Risen from Ruins




Time goes, tick and tock,
Not to pause, not to stop,
Not a moment to be a friend.
Not to care of how i do.

Tragedies strikes, ship on the wreck,
Hope and life all to sink,
But greater heights my heart is set,
So the struggle not to die.

Risen From Ruins , the day is come,
When crown shall be for crosses;
Blessing for curses, boom for doom,
And medal worn around my neck

The truth withheld

Image
I'm a Priest. I'm thirty. My name is Samuel. Priesthood has always held a special meaning for me. Everyday during mass, I'd fall in a trance, listening to our Parish Priest. I'd imagine I was the on the pulpit. My white sparkle like that of the angels without spot; with all glow. And as we sang "are you washed with the blood" during communion, I'd close my eyes, my hands pressed together as I took the communion. It always felt like heaven. I almost did see God smiling down at me, and almost did hear his voice booming through the speakers in our auditorium saying; "this is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased" I joined the seminary quite too early. I joined when I started hating the world and its ways, and that was really early. I got into the seminary first in my mind at six, although in reality I joined at twenty after my university education. I did a course in guidance and counseling. As you might have guessed, I didn't ev...

Tasting tear drops (part 1)

Image
Tomorrow, it'd be second August again and Mary will go out to China town. She'd buy herself some beautiful Chinese lanterns and all sorts of decor she can remember. Each year, they become less because of her amnesia. Then she'd stop by her favourite Chinese restaurant and buy everyone sushi. Dad will help take out everything in the garage and she'll set up her decorations, it had become some kind of ritual, one that only both of them understood. She'd set up dinner table for two and she'd place two seats. When the clock strikes nine in the night and the star lights are in place, for some bizarre reason, there are always star lights in the sky on the second of August. Its as if even God understands that the night lights are important to her. She'd dress up in a beautiful dinner gown and come downstairs, and dad as always, will take her by the hand and walk her to the front door. Once she was outside, she'd hug an imaginary figure and point to the sky....

LISTEN

Image
Listen. To the tale of my mind The sound of hope. The voice of truth You can discern Only listen. Listen. To the memoirs in my eyes You better envisage And let your heart descry I guess you'll simply grok Only listen. Listen. To the whispers of my heart To what I might not say It doesn't cost a thing Solely save the stress Only listen. Listen. To my utterance for help. The voice that is denied. Why wait to respond. Abate all false remark.. Only listen. Listen... And only understand. You ought not speak a word. But heed my dashing phrase Rather than arbitrate Only listen. How pleasant the world would be If people only try To hear and comprehend Rather than just reply Only listen. Poem by: Joy Ngofaa

Perfect Gent

Image
Eyes like snow Lips as rose Towering and strong So were his nose Face kind and noble Pure and dependable With a glow of beauty And genuine masculinity Voice endearing with hope His voice sounded like the wind Blowing swiftly over my ears I fell completely As I gazed continually Into those cold eyes of his I wish for more than anything For a gentle touch I wanted him to hold me Effortlessly against his masculine cavity To feel the scent and warmth Of his cold embrace As I tried to move closer Maybe kiss him if I could The greatest surprise of all Came when I finally saw This perfect gent I saw Was just a hallucination.

New things

She woke up with a stat Her hand went straight to her neck, seeking the comfort of the neckchain shaped like a moon. It was given to her by her late granddad. In the darkness, she stretched her hand forward. Already accustomed to that dark, she clicked the switch to her bedside lamp. Her room was immediately filled with a warm yellow, putting her heart at ease and bringing it back to its normal beat.  Still goosebumps rose on her skin. Her mind going on a shuffle, replaying the dream over and over like a video that wouldn't just stop. She looked at her bedside clock..               4:00 it read Her dreams were beginning to become an alarm clock. She pulled off the comforter and sat up straight her back resting on the wooden panel of her bed.     One thing was more vivid than the rest in her drean~ her grand father garbed in a white caftan with silver embroidery on the sleeves and neck, walked meticulously towards her...

NATURE'S SONG

Image
What happy music nature brings the buzzing of a bee. The hummingbird with flying wings, chirping crickets I see. And playing in the field sheep bleat the dogs will just go bark. The ocean murmurs in the deep croaks at the river bank. Now in the coldness of the night Owls go hooting nearby. The cats go meowing midnight time just as the bats go by. So every morning listen I to music nature brings. But every creature that goes by possesses nature's gift And how I love the precious rhyme up there below the sky. Each time I see the birds that fly I see the need to cry. The echoes in my ear so loud. as ducks go quacking long. Dancing, jumping beside the pond We'll sing the nature's song.
