Preston Mwiinga

When I got you, you were that village girl who was so beautiful though naive in your ways of life.
I was ready to love you because you were my parents best choice for me.
The more time I spent with you, My love grew like a tree planted in a fertile land.
I bathed you with treated water and and put ointments on you. I clothed you with an embroidered dress written on it, ‘I stole your heart' and put sandals of fine leather on you.
...

Ine skiny yanga niija ya black,
Sisi zanga niza black.
Elo namansapato yanga naeve niya black.
But I am so proud to be born of a black skin.
...

My life has become like the theater, Lusaka play house. Where you take me for Bob mkosha.
My activities are that of public interest busy watching them like you are watching a new movie on the big screen at fresh-view cinema and eating popcorn navima freezit vo dula.
On twitter I have few followers but in reality so many.
You have forgotten all those important tasks you have just to study my life.
...

I am loving the best, and I am proud.
I may delay in telling you I love you,
I may delay in publicizing our love on the social media.
Your friends may think i do not better plans for you.
...

The words of my mother echoed in my ears reminding me of the how cruel the world can be if you allow some women to use you.
She said to me,
'Mwana wandi Kuli Delaila! Iwe walalila kwati wa baela when she milks the Naira from you.'

He knew that rest lay somewhere up ahead,
but he could never quite reach it. The story of his life brings us face to face with a man burdened with an incredible mission.
Environmentalists talk about saving species from extinction,
but for Noah it was more than the talk.
...

The day lelo has come,
Vaushimbe ine vasila kabili lelo nakwitila.
Namupeza mukazi wapanyumba and I call my running mate.
Day yanga yachikwati, nalemba yachizungu ija diary come on everyone celebrate with me because today is my happy day.
...

Each and every moment I walk in fear because I do not know who will take away my life.
It is not like I am a fugitive No! But because I am an albino,
Some do not even want to seat next to me,
Eating with me is like they are feeding on vomit,
...

Black is beautiful and I am proud to be born black. It has the chocklet. Chocklate is sweet no wonder everyone likes it, so is my skin color. Proud to be born black.
Black is not cursed, God is God of all of us, he loves the black skin just like he loves the one skin, because of this I will not be intimidated about my skin color because black is beautiful.
Black is beautiful because it is a symbol of strength seen from the hardworking miners at chambeshi mines, or as strong as an Africa woman carrying a calabash on her head. Being black is my pride and this I will not hide as I ride on the fertile land of the blacks, black is beautiful.
...

I am an African born in Africa, I am not a South African
But I`m black; my skin is the same as yours and I rise and proudly say black is beautiful and we share this beautiful chocolate color, we are all Africans.
When the cries were so hard in South Africa before getting Independence, as Africans we united to free south Africa
When your leaders were beaten by whites we gave them shelter, protection, food and the hope that indeed freedom is coming tomorrow.
...

Africa my mother,
Africa my father,
Africa land of my brothers and
sisters,
...

Your heart is in pain, you think she is cheating on you.
You have analyzed so much and come to a conclusion that
she is not faithful to you. This development has made you
sick and so paralyzed.
...

Her voice is silenced, her dreams shattered,
Her future stolen, her spirit battered.
They see her as a commodity, a means to an end,
But she's more than that, she's a human being, a friend.
...

Your heart is filed with pain and sorrow
You heart is in pain, troubled with the physical pain
Hope is twisted as others have told you it is impossible.
You are filled with hate and blame.
...

This is a story of a beautiful woman,
not written in story books,
not acted in movies,
not just a story told
...

Her future once shone bright, a dream she held so tight,
To be a doctor, saving lives with all her might.
But then you came, a shadow in her way,
Turning her into someone dark, wanting to destroy and sway.
...

My physical disabilities has led me to my emotional paralysis and I'm left without a solution but just to complain.
Is it a sin for me to fall in love does love chose individuals.
I am human like any other human being.
I can be romantic even more romantic than people without disability.
...

Your body is like a treasure, learn to wrap it well for survival.
You rush then you will crush.
Young lady listen to me, there is one thing I want you to understand about we men!
Posting half-naked pictures of yourself on Facebook, be it you doing a sexy pose, or showing
...

You wake up thinking you can treat God as your cousin
You think you can play tribal games with him.
You treat his temple so careless and has no respect for his word
God is not your cousin but he is God.
...

I present your daughter in law to you my parents.
I come to seek your blessings my parents.
When I receive them then I will surely be comfortable that i am very safe.
But when you fail to accept her, I will have a heartache but if she does not meet your expectations, I will understand your reasons because I know that you want the best for me.
