TALES HOUR

 There’s a story that is oft told in hushed tones in Moi University. Mashoka. He was Vlad the Impaler, sprinkled with a tinge of sadomasochism. He had an axe to grind, which is a problematic metaphor, considering an axe was what he’d use to terrorise students. I never met Mashoka, but his lore deterred us from the vicinity of girls’ hostels at night. Well, until we realized we could deal with Mashoka too. When freshers joined university, we, buoyed by unexplained anguish and general restlessness and the heave-ho of youth exuberance, also indoctrinated them to Mashoka, warning them about the vile-cuss-swearing-machete-wielding mad man who targeted students. If Mashoka was the devil’s roar, we were the voice of God. We’d ramble about the legend of Mashoka, mmhhing and aahhhing and weeeuuu-ing at Musese. Musese was the comrades’ corner. It was a diplomatic site. No man’s land. Here, there was no king or pawn, just comrades. Chapati kojoa was my go-to meal—Number 5. Five chapatis and s...

RIP TO MY FEELINGS

Sometimes wrong choices brings us to the right places I have learnt not to follow different type of chases I'm that person everyone replaces after a while I'm always sweet others are like bile The worst feeling is wanting to scream and don't want to be heard at the same time  I wanted you to win even when we were on bad terms I don't know why I was a fool under your charms They said self love is the beginning of love I lack my senses my goodness is all I have I overthink because I notice everything I gave you all I had you didn't give me a thing I loved you at your worst you left me at mine How do I keep giving you chances to be my wine I'm intoxicated by you am doomed like hell's member I hate getting flashbacks from the things I don't want to remember The worst way you can leave someone is in silence It's hard but I'll live through your absence My eyes met many eyes but only got lost in yours When you were sick I did everything to be your many ...

Knowledge Buried Deeper Within

  Ignorance is bliss,more like a stolen kiss Not knowing is okay,but not wanting to know is not okay Knowledge is acquired but wisdom is born wired Read,learn and try to change your life,to some it sounds boring They'd rather choose slumber in the land of snoring We get turned on by words on a page Written pieces on torn pages create such a rage Why not stop your normal life and hit the library for a change Go deeper and deeper in search of knowledge Ignorance is a form of stupidity that can cause brain damage Make your mind wander to the infinity Know the unknown move out of the comfort vicinity Don't let the day end without knowing something new It might upgrade the knowledge you initially knew Be your own teacher and also be a good student Be practically wise be one of those who are prudent Fight your way in research,do not have the I don't know attitude Do geography,learn about mountains and their altitude Use google to find the things that are doubtful Check your books...

DEPARTED SOULS

  Embrace death, and know the meaning of life Appreciate the end to know what justifies life's strife Body sleeping under whitewashed tombstone, souls in different locations A thick line between worlds, so hard to develop an adaptation Souls floating like a giant bubble Oh how I wish there was another me, my double How do I rest with soul so empty,  How do i sleep when the living won't let me go It was many years ago, I want to have my RIP Only then would I be a departed soul Am a screen that's broken, am a record that's also broken I live a life just as small portion of a big token Who's to blame? I never asked to be here I never wanted any one to come so near Am a lost one, in a paradise so lost Come and break me again, it wont make a difference Shit, how y'all came to me and said am the one Now at this stake am tied and y'all laugh and watch me burn But that's alright, I love the way it hurts Am I envious to see you happy Come on, Iam but id rather no...

Broken So As To Be Made Whole

See, am am a rose flower growing from the concrete The shit I've had to pass through isn't a secret I got bitten, beaten, broken, killed, and even devoured I've been a virgin that has been brutally deflowered Am a tree that was cut, burnt but still surviving Am a seed that can grow even in fire just striving I am but a book of life's painful lessons Don't read it, live your life just press on I was in a cage called love, a cage if affection A cage so dark that I raised demons in my attention I thought I was okay, but am not okay, and never will If you choose the path of joy, be ready for a raw deal I'm bad as much as I know am bad Am the type to squash the head of a tiny bird I wanna be whole, but first let me be crushed Am the whisper an the voices in the dark that are hushed I don't want light in my tunnel, not at all I wanna be the cripple who wanna play ball I don't wanna smile, let me stay with my rage I am but a wounded bird in a broken cage See, y...

