In the realm of strength, we contemplate,
A trait that molds us, makes us great.
To be strong holds a weight so grand,
A journey that few truly understand.

Being strong requires a resolute spirit,
Guided by values, not quick to inherit.
For strength is born through adversity's test,
Forged in the fires of life's toughest quest.

With each challenge faced, body and mind,
Resilience is nurtured, toughness defined.
Yet, strength extends beyond physical walls,
It encompasses the depth of character's calls.

To be strong is to find courage deep within,
To rise above chaos, never allowing to give in.
It demands the will to persevere,
Even when obstacles attempt to smear.

Being strong means owning oneself,
Taking responsibility, seeking inner wealth.
It means embracing vulnerability, not fearing the fall,
Finding grace amid life's unpredictable sprawl.

Strength compels us to stand up tall,
To face the battles that we must install.
It requires self-discipline, unwavering drive,
A commitment to thrive and truly survive.

In times of doubt, strength offers solace,
A guiding force, an unwavering promise.
It generates hope in the face of despair,
Inspiring others to match its noble

In moonlit nights, when darkness falls so deep
Whispers of secrets, a secret they keep
A bandit's tale, an outlaw's creed
Of stolen riches and daring deeds

In shadows cast upon the land
A surreptitious, cunning band
They strike with swiftness, silent as a breeze
Leaving victims helpless, begging on their knees

With masks adorned, identities unknown
They roam free, on paths they've sown
Their footsteps evade capture, as they traverse
Leaving no trace, their actions diverse.

Their eyes gleam with mischief, their hearts so bold
Their pockets full of treasures, stories untold
They take what they please, without remorse
Their freedom the only driving force

But in this life of chaos and disguise
The bandits know not where their fate lies
For justice may come, with vengeance abound
And in the end, their empire crumbles to the ground

So let this tale be a lesson, clear and true
That banditry's thrill, cannot last through
The path of righteousness, it beckons bright
Choose wisely, dear souls, before it's too late in the night.

This raging fury
Is as bad as any kind of hellfire
Hell has no fury compared to a woman who’s scorned
How will insulting a woman impact you
It’s so bad, I can’t bear it anymore
I loved you for real
Loved you even beyond the parameters of love
Now all i feel for you is limitless hatred

-

Everyday, I guarantee
To show up for you
Regardless of how awful the excursion gets
You will track down me close to you
For, you're my paradise on the planet
The air I breath
At the point when I embrace you
I transit love
For you're my heavenly soul

-

Every morning
I look outside my window, with my cup of espresso
Partaking in the cold climate
Paying attention to the tunes of adoration
With drums of feelings
Inside me I can feel you
Thumping
With the sound of a clock
Ding dong
I can feel your unpretentious touch
Your brilliant grin
I sip your love
Just like I taste my espresso
You're in me and am in you

-

On that heinous night you shrouded me off my dignity and ruptured My whole life
I bleed like watermelon
despite the tears rolling down my cheeks you keep on riding on me because you're a filth

A part of me has been torn apart


i was so helpless as I watched My dignity taken away

whenever he feels a thirst, I was his prey to quench his thirst
I can still feel his dirty hands penetrating through my poor skin

the hours you spent strumming me will not make you a macho man

No matter how many times I bath I still stinks
is the season of hunger where dogs eat their own
His words are ruthless and cruel

Why did you choose me to satisfy your deadly lust
Because I was born with a vagina or because I have legs with a space between them

You deserve to die and your body devoured by animals
pieces of me are still lying on the floor
Tell me what to do
should I disperse them to the winds of insouciance or will you keep them safe for me in your heart

Even the words slices my tongue each time I try to talk
Now I speak, for I'm done being weak
stop invading my privacy
Don't touch me
No Means No

-

I've been subjugated
I have hidden scars behind this beautiful face
people just rushing without staring a glance
I hid every inch of those scars that no plaster can amend them
My body shivering with my throat choked
The words slices my tongue each time I try to speak
Am confused, unbalanced and scared
I was naive to believe people are good that equality was everywhere
Didn't know it was rare
As we're choked and drowned by man-made torment
I don't need alcohol to get me in the mood
I've a mother who never doubt my ambition and talent
Am not a toy that you can play with
Am kissing the sidelines goodbye
I've a mouth that can build oceans and a pen that will stop gender based violence
Don't underestimate me
I am a woman, am enough with alot of layers and personality
I won't let the words consume me like a tidal wave smashing me into pieces
I will stretch my wings and fly high just like an eagle
No matter what you say about me I Know am one of a kind
Am divine

-

Why do I see you in my dreams
You're not mine yesterday neither will you be tomorrow
But you're all I pray for
All my loyalties belongs to you alone
I don't know where the breeze is taking you
I've become use to having you around
All those sweet memories keeps flashing through my eyes
I wish I can still hug and touch you
I pray that one day you will be mine

Feeling out of place like a weed in a garden
people stare at my skin like its strange and roiled
Feeling nettled from the constant teasing
Am being seen like an outcast
My black skin is my heritage
Don't mistake it for weakness
I'm rare because you can't easily pick me in the crowd
Am a beauty sourced from the African soil
I stand proud and cherish my skintone
I am not embarrassed by my skin color, for I'm human like anyone else
I adorn myself with strength
my skin is smooth and glow like sunshine
My skin color oozes confidence
My wide smile is filled with fondness and lovingness
My eyes twinkled with amusement
Being an African isn't a crime but a blessing and I stand true to my etymon
Whenever I look at myself in the mirror all I see is the true African beauty
My skin isn't a challenge
I won't be disheartened by their critics
For I inhale courage and bravery
I get judged by the melanin I carry
I will go out there and embrace my melanin
For my skintone is a different kind of beauty

I get judged because I do not fits the norm of white skin, blonde hair and colored eyes

For I carry the Gene's of my fore father's from generations to generations
