SHATTERED HOPE

I am despair with the way life is

Last night I was content despite I didn't have enough to go by

Hoping today’s expectations will be better

But I am staving like am lost in a desert

Friends can’t help because we all are in the same mess

Its 10:00 pm, I look outside the window

Everywhere seems lovely, calm and so peaceful

One would not imagine anything disdain about it

But I am, am so hungry and weary that I can’t think properly

My hopes are fading away and I don’t know what to do

Though I knew when there is life that there will always be hope

Still I find it difficult looking myself at the mirror     

Because the reflection I see looks different

Worms in my stomach reminds me of their presence

I pay no attention because there’s nothing I can do about it

I look up hoping manna will fall

I look at the world if I can make bread out of it

If I can’t today, then what about tomorrow?

Am perplexed and troubled on every side  

My mind is feeble and body is weak

I still exercise faith as a patient dog

Hoping I will eat the fattest bone someday

But how long will I hope and contemplate

What will happen if i can’t help it anymore?

AM SORRY I DIDN'T LOVE YOU AS I SHOULD

You Feel Your Heart With Love For Me
Desperate Risk You Took Within
Stormy Nights You Still Waited For Me
Out On The Cold You Stood By My Doorstep
You Held On When My Love For You Was Drifting
Though I Had Nothing To Give
Yet You Saved Your Love All For Me
Your Love Much More You Spared For Me
Always I Felt Nothing Good Could Come Out Of It
You Prove Me Wrong With Your Affections
I Have Tried To Call You Many Times To Say Am Sorry
I Have Tried To Tell You Sweet Things
I Have Also Tried To Tell You How Much You Have Changed My World
How Your Love Pierce Through My Heart
How It Watered The Droughts In My Heart
And Flourish The Seed Of Love In Me

I Never Knew Someone Can Love This Much
You Must Be An Angel In Disguise
Am Sorry For All I Put You Through
I Know I Can't Pay You All Back
But I Can Only Promise You One Thing
That You Will Never Shed Tears Again
I Don't Want You To Go Away
Can You Please Stay Close To Me
My World Will Never Be The Same Again
If I Wake One Day
And Don't Find You By My Side
Am Sorry I Didn't Love You The Way I Should
Am Guilty Right From Onset
Am Asking You To Please Accept my Appeal
So I Can Make You Day Bright Again

LONELY

I am so lonely and I have got no body

There is no one in my life since you left me

Last night when you saw me walking down the street

I pretend I was getting along fine

Deep within me, my whole world has been crashing down

Am like a sad king that has no used for his crown

You don’t know how much you meant to me

It’s wrong when you said you were leaving me

And it wrong, I was so stupid for letting you go

Am sorry I don’t have the right to hurt your feelings

But please can you pick up the phone and call me

I could have called but I don’t know what to say to you

I don’t seem to find the right words to say I am sorry

Please can you come back home tonight

We need to finish what we both started

Since you left, my heart has be discarded

I promise to treat you right, and make everything right

Am so lonely and I missed you badly
