Please stay

When “Let Me Go”

Is “I want you to stay”

“For the love of God, set yourself free.”

Pushing away, yet needing so much,

Sacrificing all for idealism you clutch.

Stupidity you thought you never caught 

Now weighs you down, like tangled knots

Do yourself a favor: live,

Breathe deep, 

take what life can give.

Eat, pray, love and repeat

for God’s sake, please,

Unshackle yee soul and findeth thy peace.

Cosmic joke

Then why is left right, and right left,

A dance of opposites, a cosmic jest?

Why is yin yang, and yang yin,

A circle eternal, where all begins?

Why is black white, and white black,

Shadows and light on the same track?

They search for me in places begotten,

Paths long traveled, yet truths forgotten.

Where do you go when you seek the truth?

Beyond the mirror, beyond your youth?

We act cool but deep within

We keep talking 

Saying everything 

But not what we feel

We fill in the blanks yet they still remain,

Spaces that words can’t truly explain.

We keep it clean 

We’re careful with the sheets, 

Keep tidy and neat,

Playing it safe with strategies discreet.

We say it all, yet miss what we plead,

Dancing around the words we need

My Playbook

Don’t take advice from those  

Whose paths diverge from yours—  

Their steps may lead to cliffs,  

While you may sink with sheep’s

When life hands you lemons,  

Don’t just make the juice—  

Swallow it whole, my friend,  

Let its sharpness be your truth.

When opportunity knocks,  

Don’t just answer with grace—  

Grab it by its face,  

And make it know its place.

Don’t linger in the shadows,  

Waiting for others to choose—  

Be in tune,  

Let your spirit groove

Gods Grace 🙏🏾

Instinctively, I know the game of chess,
Playing my role in this hunger quest.
Some say “checkmate” first,

I’m the late bloomer guest,
Steadily building my little nest.
By God’s grace and Grandma’s rest,


And for sure, the air I breathe is my witness.
I play my part here and there,
Watch the magic stars descend,
Take notes, reassess,
But never relent.

Rockstar pose, wanting the best,

..but never without zest