See No Evil

Life.... Oh life. It made me burn like a flame Made me see darkness and pain the same Gave me raw deal that made a big time insane Well, come, you see these vouchers and tickets?  They were for the journey I took to hell and back As I sit down and write this, I still have the scars  I still nurse the burns and the wounds now I can see the stars My eyes saw death, pain and suffering My mind was slow, talk of pathetic buffering Now I can see a speck of life, I see no evil Depression is blissful as you don't wana to let go Piece by piece I came tumbling like parts of a Lego People looked at me with xray eyes Pinning me down with their gazes no one to give an advice Like a knife cutting cheese so were the words I received I thought I was a happy soul in love, but I was deceived Nothing made sense, life was short and I was blinded to the soul Memories broke me over, I don't think am gonna be whole The past has a way of creeping up on us Comes back to bite us in the ass Its pain bec...

I'm just a poet

I'm not an ogre, whom you can run for safety I'm not a movie, which you can watch I'm not an angel ,for you to accuse But I'm just a poet When l take a pen and a book, words usually flows from nowhere When l think of a theme, obsession do take its position As if I'm possessed or not, lines do show their ways I'm just like you, created like you but accuse me not For I'm just a poet Let my ink not break our friendship Let my ink not do as a part Let my ink not bring hatred But apply literature in my article For I'm just but a poet When my pen ironicizes love, don't judge me When my pen coincidentally infringes your peace, don't judge me When my pen acts ill-manneredly,don't judge me I'm just a poet

The poet

You can run, You can hide Say goodbye, Even cry But the world/life is a cycle you run forward Only to get back Its who you are Its what you feel You can't run and be real Every word Every experience A throwback back to you Its a lonely road Being a god Seeing life through a 3rd iris Experiencing pain as a third party Or joy you can only desire Only to create... Only to enlighten, Emotion in pen motion A succession of words Nonsense that makes sense Breaking rules of grammar Feeding them to a crammer That's poetry That is who you are Your life will always be poetry                                    

Last ink drop

The moon is high up already, Its time to write down my fears, To write down my last wishes, To bid bye to the letters that gave me happiness, Till but another time, maybe in another world Bye poetry. With pain I have to bleed my last words, The words of pain of a lost poet, One forced to exile from his peace land(motherland), Gone to bleed on his injuries at the cliffs, The cliffs which blend pain and torture, Bye poetry. I would have liked to stay, To stay and write those pieces again, To make them smile even when on the sword's edges, But am sorry, This shall be my last handwriting, Bye poetry. I shall take my route henceforth, My demons I will face and fight, I pull off the poetry pain hiding mask, Just to place things correct again, But till then; Good bye loyalists Of my poems Bye poetry                💔💫😰

Masks off

It's been long So long carrying this load Load of pain Pain of my dad leaving me Pain of a misstep in studies Shame of failing Heart ache of heartbreak Feeling of unworthiness It's been heavy But, I've listened and seen How it has slowed me down Blinded me from light From the future at hand And I'm tired of wearing this masks To hide how i feel To cover the tears i shed The bleeding wounds I'm tired of it all It drains me I miss much life I wanna let it all go I want to live I'm done surviving It's time to face my demons It's time to talk to my inner self No need to cover my eyes It's time to peel the mask off Throw it away and fight One last tear One last fight Arms on arms The pain i feel it's not meant to stay Dad i forgive you wherever you're My exe's i forgive you And wish you happiness Dear self I'm sorry for the pain It's time to move on Its to live Masks off.

I'm just me

Image
You see I'm only me Not you or anyone No more no less Just me is all I can be Sometimes I laugh Others I cry I whine I dine Just to live is what I want Sometimes I wished I could die I Tried suicide even But its all life Sometimes I'm funny others I'm gloomy Sometimes I'm sad hopeless Others I'm happy bountiful Sometimes I'm introverted Others I'm extroverted I am a  loyal true & honest friend Just know I'll be there till the end Give more expect less is my mantra I'm romantic sensual passionate too To the love of my life to "Juliet" I'll share this with you I can be sweet or shy Sassy or dandy Quite a handful I've been told I'm a hunk handsome desirable maybe I'm not I'm not perfect you know I do have my faults, imperfections Sometimes when I get scared Treated like an option, casual I withdraw, I put up high walls I'm not much forgiving like I'd want to Because when I ge...

