Maureen Nanjala Poems
A ring upon the finger, A smile for all to see, A shared name,
A house adorned with roses, And bars no one can see.
The walls are painted golden,
...
Its so complicated
Ever since i was born
Everybody lives to fight against
Just to hope one day we win
...
All i pined for was a shoulder to lean on
All i knelt for was a friend to count on
Was i scraping the bottom of the barrel?
We got closer and how i lost in your world
...
She knew it was time
Time to hold a new tittle
She always prayed for this day
That she could scream from pain
...
On the front porch, relaxing old man in a rocking chair
I apperceive its finally dusk
Twilight drops her curtains down,
To embrace a beautiful constellation of stars
...
At 25 on knees,
A wish you conformed, holding a ring
Time never stands still
No other I'd rather be with
...
People are like seasons…
Some arrive like summer,
warm enough to make you believe they were meant to stay.

The Best Poem Of Maureen Nanjala
Marriage; A Decorated Prison
A ring upon the finger, A smile for all to see, A shared name,
A house adorned with roses, And bars no one can see.
The walls are painted golden,
The vows are dressed in white,
The cage is beautifully furnished, Yet still, a cage at night.
They call it love, They call it forever,
They call the chains commitment, But sometimes even the prettiest prisons,
Are prisons nonetheless.
Those within its walls dream of escape.
Those beyond its gates dream of entry.
The prisoners envy the free,
The free envy the warmth within
Everyone wants what they don't have
And perhaps that is the cruelest irony.
