Realities and Fictions: A POEM




Can i write from heart?

Speaking the rhythms of my heart through the movement of my hand on a plain sheet

I am taking time to draw my emotions with words on this plan sheet

 Sometimes I just want to remain quiet, other times I need vibes around me to give sound to the silence within.


In other to resist the temptation of letting my crowded thought burst out as a flow of salty liquid, i will rather write.


Can they really see through the oblique show I present outwardly?

Trying to box in the confusion within, while I present an artificial grin outside so I tell them:

"All is well' when they ask me; "whats up with you bro?"

'Everyone has their own struggle' some may say but some times, its feels like mehn!...

a bittersweet experience altogether more like an irony, I think, more like hoping for the best while expecting the worse

A beautiful blend of good-evil balance, it all just sounds like pro-fallen Eden.

We are all quick to let our guards down, to surrender to the emotional captivity a fairy tale presents Always thinking it will all be smooth ;

You meet that lovely person, fall in love, you have a good life with kids running around as you walk beside a gentle tide at the beach, holding hands as the sunsets.

Fantasies, living a dream in the reality of your thoughts a build up from a continuous intake of Disney lies

more like thinking this is ME lies , I mean my lies.

 We often spend a lot of time wondering how we can make Disneyland a reality and we find ourselves lost in wonderland trying to navigate our way back into the reality.

I say to myself, like a polar bear, ‘wake from your slumber!' winter is long gone and now its summer’

Go and face life with a real grip of reality, holding firm to what is real

No fear of what is ahead, a couple of pot holes as I drift through the highway called life, I’ve got only one destination

 So this one is for all those who feel a weight of discouragement overwhelming them Thoughts of:

‘You can’t do it’ all over you like a gloomy cloud

You don’t need to seek refuge and fulfilment in false realities

You also don’t have to plunge into the pool of despair, look up, take that step, dream, desire and above all look onto God cos only him can make a divine Disneyland a reality in his abode ZIONLAND!
