gone when the sun sets in dropping ,when the evening turns into dusk and the moon dims like a light. You never know when the days are gone when the globe loves you forever and you never know when the days are gone when hope has lost you completely...

Moonlight ago!

I've lost my way I don't know what to say I've tried to be with you But you've walked away. I've shown you love But I've drifted away You became envious And jealousy sprung over your shoulders, not knowing what to say I've lost my way I've lost my pain You've left a whole You've borrowed my soul. Staring at me paved your way Seeing how happy I've become without a part of you, Had encouraged you to change. I've warned you I've tried to explore with you, But you just stayed the same. Although me and my lonely face tried to keep you away I trusted you I've learnt from your mistakes To take and not to throw away. I've shared my past I've spared my memories I've tried to breathe along and fast- You've taught me to call down You've taught me patience You've opened my heart Received the love Stressed my brain Into insane! You are my part My one and whole No one can thrust into a br...

Now you see me

Image
You never realized me you never recognized me but now , You see me as this beautiful creature that comes from an incredible vine Surrounded by grape You never appreciated me you never heard me but now you see me and you hear my brilliant ideas that are full of life and anguish She was an invisible ant to you Always gazing ,pacing and hoping that you would recognize her But you didn't You saw that lovely quiet girl from nowhere A nerd you called her Away you drew her Before you showed her and begged her shoulder to lean before you owed her She was amazing ,sweet and trusting until you changed her And showed her You never helped me you never trusted me but now you see me as this amazing pebble that is as fragile as a glass stone You never emphasized on this you never made effort but now you see a stronger version of me that walks with a healed heart and a grateful soul You never protected me you never comforted me but now you see me as someone who can support you an...

I am his before I am yours

Image
I am his before I am yours I am God's Child before I am yours I am Jesus's Angel before I am yours I am a precious gem chosen by the finest artisans I am God's chosen desire and most favourite design of them all I am his before I am yours I am his disciple ,I am his student in every form I am his follower and he is forever guiding, protecting, encouraging and giving us wisdom . I am his before I am yours I am the daughter of the undefeated one The one who sacrificed his life and has given so much unconditional love The one that changed water into wine and fish to feed thousands of people I am the daughter of a living God One that opens doors for my future One that removes me from pain One that is everlasting and full of mercy One that is patient and persistent One that has timing that is rightfully his I am his before I am yours I am his prayer partner , I am a councilor and I am his friend I am his before I am yours Because he is in me as I am in him!!!...

At a distance

Image
I have learnt to love you at a distance All of you who have been there and been Good I salute you You who have given me the strength to keep pushing and you who believe in me But I have realized that I have to love you at a distance Which means that I will be polite and greet you because I respect you and acknowledge your presence and tenacity But I'll love you at a distance As you have seeked and sought You have taken and torn You have disrupted and aborted Everything away from me You have used and abused You have distracted my soul and left me with my bones For I'll love you at a distance I'll say hello despite the endless throws and the worthless foes Sometimes you have to allow yourself to love others at a distance because leaving them too close will create an enemy unknown.

I have a name

Image
I have a name Despite all the people that greet me Despite all those that despise me In all the circumstances I have a name In all the struggles I've been through Through all the praises I've given you My God, I have a name A name blessed by you A name with all that's sufficient A name with more than meaning A name that's always greening I have a name A name that makes me human A name that gives me power A name that always showers the everlasting flowers I have a name A name so humble A name so true A name that is never misunderstood A name so genuine a name that defines me A name that divides me A name that individualizes me A name that's lasting I have a name that entices you A name that excites you I have an African name that ignites you A name that recites you I have a name that beguiles you A name that manifests in God's benefits I have a name that is beyond the clouds Above the stars and next to the moon. I have a name. And m...
