I am like a face book status
Updated by God
You can click "like" on me
Hate me or ignor me
Only the updater above can delete me
You can not delet what you have not updated

Even if you think I'm lame or outdated
Send me your sweet bitter and better comments
I'm a status of vilage children
Singing and dancing after the rain.
I'm a status of township children
Singing and dancing on top of courigated iron
Poverty branded with banded dream
Yet still hoping for a better tomorrow without sorrow
I revive hope lost deep on liquer in the shebins
Where yesterday dreamers tell tales
Of what they used to be

I am galvanised with freedom of expression
I am a sweating passion of African fesion
My ticket to a gig of life given by God is with me
I am a township cheff marinating chicken
With dust spices feeding the leaders of tomorrow

I am a house builder without a house
I am a motor mechanic without a car
I am a hustler in the streets selling dreams of Jamaica
"Brotherman one love"
I am a status of my own
The child of Africa given birth by Africans
I am the status of my own happiness
I dance to the rythm of African songs
I am a status, updated by God.

A loving pain ...

She look into his eyes and knew he hurt, by the way he held his head away from crowd...
She saw someone approach him and the smile was there, as if by magic it appeared...

She knew everyone thought all was well, when in reality he was living in hell...
He stretched out his hand to take a drink, and standing so close her eyes on the glass she saw his fingers clink...

It hurt her heart, She felt his pain...
Knowing what it feels like to love someone, who may never feel the same...

smile

:-) and the world smiles with you
Frown and they will pass you by
Say hallo and a hi and smile goes a long way
Be miserable they don't want to know

Alone you will be
Not a sole will want you
Cry and cry alone you will be
Sad and depressed

Your days long and dark
Sadness you dwell upoun
Emptieness
In a rut you become

Dependant on depresants you becum
So briten your day do not dwell
Get out of bed
Smile its a new day

The field to plow is the life now, The seeds sown is the love grown, The harvest Eternal in Love, A Truth in Heaven Shown

Not missing you

Who is not missing you
The one that you make love to
the one that you let can carress your neck
and kiss your shoulders
Watch you grow older
Placing a candle on your cake
who can take a moment of your time
schedule a meeting place and find you waiting there with a smile
Who gets to compliment your style
Who is sharing your runway of life
Who will call you his wife
Who makes up excuses to steal away from family and friends
just for more time to spead with you alone
who can call you his own
Who is not missing you
like I Do

The Failure of my Love

I have been crying from the whole NiGhT
now the sun is shining in my street lane,
I still have a feeling that u MiGhT
call and pull me out of this immense pain

The life has always been so CrUel
and the people are very selfish
I desperately need your love as my FuEl
so that i can get establish

Please do not go AwAy
at least tell me what i have done
give me one last chance to SaY
that you are the only one

I wish that i was a BoOmErAnG
that way i would have come back
to my thrower’s HaNd
who has thrown me away because of her love lack

Now I am all AlOnE
and everything seems to be quite dark
I have been left on my OwN
by my lover, who on my heart made a deep mark.

Someone told me that this gloominess will FaDe
I am just lost in my dream land
I myself MaDe
I don’t need any magic wand
to save me from this cutting BlaDe
What I require is a helping hand
to take me inside the love ShAdE...

Salvation

Salvation

Sweet Jesus I owe everything to you and to you alone,
You have shown me my home,you are my anchor stone,
You have saved me always when stormy winds have blown,
You have always been my rock,the truest friend I've known,
So why do you think me worthy as a seed you have sown
What can I ever do to earn all the love you've shown .

Ch:
Let me know sweet Jesus, let me know beyond my days
Let me know my savior,when I bow down to you in praise,
When my time here is drawing short and coming to a close,
As they carry me away after leading the life I chose,
I pray that I will leave not sorrow for those that I love,
But instead to know the joy that waits for us above.

I am not a wealthy man but I am very rich by far,
When I walk my journey you're my guiding star
And you know that I am honest in all the things I do,
I have never born false witness,I only say what's true,
You have strengthened my soul before I even knew
Of life's losses with your love to see me through.

You have always had your hand placed within my soul,
You have shown me your light that has made me whole,
I have never known this love that comes from your grace,
Nor have I known compassion that shines from your face,
For I am still a sinner and you are the son of God
I can only meet you after I've slept beneath the sod.

About this poem:
Note: I could not get to sleep after attending a gospel show in our sister church.The entertainment was from my home town and they were great.Anyway,I had 2 cups of coffee for brunch earlier.Perhaps both kept me awake.The melody started in my head followed by the first line of the chorus,then I had to get up and this is the result.Other than a couple typos,I did not change one syllable.

Within the life

Within the life
Author: obladi
Unknown reason to be in there
a daily race which never ends
an endless hope for love to embrace
an endless rope tight us insane
with sight look up to the sky
we pray for justice and free life
we pray for happy life to live
before our call force us to leave,
We want to touch, we need to enjoy
we want to taste what is not true joy
We prone to exsaust our lives beyond
our limits,words,and Gods own laws.
Life is eternal gift for all
a song to write and sing along
A drop of water of devine realms
a ray of hope like a mystic breeze
a day which never reach to end
since we are never meant to end...

lovers dream.

Singles not connected in anyway, login here from day to day. Love they seek by day, happiness by nite; they pray. But could this yet be, an elusive distant dream? Each new day sees, new-faces coming on stream. Profiles they are building, hopes are all they have. Yet months and years passing, most remain for love- starved. Longing for that tender kiss, passions long unfelt and gone. Nightly reminiscence, of what they missed, wondering whether to go on. But dream on my brother and sister you dream too. 'connecting-singles' is like no other, dreams here do come through!

My heartbeat for a different reason it could beat because of the change of the season it could beat with the touch of your hand or it could beat because god gave me a second chance its funny how life can change my heartbeat in a different pace when I gave birth to my twin sons you should have seen my face I know my heart beat fast and sometimes even slow I wonder if the color of my heart is the color of the rainbow just remember your heart have the answer and it beat with a flow it can say yes or no
