Kayanja Ronald Edwin Poems

Wisdom a lost treasure of the past
Smartness the new trickery of the present
Leaving the future so blind and unknown
...

Always loved the color grey
A composition of black and white
Clearly illustrating humanity
A blur of evil and good
...

Sad eyes wink in the dark,
Frozen hair masking his face
The lines of grey,
Around his chin to the temples,
...

And the distance between,
Kept their bodies apart
But not their hearts
Wondering,
...

Above, the clouds moved
A ghost shadow below
Closing in so quick, death
Swallowing souls as it swept
...

Long chains cutting deep,
In both my wrists and ankles
I watch my flesh decay,
Falling off, feeding my only friend,
...

In a room so dark,
And the chains so heavy,
but yet a smile so big
One smells freedom
...
