As Long As I Live Poem by Alison Mujati

As long as I live

It creeps from the blue

A feeling seemingly true
Hard to acknowledge despite pages of years, it still haunts

Showing all glow like cinema pictures
Played like in rewind, the cassette does it better
I am dancing to my rhythm, the tune is mine

Shades of mountains closing in as in sundown
Unavoidable nightfall and it takes hours to dawn
Waiting for ceasing that never come
Excruciating pain torments, no one present except for smiling babies

The future cannot be predicted, all prophecies are fake
The least of my desires was to know where life heads from present
If anyone could foretell, now l could be smiling
Maybe floating high above the clouds and opposing gravity
All what-ifs, here alone and sing this ditty- negativity

Not worried about what I eat, everything is audible
I wish the same could be said about life and love
Living a good way and falling for anyone, I couldn't be that man in the mirror
Since it's the total opposite let me just fulfill these days
A man whose past no one ever misses

As long as the sun rises and set,
With my mind always reminiscing,
The past will forever haunt.
Luck you who plays no significance in it
Blessed is a builder of a house that he never stays into
Your case might be in vain but past action changed lives
