HEARTBREAKER

Last Friday night
I thought of calling you over
Needed to quench the prolonged thirst
Minutes staggered by as the thoughts of what should have been flooded  my mind
I hate to admit it though
Don’t misinterpret it for denial
Just couldn’t give you power to hurt me again
Over and over you had done it
Useless I became under your care
I ignored your abuses and lies
You were my cocaine
An addiction rehab couldn’t cure
Was scared of loosing you than loosing myself
A sacrifice that you trampled on
Leaving me heartbroken and wounded
I saw that coming
But held on hoping for a miracle that never came along

WHAT MY MAMA GAVE ME

My mama didn’t give me a booty to shake
the little patch she gave me happens to be my derriere
But with the small thing came a million plus regulations

My mama didn’t give me a pretty face to get  people competing to drop me favours
Instead I got a bigger head
all that mattered was that which was hidden between the ears

My mama didn’t raise me up as a princess
I had a customized jembe even before I could make steady steps
the hustle and bustle of life
Is something I grew up knowing

This woman
never brought me up to be a housewife
told me to work hard that I may never depend on a man
a nightmare that pushes me to work hard

My mama gave me so much in little portions
Sometimes I wish it had been the opposite
but what’s the use of a face with no brain
a booty with no virginity
a princess without survival skills
with this little gifts
I’ll always be thankful to her

C’EST LA VIE

Guess i was to much preoccupied with aeroplanes that i didn’t get to enjoy the beauty of life.My definition of happiness was narrowed down to a life where i get to be in contact with planes.Until just the other day,i realized i had been shallow and stupid in  my thinking.For us to be happy,we don’t have to link our happiness with people, things or anything else.The moment we do that then our happiness is limited.You don’t get to be happy knowing you haven’t achieved your goals or the object of your affection is not in the vicinity.I have been sad inside for ages,i didn’t get to have planes all around me.Learning to accept reality is hard but you only have one life to live so why spend it worrying about stuffs you cannot change.This does not mean giving up on your dreams or goals,it simply means being contended with what you have but still striving for more.
