I AM A RICH MAN'S CHILD

I am a rich man's child
I don't know what walking bare feet means
Or how it feels to sleep on an empty stomach
Unless of course I choose to.

I have gone to the best schools
International ones
I got the best education
Even though my grades were not that pleasant
Local education does not suit my quo
I have wined and dined with the high ranked
From ambassadors to the king's men
I drove my first car at 16
I panic at the presence of a fly
Get immunized against germs.

I wear Prada and Gucci
Where is Gikomba anyway?
I party at expensive clubs
I associate not with the common citizen
I definitely can't be your friend
If your family name is alien
How will I answer to my father
How I ever met you?

I didn't choose to be born here
It's not my fault you are not me, or like me
I do not apologize
Why should I?
I am a rich man's child.

THAT WOMAN

She's a petal
Attractive and fresh
She pulls me to her
With a magnitude of magnificence that
Makes me lose my senses
She's is a gem
Not like diamond or gold
Those you can find
Rare,
Like a mermaid's tear
She enriches my life with laughter and joys untold
Her laughter, charming
Brings a newness in me
Reminds me that laughter is the best medicine
That smile,
It's impeccable
Enlightens my dull moments
And makes me live like there's no tomorrow
Her skin, the way it glows from a mile,
She takes care of it, just like she takes care of me
That woman
She has the heart of an angel
It serves love unmeasurable, care, tenderness and protection
She watches my every step
Corrects me when I miss a mark
Commends me every time I'm right
Like the moon,she will be the light I need at night
Like a star, she is the guide I
require all my life
Like a shadow, she will never leave me
And like a butterfly in the field
She flys so high,
Showing me that the best things in life are free
She's the freedom I need
The happiness I deserve
That woman,
I love that woman.

LIKE IT'S MY LAST DAY

Listen, listen to the silence
As the wind whistles loudly
Whispering....
the ghosts of disaster
The gloom and melancholy that has
invaded this empire of freshness
Listen, listen to the silence
The ambiance of the noon and after.

But I don't want this silence

It reminds me of the sleeping and the dead
It reminds of that child that died of cholera
That mother that gave birth in the bush
The little girl that was molested and raped by the man she called father
The sadness of the fear to fail
Wasted talents, crushed dreams
It reminds me of the misplaced priorities
that have been given the forefront
instead of basic simple issues that are easy to implement.
The phantom of corruption, poverty, hunger
marginalization and poor education standards
That have engulfed this humble home

Rather,
I will shout and sing
Shout, sing, dance and jump
Jump over roofs and across fences
Jump from cliff to cliff
Break a leg break a neck
Climb mountains, sail oceans
Sing shout and jump

Scream the names of the ones I love
Forget the pain of the ones I have lost
Sing shout, sing shout and jump
Enjoy this moment like it's my last
For what tomorrow has, I do not know.

I MADE OUT WITH A STRANGER

On the dance floor, that's where it all began
I saw him dance,moving his body in coordination
to a twist
He had strong bicep muscles
I watched him move,I liked
the way he smiled as he danced
His lips curved, into a cute tulip shape
I was compelled and music drove us together
We clicked and rocked the party with the dance styles
He taught me his, I taught him mine then,
maybe it was the booze
But he had really cute eyes and nicely shaped lips
A firm broad chest and he was tall too
His teeth glittered
I watched his lips when he bent to say he liked my dancing
The way he shaped them to a perfect round and
winked at the same time,
I felt a tremor down my lower abdomen
And as if the DJ watched as this transpired he
changed the music to a slow tune
He took me by the shoulder and we danced
to a slow salsa before a tango then
He let me lie on his striking shoulders and
that cologne... smelt like strawberry candy
He kissed me and my legs betrayed me when
they shook as I kissed him back

Then he pushed me to the wall
Without much of a warning
He quietly led me to a corner
away from the eyes of the crowd
and he kissed me again, gently
On my neck as he moved up to my lips he licked
I bit my lip and I let him cup my breasts with his hands
See I was in this provocative tube-top that
explicitly showed my tempting cleavage
It didn't take him long to get to my nipples as
He carefully massaged them at the same time doing my lips with his
I let out an excited moan
Then he lifted me up the wall and lowered my skirt and dug into me
First slowly then... then the heat of the moment went up
I don't remember what happened after
But I found myself in the strange presence of the club's bouncers
and him, nowhere to be seen
I don't even know his name
He didn't even leave his number on my palm
All I know is
I made out with a stranger in the club.

KISS ME

Kiss me,
Make my body shudder in an impulse
Kiss me,
Let my heart melt into an ocean of love
Then we can swim in its ardor
Kiss me,
Make my world stop for a while
Kiss me,
Let's erase the memory of our past
Kiss me,
Let our eyes close to the blissfulness
It's for this moment I have been longing
so make this an indelible one for me
Kiss me,
Do not speak
Do not make a sound
Let these feelings talk
Just let this moment be

Don't ask, don't say, don't mind
Where this will go after
I only want to enjoy this instant
So just kiss me.

Lost Love.

She's young, pretty, sexy and so full of life..
That's why you want her,
right?

I too used to be like that,
remember?
A beautiful smile that glowed,
you said it was hypnotizing.
A fair skin, it was inviting,
your words too..
Full nice lips,
you called them luscious..
And the dark shiny hair that
you ran your fingers through,
all day, all night.

You loved these breasts,
remember?
You said they rose your ego.
This belly, it was flatter than
pancake,
paved way to a curvaceous
behind.
Voluptuous beauty, you called it.
You even bragged to your
friends, they praised,
while your enemies envied..

But where did that love go?

