Deception & Deceit!

In Her Thoughts: Deception & Deceit!

She called my name out, I give up;
Tears flooded in her eyes;
They say eyes can't lie, the pain and sorrow pierced at the edge of her eyes;
Out of them, tears of regret, pain, and questions;
Why me? She asked all she wanted is to give her son the life she never had;
The serpent had deceived her to eat the apple of trust;
She roared lies and deception, words of betrayal beautifully crafted for destruction.

It's always the ones close to you that walks you to your grave;
They prepare your death-bed, shade crocodile tears - happy riddance tears and pretend sad - while their hearts itch with joy;
They thrive on pain, their thirst runs deep;
Torn apart, at the edge of life and death;
She was ready to let go into the dark swirling hole;
She was ready to throw the towel in;
She called out my name, I give up she said;
The tremble in her voice was a sombre beat of helplessness;
Sadness overwhelmed her soul.

Only if I knew, only if I had texted her more; only if I had told her often I love her. Only if!
Time runs out, don't wait till it's too late.
Check up on your friends, family, neighbors, workmates, and partners.
Ask them often how they are?  If they need a shoulder? If they need you to just listen?

Framed Generation!

Judge: You being charged with counts of lazyness, entitlement, changing jobs like shoes, adrenaline filled junkies and a generation of no hope. How do you plead? Plea : Thank you your Honour for this opportunity. Firstly I feel like we surrounded by a glitter border; Looks good from the outside looking in, but all it is confinement in our thinking, ideas and entire existence; Of rules and expectations passed on from generation to generation; Stick to the know, a yearn for more is rebellion; A generation framed by our forefathers; constantly paying for their sins; Where corruption, violation of freedom of speech, graduates begging by the roadside and violation of human rights have been normalised; A curse of through painful toil we eat food from it the rest of our lives. Hands to mouth, hands to mouth, a routine we've only known; They ate the sour fruits, played with fire, gorged into our trust funds only for us to be called lazy and free spirits. Millenni

#Signs It Is Time For You To Be Courageous & Take What You Want

📷 Jonathan Daniels "You can get in life what you have courage to ask for " - Oprah Winfrey When it comes to life don’t be humble and meek, take on whatever life gives you. There is a better way to take on life, that is, to be specific about what you want. As our Shona idiom goes, “Mwana asinga cheme anofira mumbereko” which simply translates to, “You only get what you have the courage to ask for.” It is the only en route to success and getting what you want. It costs zero dollars to take charge of your life, be assertive – combine your confidence with control. Trust me it is like a magnet to get attention, a step forward to getting what you want. Growing up I was a reserved and quiet person. Never asked for anything or complained. It was rooted in me and my way of life. Up until I realized that if I don’t ask for much I won’t get much. Your soul and mind will give precisely what you unconsciously tell it, nothing more or nothing less. Being a considerate soun

Be Straight Up With Me Or Walk!

📸the.photographer.official Have you ever met people who are just not truthful? From the smallest things, like what’s your plan really? Even the simplest question like, what do you do for fun? I don’t know whether it’s the need to impress or insecurity that my answer won’t measure up to the next person’s expectations? At first, it gave me chills, not the warm fuzzy goosebumps but the cringe that literally gives one an upset stomach. I was filled with so many questions, still is, and the reason why I’m writing about it. My mind screams, my face frowns and my whole being escapes me, I can’t handle hearing people deprive themselves of their true self. What for? Is it really worth it? Many things are avoidable. Literally everything, everyone has a privilege of choice. This is what it’s like every time everyone chose to lie and not be straight up. This is what it’s like living with lies on your tongue, it’s a choice. It all comes down to choice or it's the demons one is battling with
