SHE'S TRAUMATIZED...

She's writh in pain,

drenched in sweat of disdain,

emotions dilapitated

like a desolate house,

stigmatized and pushed aside

yet she lives with us,

wears faked loved smiles,

always standing naked

in her thoughts,

afraid of every touch,

dismisses love existence,

hates parents, sisters,

brothers and teachers,

because the trust has been violated.

She's of thorn skin,

willing to harm,

squeeze the breathe

of any that comes her way,

traumatized in every way possible,

always armed,

her experience is now life

of eternity,

memories of the violations

makes her violence

both in words and actions.

She's need help

not condemnation,

care, reasons to

bury the pain,

work on self she grows,

counsel in all godly manner,

reality check of agony lives on

if she fails to heed,

but must be done in all nobility.

Let's speak out for them

right now so many are in silence,

fear of death and humiliation

wears them as garment.

AMARA: YOU'RE STILL THE ONE

I give you my confidence

to keep

for morrow

when you speak.

Sweet it is to love,

your young heart

is so profound

in your beauty,

they open me more

to speak and write

untold virtues

of your loving kindness,

your smile is ever

contagious and refreshing,

so pure are the words of trust.

A jewel of no measure,

a beacon of beauty

you're to me AMARA.

I will still choose you,

not minding your tribe

nor your race,

you're the best amongst

your equals.

So I choose to stand tall,

face the storm together

and build the home

for the heavenlies....

You remain my jewel.

MY DEAR MOTHER

My dear mother,

because of you I'll live longer,

your counsels are ever rich

to awaken any dying soul.

My dear mother,

every man builds a house

but you make a home

for all to inhabit.

My dear mother,

no one has the well of wisdom like yours

that flows like waterfall of truth,

you embody all words of wisdom.

My dear mother,

my friend and my guide,

the strength for my father's friendship,

nation's mirror for growth.

My dear mother,

the health carrier of her home,

the one with undying love

for her children's tomorrow,

My dear mother, I love you.
