Marvis Ayebor Poems

Dark bold colour said to be rejected by others
One love and strong bond her soldiers guiding her border
Others of same father first to cast her a stone she doesn't bother
...

Days are numbered
Should we be fine or sad?
Memories won't live for long
Only legacy talks forever
...

Her sexiness is her intelligence, like an illiterate pen
Her curves like a zig zag line drawn from a straight point
Her emotions hard to form but easy cracked like an egg shell
Her tears like a dry river in winter 'oh yeah.
...

Woke up and found myself in a world of my own
No shelter, father no mother no lover of my soul
No sand, bed, wood, iron or stones
No roses, money, silver, diamond or gold
...

I go talk

You say I be lazy youth, you say make I go work
But you no allow me rest for east, west, south and even north
...

What is seen is a picture,
Beautiful art and designs of creature;
Yet what is viewed are words,
Spoken out loud hand writing of the walls.
...

If this is what love is then I have to go,
I thought about it lately and it's like killing six birds with one stone;
Pain and lies, like hot and cold'
Hurtful laughter's like stage one cancer and one can't even seem to know.
...

I think the little blue pen has something to say.
Final decisions reached without consulting the brain,
'I'll see to that later' said and walked away;
Thereafter comes tears of regret accompanied with pain.
...

Oh mother!
Holidays, you worked
Tough times, you loved
On rough roads, barefooted you walked
...

Though times, our biggest obstacle
Influenced by critics of our emotions
Arrested and dumped in the bin of our truthful lies
It's just me and you, why do we lie?
...
