Your words sting my heart
and imprint into my mind...
That hamlet where mum's lineage dwells,
Ancestral ruins, where silence swells...
Sis, I know you're tired, bone-deep,
The endless cycle, secrets keep...
My friend has not been very well
He has a condition which affects his teeth...
Just over a year ago
my brother embarked...
Grandma Esther
In your grandmother's embrace, you found your...
known quantity bereft of quality;
a name of little beyond its letters...
I remember your face
As it was after a long day of work...
Tempting to satisfy those friends, so fair,
Seeking their approval, their praise, their care...
You’ve turned my world
Into a paradise full...
Warmth hiding under a sea of blankets
As the chill air engulfs the night air...
We cannot choose the path that lies ahead,
for every step a new step starts to form...
