Hope's Light


When hope's light shines, like beacon in the night

It guides us through, life's darkest plight

The heart, a haven, that doth its peace impart

And in its warmth, our spirits take heart


The hope, a gift, that doth our lives enrich

And in its beauty, our hearts find their niche

To hold on hope, and never let it fade

And in its light, our hearts forever stay


But hope's light flickers, like candle's flame

And in its shadows, our doubts take aim

Yet still we hold, on to hope's pure light

And in its warmth, our hearts find their might


To face the challenges, of life's darkest night

And in its beauty, our hearts find their light.

Shadow cries the baby



In darkness, shadows softly fall

A baby's cry, echoes through it all

A gentle soul, with heart so pure

Innocence abounds, yet fears endure


The shadow looms, a mysterious shape

The baby trembles, in an uncertain escape

But love's warm touch, can chase the night

And guide the child, to morning's light.

The Beauty of Brokenness



In shattered pieces, lies a beauty rare
A mosaic of brokenness, beyond repair
The cracks and fissures, a testament to pain
A story of resilience, that refuses to wane

The brokenness whispers, of a life lived bold
A history of struggles, that have shaped and mold
The scars and imperfections, a map of the past
A topography of trials, that forever will last

Yet in the brokenness, lies a beauty to see
A testament to strength, in vulnerability
A reminder that perfection, is not the goal
But in the brokenness, lies a beauty to unfold.

The Silence Scream



In the depths of soul, a scream resounds
Unheard by others, yet echoes all around
A cry of anguish, trapped inside
A silent scream, that cannot be denied

The lips are sealed, the voice is still
But in the darkness, a storm does build
The heart beats loudly, with a desperate cry
A plea for help, that passes by

The eyes reveal, the pain within
A window to the soul, where tears begin
The silent scream, a desperate call
For solace and peace, beyond them all.

Snoring of Darkness



The night's dark blanket wraps me tight

The shadows snore, a soothing sight

The world is hushed, in quiet sleep

As darkness whispers, its secrets deep


The moon's pale light, a gentle beam

Illuminates, the darkness' dream

The stars above, a twinkling show

As night's symphony, begins to grow


In this dark room, I find my peace

The snoring darkness, my soul's release

The world outside, fades from my sight

As darkness cradles, me in its night.

IF I WAS YOU, I'D NEVER SAY GOOD NIGHT.


If I was you, I'd never say good night

I'd chase the stars, and dance in moonlight

I'd let the world slow down its frantic pace

And savor every moment, every tender space


Your voice, a whisper, in the silence deep

I'd listen closely, my heart would keep

The rhythm of your words, the beat of your soul

In your eyes, my heart would make its home


If I was you, I'd never say good night

I'd hold you close, and keep the morning light

Forever with you, in dreams and in wake

Together, our love would never fade or break.

Hope In The Dark



Why me, Lord, why this strife?

Life's challenges rage, a constant fight

Endangered soul, lost in endless night

How long must I face this troubled life?


Fears and doubts creep, my heart does ache

Still I hold on, my faith won't break

In darkest moments, I pray and wait

For dawn's light, and a brighter fate


Life's waves crash strong, my spirit weak

But hope revives, my soul starts to speak

I'll trust in You, my Lord above

Good life will come, filled with endless love.

My Country



With corruption, calamity befalls,
False promises hurt, breeding salacious tales.
Root out pity, sow empathy's seed,
Scandals make our nation self-destruct with speed.

If we seek Earth's stability, we must act,
Reflect on our actions, and strive to attract
Redemption from sin, virtue our guide,
Unity in our heads, not discord's tide.

From youthful vigor, let's repudiate hate,
Embracing equality, we create a better state.
By example, we rule with justice and right,
Cheering our future with creativity's light.

Clavis Lucis(Key of Light)


A tiny figure, strong and bright

In desolate lands, a beacon light

The little girl stands, unafraid

With key in hand, her future displayed


The key aglow, like a guiding star

Illuminating paths, near and far

In darkness, she shines so bold

Unlocking doors, young and old


With every step, hope takes flight

The desolate land, transformed in sight

The glowing key, a symbol true

Of potential, waiting to break through


In her small hand, a mighty might

A brighter future, shining bright.

