Don Bukana Poems

I tried so hard to be your perfect child
but in your eyes I turned out wild
Yeah, sometimes I did lie
but Mom, I really did try
...

A young boy from my neighborhood came to me the other day. he was near hysteria
he said, big bro jamb just came out and i have failed woefully my parents don't know of this yet
and i really don't Know what to do, I'm confused
i did my possible best i prayed and fasted for days waiting on God i attended lessons and i prepared well for this exam

1st year(In university)
I was sitting in the lecture room, looking at that girl sitting next to me. She was my ‘best friend'. She had nice hair, humble and was very beautiful. I wish I could tell her that I loved her so much, but I didn't want to break the bond. After lectures, she walked to me, borrowed some notes of the previous class hugged and pecked me goodbye.
I wish I told her, I wish she knew
That I wanted us to be more than just friends
...

I'm so tried of this Dark world
I want to kill myself
I want to commit suicide
Leave me bro let me end my life.

Being a father brings daily struggles into our lives.

A FATHER'S STRUGGLES
...

Don't let it fool you
This smile isn't the real me
I don't understand why you don't care
I was once everything you wanted me to be
...

If I had the power Life would seem too easy
Beggars would have luxurious homes
With the power Success would be easy
With the power I would have expensive car