He Loved her more than I could

Image
He loved her more than I could, He took away the pain I put, He embraced the scars from my blows, He made her glow again, Just like the beauty she was, I take fault for my mistakes, For the nights I made her cry, For the mornings I didn’t remind her she was amazing, I am guilty for not been the man I should have, For not calling her day by day, For not loving her right, For not embracing her tight, For the days I didn’t remind her she was my all, The promises I broke, The pain I caused, The vows I didn’t keep, I regret every minute I didn’t appreciate her, The times I treated her as though she was ordinary, The days I wiped off her smile, Bruised her heart, Walked out on her, It took losing her to see how hurt she was, How sad her eyes spoke, But how much she was dear to me, I wish she could see the regret in my eyes, Or weigh the weight of my apology, And the love I still feel, I wish we could start again , but am not her better man She deserves him, ...

DAMN

When you walked out on me, When you turned you back on me, It ripped out my heart, the pain was Unbearable, I didn’t imagine I’d make it To another day, it was always a struggle I drowned in sorrows, I sought to flee but in vain, I’d sit by the window, and look Outside, Hoping you’d come back like you always did, And everytime a yellow cab pulled over, I’d be uptight, Then when another stepped out, I’d plummet Into hopelessness Damn you, you said you believed in Us Damn you, you said we had something special Damn you, you said you’d never leave my side, Damn you, you lied! Damn you for all the tears, Damn you for all the pain, Damn you, we deserved better, Damn the years we lived together Damn the words we wishpered to each other, Damn, I thought you were like no other, You were just another bastard, son of a b*tch, Damn the delusion of happiness you spurred, Damn the loneliness, Damn You, I reckon all the days we shared, and I regret falling for you!

HER!

she knows things she knows so much more than you realize noticing it all and so much of what she sees has become too much for her heart she lives with it your secrets, your lies the things you’ve kept hidden she knows every hiding place and yet she says nothing she sits silently watching you play a losing game with her heart one day she’ll let you know what she knows and that’ll be the day that she’s ready to let go

POETRY

I love, Starve, Crave, And serve, Just because I have feelings. My lover loved another, My feelings fled to another, My love shifted to the phone, A secret home of complete pleasure. My closet of full unseen sweetness. She found another tool for satisfaction, My own drops of affection found joy in sight, In seeing and feeling good, So much pleasure than my body could withstand. She nowadays loves masculine men, My body alone cannot withstand chest pain, So I let her go in the name of love, Just so I’d watch and touch all I have. Moaning in silence sounds sweet With emotions flowing from my fingertips Legs crossed with the mouth wide open, With racing breaths and temperatures. Pleasure for lesure, Craving for self touch, Passion for hidden trials, Of Love that keeps you away, Just so I’d groan and moan in sweet pain.

FADED

I remember that feeling whenever you held me so close, I was so excited every part of me felt jumpy. Oh darling , I was so high on you I don’t recall a day I didn’t long to lay on your chest or sway upon the dancefloor with you, I remember how the world spun around me when you twirled me those nights, How you showcased me to the room, like I was your prize. Oh, your deep interlocking stares that left me hungry and wanting. But words could never define you cause darling I never found such a safe haven You were my favorite place. Baby, you were love.

VANITY

Nothing in life is worth fighting for. Your best clothes is someone's rag, your account balance is someone's donation at a function, your girl friend/boy friend or fiancé/fiancée' is someone's Ex. Every single prostitute you see in a hotel or on the street at night was at some point in time a virgin. So what is the squabble all about? Life is too short and small to feel bigger or better than anybody. "We're all naked to death" says Steve Jobs.  "Nothing can save us from it". I hate to see people who brag about wealth, beauty, intelligence, level of education, fame and material possessions. There's nothing you've achieved in life that no one else has never gotten. The office you occupy today was occupied by someone yesterday and will be occupied by another person tomorrow. You don't know whom that person might be. There's only one thing that is worth bragging about which is "LIFE IN GOD ALMIGHTY". SO BE GOOD TO YOUR FELLO...
