yvonne selase nyahe Poems

because of you
i have regained my strength
my pride, my self esteem
because of you
...

life is a mystery that sits unraveled
leaving men with questions of how and why
making us hopeless and failures
as we wonder in confusion
...

like a shadow beside me
you were there through thick and thin
held my hand and kept me save
in times of despair and grief
...

at night when all go to sleep
i sit by the window
too afraid to close my eyes
i dont want to imagine her in your arms
...

o, master let me walk with you
through the fields of thorn and prey
through the rivers and the snow
close to yours may my feet throd
...

out of the blue...whooom
power cut
darkness eats up the room
hot air attacks my flushed skin
...

remember me when you find another
i am forever gone but my spirit remains with you
everytime you hold her hand
think of our lonely walks in the park
...

the drums came echoing
in the stillness of the early morning
babies lay sleeping soundly
innocently nuzzling their mother, s breasts
...

if i were a tear drop
i, ll softly caress your cheeks
kiss your fears away
and then slowly
...

we come to you
bearing gifts of oil and saphire
to make a sacrifice at your feet
we come as humble servants
...