In your Grace,I Find Eternity





In the hush of dawn, when the stars still gleam,

You rise like poetry, carved from a dream.

Elegant grace in every breath you take,

A beauty that even the heavens can’t fake.


Your laughter is music, soft rivers that flow,

Guiding my heart where true feelings grow.

No diamond nor pearl could shine as bright,

As your soul that dances with morning light.


If the world should falter, or time stand still,

I’ll love you beyond every mountain and hill.

Through storms and silence, my vow will remain,

To choose you again and again without chain.


For in your eyes, eternity rests,

The place where my spirit is wholly blessed.

So here is my promise, whispered, composed:

To love you forever

and choose you most.

Shadow Of Prayers



In the hush where night forgets to breathe,

A shadow moves where no eyes see.

It bends in silence not to sleep,

But to a vow the stars still keep.


Beneath the hush of midnight's veil,

Where lamps of heaven softly pale,

A whisper breaks the woven dark,

And lights within the soul a spark.


Each sigh a psalm, each tear a thread,

Woven in silence, softly said.

The floor becomes a sacred sea

And every prostration sets one free.


No call of fame, no crowd to cheer,

Just God… and one who draws Him near.

Their hands are raised, but not for gain,

They seek no balm, yet soothe their pain.


The world lies still in heavy rest,

But in this vigil, hearts are blessed.

For in the shadows where they kneel,

They taste a love the day can't feel.


So let them fade before the dawn,

Unsung, unknown, but never gone.

For angels mark each quiet plea

The shadows of prayer… eternity

THE LAST WORD


 I won't explain the storms I've braved,

Nor plead my case with eyes still caved.

I've swallowed fire, danced with pain,

And wore my silence like a chain.


You see a hand, a rebel pose

But not the path that no one chose.

This middle finger, sharp and high,

Is how I learned to say goodbye.


Not to love, nor hope, nor grace

But to the ones who shamed my face.

To chains disguised as calm advice,

To sugar words that tasted nice.


So here's my truth: I will not bend.

This is my wound. This is the end.

Or maybe, just the start of me

Raw, unfiltered, finally free.

Agony of Motherhood



When sorrow's pangs my motherly heart do pierce,

And tears, like summer's showers, do freely flow,

The weight of care, the burden of my peace,

Do make my heart a heavy load to know.


The cries, the needs, the constant, nagging fears,

The doubts that creep, and will not depart,

The joy that's mixed with worry, and with tears,

Do make my life a tumultuous heart.


But still, I bear this burden with a grin,

And pray for strength to guide them through life's spin,

For though the agony of motherhood is real,

My love for them does make my heart reveal.


And in their smiles, my heart finds peaceful nest,

And all the agony is worth the rest.

Her Pen,Their Freedom

 


You wrote in ink the weight of silence,

turning hushed rooms into echoing songs.

From Ibuza’s dust to London’s cold streets,

your words carried the strength of mothers,

the long endurance of daughters,

the quiet rebellion of women who refuse to disappear.


You showed us that exile is not only a place,

but a wound stitched with memory and hope.

That love, when bound by chains of tradition,

must still be questioned,

must still seek its own freedom.


In your pages, girls found their names again,

wives stood tall before the storm,

and the poor, the unheard, the unseen

became immortal through your pen.


Now your stories walk without you,

their footprints pressed on every shore.

Buchi, your voice is river and fire

it will not die,

it flows on,

it burns on,

it teaches us to live unbroken.

How I Relocate Shadow In Sky

 

I chase the shadows, that dance upon the wall

Reflections of dreams, that echo through it all

In the sky's vast canvas, I search for a place

To relocate these shadows, and give them a space

 

With every step, they shift and play

Elusive and fleeting, they dance away

Yet in their darkness, I find a spark

A light that guides me, through the endless dark

 

Perhaps in clouds, they'll find a new home

Where they can roam free, and never be alone

Or maybe in moonlight, they'll find their nest

And in the stars, their secrets will rest

 

But till then, I'll follow their gentle sway

And relocate these shadows, come what may.
