BUTTERFLY

Blue butterfly
Even if you were a brown bee you would still be beautiful
As beautiful a sunrise or the ember golden sunset
As lovely as the lake breeze sweeping my beloved’s skin
Wafting the fragrance of her perfume into my nostrils
When we sit on the bare rocks at the shores of Lolwe
Not minding their hardness against our bottoms
Just enjoying the seeping warmth rising and sinking into our flesh
Like the passion growing in my pulse that can evidently be seen and touch by my butterfly
In the sight of the envious hippopotamus sinking every five minutes finding us on the same spot
Mindless of time in childish simple love

Butterfly
Even if you were a bee
You would still inspire me to live a love for love’s sake
I would still love your color
Your shape and the way you dart in the wind
You would still be special if you give honey just as you inspire art
When you sting, I guess I would fear the same way I fear the itch of caterpillar’s fur

Butterfly
Even if you were a bee
You would still inspire me to work late into the night
Looking into your eyes for inspiration
Living to love another day
Believing tomorrow would be a better day
A chance to walk out to meet you in the wind
Write another song to the sun, lake, winds, and the one who is beyond all

HEART OUT

DARK

He sits alone in a silent corner of a dark room Trying to make sense of everything Everything is senseless at that moment Life seems to be worth everything Yet everything is worthless in his eyes He wonders why God had to make life in the first place and hopes it is not blasphemy No one wants to step on the toe of God more so those who hope heaven will offer a better home He is ashamed to admit that deep down he longs to be home Home is not this dark room filled with self doubt, anxiety and sorrow Home is where in the least he feels nothing Everyday he tells people to keep hoping but he  has lost all hope The only hope he has is that he will one day hope again Not hope to be rich or famous But to be happy for just a moment He hopes to slip over on his happiest day That is his dream He calculates how best to make his wish come But such days are to pracious to waste on fatal thinking He looks up to God Hoping not to offend Him and he prays for hope He prays that someone would listen ...
