HIDE-AND-SEEK

Here I am with my dear in a magical forest We  stand side by side  looking at the stars " Babe,"  my beloved said with an angelic voice . " Love" I answered emotionally. " I would like to play hide-and-seek with you,"  my beloved continued. She  then hugged me gently and put her hands on my my eyes "Close your eyes Close your eyes my love " my beloved shouted. She then ran while my eyes were closed And I heard a voice shout: " Find me! Find me, babe" Thus, I went to look for my beloved I looked behind trees but could not find her But  then I heard her sharp  voice say  : " Find me ,love! Find me ,love!" I then walked just to find  her shirt on the ground I grabbed her shirt and continued to walk I then heard her voice again And I  felt closer to my beloved I kept on walking and found her skirt on a pile of leaves I grabbed her skirt And then as I turned around I saw my love walking  out in between two  tr

HAUNTED HEART

Cracking sound at the door Whisper in the dark room The  dead child appears again He is here to seek justice You might not remember him For you have heartlessly drowned him You might not even want to talk about him For you know what you've done to him Remember me, he said Remember me, he whispered I was the child that appeared  in your dream Smiling at you with an immobile face Remember me , oh Remember me darling I sneaked in your closet watching you sleep I opened the box and stole your favorite souvenir Remember me, remember me darling I was the child that haunted your heart With white face and yellow eyes I scared you away You ran thinking that it was real But I never ceased to give you nightmares I never stopped terrorizing  your mind For you have put me here in the afterlife Remember me, oh Remember me darling Wake up now , look in the mirror Your prescriptions won't appease the hallucinations The child will always emerge from your mirror For

THE LANGUAGE OF LOVE

They told me I've lost my mind  But how can I help it when you smile ? How can I resist a princess with eyes like yours ? I lose my freedom of speech around you  Everything I know I tend to forget Everything I was seems not to make any sense  It's like I have lost it all  But all of a sudden I have gained more than I ever had  I lose control around you ,love  You make me speak thousands of languages  Oh heaven hears me, babe God himself looks upon me and smiles  For that's how deep my love is for you  If you are a drummer, my heart is a drum  If you are a guitar, my heart is its strings  If you are a keyboard,my heart is the keys Why is my heart so violent?  Why is it always singing?  I think it's because it wants to proclaim something What could it be?  Could it the most powerful phrase? " Just say it,Rex! Say it!"  In Afrikaans, my heart says:  Ek is Lief vir u  In Tagalog it  shouts violently:  Mahal Kitá In Creole , it  echoes :

THE NAMIBIAN EXPERIENCE

Hear oh heaven! Listen oh Earth !  For the Lord has shown me a beautiful place You might have never heard of it  You might have never visited it  But dear friends, let me tell you about  the Namibian experience Hidden from most of the world Namibia dwells in the ancient Continent of Africa  It  is a country full of beautiful wonders From the beautiful hearts of black mothers to the astonishing sight of Victoria Falls From the caring labor of strong fathers to the   warmth​ of  beaches From the view of children playing on the streets to the view of vast deserts Namibia thrives and thrives again  Maybe it is not just a country of fascinating adventures  Maybe it is not just a place where happiness shines  Maybe it is just a living metaphor of human  struggle and success  In either side of the coin, Namibia remains a marvel to the curious minds  Oh Namibia , when will I see you again? When I will I step onto your soil and devour your food again? When will I sit by your

TOO REAL

The scariest thing about life is that it is too real There is no going back to the past to change the present Everyone wished they could miraculously have a second chance Everyone wished that the world was less real Dear readers, I want you to understand that death isn't frightening Life is the real reason behind fear and depression We have to make a decision and we must do it now Time is unforgiving and there is so much you can do in it You have to prioritize because Time is finite You have to live with regret and remorse for you can't fix your past The memories of possible success and relationship will live on in the mind However, time will not let them concretize You have to say yes or no You have to stay or leave You have to destroy or build You have  to break or repair Using our will , it's all that life is about Life is a cold and merciless reality All this is life All this is our past, present and future All this is our  light and darkness All t

Dear Sister

Dear sister, listen to me Blood of my blood, bone of my bones Pay heed to my words for they flow from within my heart I remember when I left you, you have just come out of the womb You don't remember me but I remember looking at your angelic face I remember feeling deep love for you  When I watched your eyes blinking while you sleep in the cradle I remember how your cuteness touched my heart   It was like an internal hurricane Like the erupting larvae of a volcano As I left you to go to the US, my mind could not stop thinking of you Sitting in the plane, your adorable face still lingered in my thoughts Your existence was stained in my soul When I arrived at my destination, I couldn't stop texting my family I kept asking for you day by day And now here I am still loving you Though I am far away, I still remember you Oh dear sister! My dear sister! I sometimes feel my heart beating when I remember holding you You were so little when I use to carry you and play with y
