Your name—
a rhythm in my chest
a song the moon hums
when silence falls.

you are the calm
in my storm of thoughts
the smile that steadies my wandering heart.

under weather

it has gone to pot
this nation....
the nation,
that they swore to repair
now disrepaire

it's dark & gloomy
adding few more doses
of woes.
we frown with tears

when shall we,
wake up with the smile
on our faces
lekë wök ye na

I was lost
in the dark
I was alone in the scary jungle
when we both were apart
whenever I'm doing something
I reflex my thoughts back to you
thinking of the past
thinking of the love we had
I tried to smile but cried , instead
I was lost
I was alone

but then ,
I found you again
when morphed, into someone
I feel like I'm in that desser
where the sun laughs at me
where the sand wants to bury my heart

I feel your absence again
when you tease me
When I call
You always say you are busy

Where is the love
that we once swore, not to let go
where's it now
Tell me,has it fade
or it's still me dreaming

Fine Nuer

I was timid
and so was she
her gaze met mine
In silent symphony

i professed my love
& she just smiled

a maiden from a tribe
where my love roamed wild

In my absence

she morphed into someone
unknown
her eyes reflect a stranger

yet it's me she sees
the man she once adored

love,
an ever-changing hue
a transformative force

will you coerce
will you compel me
to cast my vote
under your spell
when in your grasp
I suffocate
as they did
in tears' weight.
Will you enforce
will you control my voice?
to support your aim
I have no choice.

In shattered pieces
we collided
our hearts
fractured
yet undivided.

Love's mending
touch brought harmony true
two broken souls
together we grew

Her smile
like a gentle flame
lights my soul

guiding me
through darkness
with love untold

In her presence
my spirit is made whole
her smile
a world of joy
I will forever hold.

In distant lands
our love now severed
forgotten
lost
a bond grown thin.

Yet I, alone
still ache & yearn
silently dying
my soul is thin.
