King Njoroge Poems

I see you, everyday
You are killing me, sad thoughts
Act like I'm invisible just to stare
Those eyes, wildly beautiful
...

I try to escape
From what I'm yet to see
Always on the run
Is it emotions I'm terrified of?
...

In my head again
Like it was not enough
Enough the last time
I don't know, maybe
...

This girl, this perfect bundle of beauty
I can't help staring each time she walks into a room
I am smitten
Her brown eyes leave me in a trance
...

I've been carrying this weight around for far too long
I think I deserve a break
Take sometime to rest
At least catch my breath
...

Everybody's chasing after life
Honey, why don't we do this anymore?
Why didn't life work out like it was supposed to?
Why do I keep getting older yet there is zero progress?
...

Back to the drawing board
So frustrating, every single time
When you can't get it right
No matter how many times you try
...

How long will I stay on this ledge?
I wish I could just jump off
Keep falling in the pit of no return
Watching helplessly as life gets sucked out of me
...

This is my nation behind me
I built this
I own these flock
I control the thoughts
...

I just want you to know,
Wherever you may go,
Whatever you may be doing,
Whoever you are with,
...