Now that old age has
consumed me?
My skin is all fade and wrinkled.
The luscious lips are now
cracked and rusty.
They excite you no more.
And the hair is now gray,
it has even fallen off, creating
a desert on my head.
'Collapsed breasts' is what you
now call them ,
That are so drooped because
I fed our children,
yes, ours.
And this bulk of fat beneath my
belly, you now call me
old and ugly.

I wonder where your love went.
But go,
Just go, go to her,

She whose face is glowing.
But I remind you she's
also growing.
What will you do,
when old age beckons and she
turns like me?
Will you leave her for another,

A much prettier,sexier and
younger?

WHAT I'M THINKING ABOUT

It's that smile,
That flash of light that comes
out of it that makes the organ
inside my chest to explode into
tiny bits of happiness.
It is that deep voice,
that makes my earlobes open up
every time you talk,
Just so i can listen to you.
You're special.

SHOULD I? SHOULD I NOT?

I want to tell him I love him,
but I am scared of his reaction.

Will he turn over and go back to bed?
Will he stare at me like I
just got from a trip from hell?
Will he turn on his back and mumble
a couple of 'whats' before he slams the door and leaves?
Will he say it's a little too soon?
or,
Will he say he needs sometime to recover from the shock?

It should make him happy shouldn't it?

But it terrifies me how he will reciprocate.

Will he rush out in the streets in the rain
shouting happily for the world to know?
Will he creep to his bathroom,
get all my inner wear, packs them and say
he never wants to see me again?

or,

will he just smile, take me in his arms,
kiss me on the forehead,
and on my cheek,
and on my lips,
look me in the eyes and say:
"I love you too"?

TIDES OF TIME.

So often I
Wonder why
Why I have to wait
for so long
waiting for the hour
Or the day things will
Stop being the way they are
The hour or day you will
declare the truth of your heart
and I Mine.
Sometimes I just want to let it all out
Because it has become
A big a load for me to keep
But when I'm about to
Something holds me back
"wait"
I'm told
And I turn away
and;
once again I
Weep
For I had the chance
But I trampled on it
That is the reason why
I think we are being Tested
Tested by the tides of Time
But until the test is over
And the time is ripe
I will wait
Just stand by me and I by you as we wait
Till then hold tight on the promise of
Friendship we keep
And don't let go
Because you are my Sunlight
My sunshine
And even
The sun itself
I can't afford to lose you.

We Love Each Other

I love you,you love me back
we love each other.
I know she says it's improbable
Because she was there first
But tell her I said it's contingent
Because I'm the one here now
Tell her this for me
I'm not physically a fighter
But my emotions are stronger than steel..
She will not break that
not in a million years
She will not destroy that
not even the strongest dark force will
She was there first
she says
But where was she when I came in?
Out somewhere
spreading her goodies
for Jack,John and Jason..
That's when I came in.
spread mine to
just you and only you
I am here now
when all you have is
your body and brain
I don't care the size of your pocket
as long as I fit in your docket.
I don't mind what model you drive
Lamborghini,
Range
or Hummer
or,
whether you have any at all
Your feet are my perfect kind..
With them I sail to heights above

So she left you for
Collins?
He had it all anyway..
Tell her to stick by him..
For you have not changed,
There's nothing you've gained.
You still can't afford
the luxury she dreams,
But you found a luxury she wasn't.
Tell her you love me
I love you
and we love each other.

I AM NOT THE LITTLE GIRL ANYMORE

I am not that little girl anymore,
The little girl whose heart you consistently broke,
Whose moves you calculated,
Whose mind you constantly manipulated!
Now I'm so much grown,
Now I know how easy I made it for you to control me,
And for that reason,
and thanks to you I realized my weakest points,
Built up ways to find new strength
Now I know how best to
handle your kind,
Your thin dirty game is over now
Forget I was ever your toy
It is a shame I called you my boy
Locked myself into loneliness because of what you put me through,
Shunned all gates that would bring me happiness,
Afraid to get hurt again,
But I'm not the little girl any longer,
In your net I'm out,
Now it's time for me to move on,
Enjoy more and love harder this time..
Only one thing I will expect from you,
To let me move on with my life
Live the bliss you never let me,
Just bliss..
Because with my new found love,
neither you,
nor anyone else will deter me
From being what I want to be
Just to show you how much
a little girl I'm not!

I WANT TO BE... by Nycness Mugira on Saturday, 08 May 2010 at 09:14.

I want to be,the ground on which you step every morning,
the bed that you lie on each night.
I want to be,
the warm sheet that covers you,
when you sleep..
The clothes that you wear,
just to be next to your beautiful soft skin..
I want to be that drop of tear,
that rolls down to your lips,
so that I wouldn't fall down,
but end up in your
mouth,
I wish to be the roof of your house,
That forever watches over you,
day and night,
I want to be the grass you walk on,
soft,
that your tender feet won't get hurt,
I want to be that
strand of hair,
That falls to your face when you least expect,
I want to be the alarm,
that annoyingly wakes you up,
To prepare you for a new day..
I want to be the first ray,
to shine on your face every morning,
I want to be the last piece of meat on your plate,
One that with skill you chew,
and with pleasure
you swallow...
I want to be the walls of your bathroom,
That knows all the secrets,
I want to be whatever the book you read,
that give you insight and inspiration,
I want to be the colorful butterfly in the woods,
That you smile at its beauty,
I want to be the twitch in your left eye,
that forewarns you of any danger,
I want to be the demon in your head,
that drives you to act crazy,
but i also want to be that sweet angel,
that protects from going crazy,
I want to be the character in your dreams,
That is at the beginning,
and never says goodbye,
even when the dream is over,
And yes I want to be
That annoying little
creature,
That is always with you,
When you need me,
and even when you
Don't!
