Voices In Me Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

I speak languages unknown
Where words are pearls to be admired
Gems made of everlasting passion
Sparkling in an eternal flow of love
Words are nutrients to my soul
Breaking down barriers
Allowing the light to shine
Words are tears
Expressing the deepest pain
Words are clay
To be moulded into bricks of love
Words are full of kindness

I speak in rivers of ink
Sparkling along the valleys of my imagination
I speak life
To the hopeless kind
Whose sorrow has burrowed deep holes of despair
I speak in my silence
Comforting the fearful
With my unspoken words
I reach deep into the heart
Cultivating hope
Planting love
