Dismantle. Repair.
Death is imminent to all.
What would i feel then,
If you faded away:
Anguish, loss?
Or maybe just a blank, cold emotion.
A father you never were,
where was the warmth and love that we so desired,
but you slept in throughout the seasons instead,
frequent quarrels that echo the corners of this house,
i try to cover my ears;
but what could conceal the economic woes that plague us?
What if Ma were to go,
taken away by all the constant headaches that haunts her each night?
What would happen to this house then.
How much i want to tell her that i appreciate everything she has done,
but the pride and ego that stands in the way,
that i can hide in my room like a coward,
and whisper a prayer to keep her safe every night.
Prayer. Prayer. Prayer.
Church. People. God.
Judgements. Expectations. Pressure.
So hard, to just keep up.
I feel like a stranger in this home, this zone, this cell even.
Where's the foothold that i once built,
I find myself slipping away.
God, in your power, would you make some sense of this.
I dont want to cling onto the expectations of Men, but You alone.
If only, if only.
Girl, you were by my side,
to wipe these tears away from my eyes.
to love and be loved.
But No.
expectations, expectations.
Break me down tonight.

Landscape of the beginning.
Let it be a perfect heart for all your sweet romances.
Take my pride to cast the stone and justify my right.
Look beyond this...
Have you ever given orders to the morning,
Or shown the dawn its place to shake the earth of its ill.
Do you know the dwelling of the paths of light,
Or how the east wind scatters over our skin?
Can you bind the twinkling of the stars or loose the cords of Orion’s noble charge
Can you bring forth the constellations in their seasons
Could you fathom that?
May it be a perfect love for us to give the hopeless.
Take my life, I worry far too much beyond my might.
Look beyond this...
Do you know when the mountain goats are due birth,
Or watch when the doe bears her fawn.
Do you know who let the wild donkeys go free
Or why the ostrich flaps her wings?
Do you give the horses their strength and mane or why they shun no sword or trumpets reign Do you command the eagle to soar or slay his prey
Could you fathom that?
Is this pain going to take control of me
You have to be with me God in your power could you make some sense of this
I'm fighting for you only.
God if I crumble could you take me back to forever
So I could love you beyond this
So I could love you beyond this...

i hope its gonna make you notice.
just our hands clasped so tight,
your smooth palm fit oh so perfectly into mine,
we layed there in the midst of silence,
in which i saw one's mild sobriety.
Your hair that grazed my face,
my defence oh so paper thin,
such sweet scent that tugged at my heart,
why do i feel so vulnerable?
My utmost admiration of a love so austere,
a mirage of a perfect love,
as i await in anticipation.
But up to then,
your just a slender picture in my mind,
that slender that flickers every now and then.

Expectations, expectaions. Fuck You.
promoting suddenly isnt just about yourself,
its those around you:
the people whom you spent almost your entire childhood growing up with.
i want my friends back.
and all of the sudden,
i'm just caught between a web of emotions,
one of relief, ecstasy, and that of anguish.
stay strong guys.
i believe God has plans for all of you.
ah.

At the end of the day.
From the beginning of the year up till now, my life in jc has taught me many things and experiences alike. My eyes were open to the bitches and bastards, the hypocrites and bootlickers, and who your actual true friends were. I dare say life in SAJC has been tough, pretty much a stuggle for me to keep up with the hectic schedules, considering there's rugby and my serving in church. I finally understood the meaning of being humble over these period of times, when complacency could actually cost your team the semi finals of the rugby game. I dare say God rebuked and reminded me a couple of times to be humble throughout this year, to be thankful of what i'm blessed with and learn how to appreciate tose blessings.
Yet, Theres clearly a fine line between what can you can do, and how much can you actually do. So much so that i've found myself studying pretty hard consistently throughout the year, but always came close to passing all my exam papers. Come Friday, i might be presented with a tough dilemna when i get those results back.
To be honest, i was really touched when Jannah came and hugged me and told me that she would cry if i really had to retain. But a man is a prideful one, i must not shed any tears on that day. No, i musnt.
I've been thinking. And i feel that i really owe nichoas an apology. That i kinda dragged him into the shit in JC, hen he could have make the best out of his abilities in poly. Now he's facing retaining as well. Fuck you JT.
But whether or not i have to face making the decision, i just pray that all that happens, is in God's will for me.
Ah, theres so much thats tearing me inside out now.
But no, i will not cry.
i musn't.

just let me be.
i want nothing of the lies, burdens and troubles.
i cant seem to maintain a stronghold with God.
i dont want to be weary and tired anymore.
i just want to be free.

*Fin
Take what you will, what you willAnd leave. Could you kill, could you kill meIf the world was on fireAnd nothing was left but hope or desireAnd take all that I could bring forth, is this hellOr am I on the floor over-desperate?Hold hands streaming of blood again?And then take full weight of meGuard my dreams, figure this out,It's me on my own. Helpless, hurting, hell.Will you stay strong as you promised?Cause I'm stranded and bare.Meanness is washed up in all that I amIs God. Take this and all,Then grace takes me to a placeOf the father you never had:Ripping and breaking and tearing apart.
This is not heavenThis is my hell.

i tell you the truth.
we're all the facade that we all seem to avoid.
we're nothing but the false fronts and sweet sparks,
that are meant to satisfy the person next to us.
every single word, or actions,
are just a tool to throb your heartstings.
bullshit.

and when we find out we're all slaves to money.
to be confined within the towering walls of,
expecations and limitations.
a tamed animal,
that has becomed of him,
deprived of his desires and ideals, he is.
sedated, and tranquilised.
down on our knees, are we not?
but i will breakthrough,
with this covenant my Lord has formed with me.

and all of a sudden,
i just find myself missing people,
people who once touched my heart,
but have drifted ever since.
we've all made our choices.
we've all chose our lives,
sadly.

what if,
it was just me and you,
no words spoken
as silence unfolds.
but our presence shall speak forth,
of passion and love,
that surrounds and,
we indulge in.
wholeheartedly, i will.
but would you stand with my slience?

beyond boundaries.
i've kept myself shrivelled up,
concealed, and hidden,
layer by layer,
of words, thoughts and emotions unknown.
i'd give you an onion,
but would you gently slice it,
layer by layer,
to reach into me?
and as you do so,
uncovering and unwrapping,
layer by layer,
would you tear like how an onion causes you to tear?
but as i submit myself to your kitchen knife,
willingly, i will,
layer by layer,
embrace your blade and beauty.
but what you'l never see is my heart,
that i fear, i can never bear to you.

darlin'.
And I can not stop thinking about you,
I can not stop wondering if you're constantly thinking about me.
Don't close your eyes dear,
I'm still staring.
I won't lie dear,
I'm still breathing,
even though your beauty is breath taking.
Sweet Darling,
this is my confession to,
the crimes of wanting you badly.
And Darlin' if you're wondering,
here's your answer:
yes, I like you.
I don't love you I can't love you.
Or at least i dont think that i do.

spiders.
If God was on the radio,
I know he'd say to thee:
Love is spiders on the edge,
and we're hanging by a thread,
connected to the other end
of this twisted frequency I've spun,
But I don't care, I'd be happy,
If you'd share,your web,
with me.
So come on, come on,
and say so,
come on, come on and say so.
