Christen Kuikoua Poems

Day by day
Night by night
I find myself loving you more and more
Every song I sing,
...

O heart! Why must you lay your love so bare?
To share your heart and soul with one so dear?

I thought that I was strong enough
...

In the depths of my soul, I beg forgiveness,
For I know not the extent of the hurt I caused,
My apologies falter, mere whispers in the wind,
Yet, I bear them with sincerity, with a heart that bleeds.
...

In the sacred silence of this moment,
I kneel before you, my Lord,
burdened by the weight of my transgressions.
My soul trembles, confessing
...

I admit I'm not the best,
Was never the best, put to the test.
In my head, I strive to be the best,
Lack confidence, yet dress so blessed.
...

Embrace your insecurities with grace,
Yet, don't let them dictate your pace.
They're shadows that may come and go,
But never allow them to diminish your glow.
...

In a world where beauty's confined,
To a frame, a shape, so pre-defined.
I refuse to bow to discrimination's hand,
Refusing to let it define me.
...

In this moment, I stand tall,
Grateful for each rise and fall.
Life's journey, a gift to unwrap,
A joyous clap, life beautifully sews.
...

Mother, for you, these lines I pen,
Oh, dear, my first love, now and then.
Mother, you know me, inseparable we,
And thus, I share what the world should see.
...

In a world where satan wear a crown,
A force greater than darkness, deep within is found.
Some hail Him Jesus, the Christ divine,
Others utter Adonai, or Yaweh's name entwined.
...
