Charles Wamuti Poems

Somebody misses your smile,
The hugs and love you share,
The warmth in your heart,
The love in your eyes,
...

A ride outstanding it was among others,
Long enough but seemingly just a second,
Many ordinary people around me save for a special one,
You made it just like the two of us in the whole world.
...

I’m scared you will leave,
I’m scared I’m going to be lonely,
I’m scared to lose you,
I’m scared my heart will be empty.
...

Everyone is searching for something,
They travel east to west in zeal,
They hunt as if looking for treasure,
Deep down the jungle they scan,
...

They all compete for a seat
Parliamentary, governor, and even presidential,
They lie that every home I will visit,
That even the poor have the potential,
...

Its days like this,
That I wanna fall on my knees,
And tell you what are my pleas -
Love for you I have that can’t cease,
...

Sometimes I know,
Sometimes I think I know,
Sometimes I’m sad,
Sometimes I’m glad,
...

Butterfly butterfly, fly high to the sky,
Let everyone see how beautiful you are,
Among thousands you stand out, why lie,
Flutter those wings till everyone says “Wah”!
...

Fourteenth of February may be gone,
But why should only one day be meant special?
What if every day was like the day you were born,
Magnificent yet so exceptional!
...

I don’t want to be just a memory,
I want to be your future,
I don’t want to be remembered,
I want to be with you.
...
