in your heartwood/ black acacia

Black acacia
Diamonds in the desert
The cactus of Africa
To me you are my symbol of home
The person I wish to be
Only alive
Just enough to feed my senses
While the rest of me lay dead.

Black acacia
That skin I wear
The tone in my voice
That nappy curl in my hair
You are my roots
The symbol of all I wish to be
Only consciously alive
To see what the world sees
While your subconscious rests
In your heartwood

friends (to the very end)

Birds chirping
As the sun rises
Day breaks
So its time to get ahead

To go about our days
Working for our dreams
To love so freely
And care so openly

When days go cold
In my heart I shall warm
If it ever gets freezing
My light shall be your warmth

You are me
I am you
We are one
For we are friends to the very end

on a redemption trail

He grovels on
Slowly limping
From the cripples
Life has brought on

He marches
Stick in hand
Bag over his shoulders
He has moved on from his plight

He is no king
He is no leader
He is no boss
He is just human

An individual who has
Been down so much
His life is no longer a rollercoaster
Its more off a merry go round

He rolled round and round
Tossing and turning in my plight
Stagnation had become his ailment
So he had to move on

He had to push away from his misery
He had to move away from his plight
So he put his back pack on
And started back on his journey

He is a travelling man
Moving through places
Moving through the times
Because he has a lot to do

So he is that phoenix
Rising from its ashes
That athlete
On a come back trail

This is his life
This is his story
Because I am that young man
Who is on a redemption trail

Dear Heavenly father
If you could hear me now
Listen not to my words
But rather guide me to my dreams

something to teach

What I see
You shall see
Through the eyes
That you have in me

What I feel
You shall feel
Through the heart
That you have in me

What I know
You shall know
Through the mind
That you have in me

I am
Never without you
We are
Never without I

For when you see two sous talking
Sharing what is, positively
My brother
That is God right there

So what I see
You shall see
And what I feel
You also shall feel

For we are one
Connected by an all knowing source
That's why what I know
Ultimately you shall know

Because it is our journey to find out
What mine brother gets to feel
Its my journey to teach about
What mine brother has not dealt

We feed of each other
Relaying messages across the board
So that we could all know
But some people wish for us to never find out

Never call them evil
Never scold
Or treat them with hate
For they also have for you
something they can teach you

infatuations of the heart

Infatuations of the heart
Never knowing if the feelings a real

I sit in the dark and wonder
In silence I ask myself if I should make that first step

The heart beats faster when I think about
But even infatuations of lust bring it to its knees

It longs for a companion
But for now by its self I want it to be

I'm I at fault to deny it love
When I know a deeper one exist

Deep down in our bare bottoms
Naked we shall be both in the light

So a mistake I don't want to make
When I know there exists a love that is more real

my light(my shining example)

Peace to the kid who just bought his first packet of new ports
You think you're the man now
But you're a new born
And you just proved it by having a curious mind
Because I don't want to talk about the one about to spark up his first blunt
It seems wherever I go the same mistakes become reborn
Is this the life we live
Is there no way out of it
For we fall into the pitfalls of society
Its violent death trap rat race
Only to discover that there is no way out
For we are now trapped in a barren desolate wasteland of dreams
Where their failures have turned into a nightmare we call a life
As we take our final breaths from this plight.
But this is not the life that I dreamed of
I invisioned a better place
Where there is an end to this vicious cycle
Nolonger having the need for young girls to be out there prostituting
Many do not believe it
That is because they are raised to be sceptic
Well I won't let them damper my optimistic heart
For I have faith in the hope that I will make there
Or at least touch enough lives that my journey will live on
In the hearts of men
Inbedded into their minds
As it becomes inprinted into their souls,
Mine is a periless journey
A task too heavy for an individual soul
But I have learned to let my light be the shining example

Eon of enlightenment

Enter into the realm of dawn
Of the Eon of enlightenment
Where we journey into the mind
To reveal all questions
As we answer the unanswered
We shall divulge your mind
From the comfort of its serenity
With our serendipitous minds
As we search for the light of truth
For the truth lies in the light
The mind perceives it not
It can only turn it into an imaginary spectrum
Only the heart can it feed
For only the heart is where its made for it to be felt.
We are the Eon of enlightenment
For the age of change is upon us

#Peace. 27/04/15
