Black Poetry : A drop from my river of tears

[naija-man]

It has been a very long time since I have written a poem. so here I go.
I just typed as I went along..
I wrote this poem on 27/10/08…
It is/was a random poem, just trying 2 let out some of my feelings....
If could let out everything from inside, I'd probably have pages & pages of stuff.....


I have the feeling, the passion and the desire to write,
But as I look at the page my hands find it hard to write,
I wish I could pour my emotions onto the page..
And let out all my feelings from happiness to rage.
They say thy pen is thy sword, well mine has turned blunt
I almost feel like the lion that can no longer hunt.
If my heart had a voice, it would speak on and on,
It would sing songs of harmony till my small agonies are gone,
And if my hand could receive signals from my heart,
Then I would write words of beauty that would draw tears from the stars,
My words would spiritually soothe and heal emotional scars.
I feel like crying at times and I do not know why..
I have a few regrets of letting opportunities go by
I don’t wanna say that I have wasted my life..
Buy if it was possible, then I would buy back some time.
I would re-live the moments when it felt like the world was mine.
I would relish the days when the world around me was simply divine.
But tears cannot change things, so I will pray & pray some more,
I know my savior has many greater things for me in store…

naija:
It appears your sword has been sharpened
as you penned this piece prefectly. I can truly
relate to feeling it inside but not being able to
translate it to the page. You have a great
start here. Just keep it flowing....it will
eventually flow naturally. I felt your heart
in this.



Much Luv

Let the tears flow out thru the pen poet and your clouds will make way for the Sun....as I already see them parting!

The world around you is still divine .....great scribe
