Future Daughter (The Raconteur)



I heard Bruce Willis say;
"God gives us children so we can have roses in December".
But I know with you, he'll give me a garden full.
That's a bounty for the bountiful,

From a birds eye view,
I'll watch you grow into a Wonder Woman,
One that knows how to mend a broken heart but often times take charge of situations.
I'll groom you up into an African woman,
You'll have a strange name that holds earthly meanings of your root, your culture and tribe.
When people laugh at your own,
Sing cheers of Hallelujah because they only mock the continuity of life.

I'll have men chase unicorns then feel butterflies in their stomach, 
Before they can even come close to tasting your sweetness, sweetness.
Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna,
I have a sense of eunoia writing this because I know you hold an allure,
I'll breed you into Psalm 31, 
So virtuousness will be the order of your day.
I know you'll be a logophile,
I pray you don't become an eccedentesiast,
Whenever you feel down, always know daddy got you and you're his little girl,
He'd always look after his own.

I sure do know I'll teach you the importance of family,
After God nothing comes close to that.
It starts and ends in your heart.
After running and walking,
Always remember home is where the heart is and it consist of family,
Those that possess loyalty likened to that of a dog to its master.

I expect you to have bad days,
I'll never tell you life is rosy,
I'll never tell you not to cry,
Because it's only a reminder you're alive and going through life.
After it all,
After your journey of life,
Always remember,
We all,
Need love.
And I hope you'll never be too tired to cry,
And too alive to die,
Reginae Maliaka Friday.

1AM

It's 1AM, As I think back 5 hours ago, Watching grown folks indulge in the idea of marriage. Such a beautiful thing when its true essence is given, However the case, The reverse isn't the same. I felt like a bird on a mountain top,   Looking down with a vision of that of an eagle trying to see what I can get from it. I listened as they rambled about adult jokes. A soothsayer wasn't needed as the drift in class could be told.   The song on the radio is sung along by a wife, With lyrics that seem to shred fragments of the heart. A beautiful voice but with emotion and pain littered around it. The rest said their good nights to their spouse over the phone. Standing over on my balcony as the clock is 17 minutes away from hitting 1AM, Lonely as hell, But somehow I find confidence and comfort when I seldom let my thoughts run loose, Days when they are controlled, I seem to run low on the double C. My heart seems like an uncaged beas...

Gran Torino (The Raconteur)

Gran Torino I wrote a letter to the sky, in the middle of the night, Sailing from euphoria to your heart. A beautiful destination, Never seen a place like this. Stranger now,   But someday I'll make this heart mine. I could make this heart my safe haven. Do you own this heart? I mean can you let me make a claim of your heart? I'm a mess currently, Scared to see something beautiful when I'm a mess, Cause I feel it's the right thing at the wrong time, So I consume my darkness and let your heart be my city of light. The spring boulevard, Springs me down a city of light. Like a knight, I’m your shinning amour, Shinning ever-brighter, Tranquil to serenade thy mind, A visionary to the ordinary. I'll travel to the moon and set you apart from the stars, Let me gaze at you in the beauty of the night, Travel through your galaxy and milk on your Milky Way. A shooting star at night but a treasure by day, Nothing phy...

The Curse Of The Giver.

Colour me the wind, Let me be felt on your succulent skin. The dawn of the full moon, I cry out to you like a she-wolf, Somewhere in the closet of my heart. The season of my youth, Surely feels the hardest, But with guidance definitely going to be easy. The people of my people, Exceeds not the people's people. Like an eagle, Take flight, with my 20/20 vision see the world. In my grasp is what is needed by my people, the people and I. The curse of the giver, It's about the ability to reach in, In other to reach out. I follow the blueprint of my Grandmother. And like I was told, Kill the boy, to groom the Man, Hoping someday my dreams rescues me, As I don't become a stranger to my dreams. My purpose on earth has now become my curse. This is The Curse Of The Giver.
