Damian Semwayo The pain cuts deeper, more than it should,Her love, sincere and open, misunderstood.What was she to sacrifice, to let go,Only to find heartbreak, a tragic blow? Sometimes, hope lingers far too long,Leaving us shattered, clinging on,Dying for a cause, lost deep within,A sacrifice made, an emotional anthem. In love’s name, she gave herContinue reading “Love’s Irony”

Faith of man
Damian Semwayo The faith of man, unyielding and strong,From my origins, where history’s wrong.Enslaved people of my color, bound by chains,In God’s name, a paradox that remains. Blinded by beliefs, confinements of the mind,With shattered morals, they were designed.But even now, I glimpse into their hearts,Still blinded and stuck, unable to restart. Rehabilitation, a challengingContinue reading “Faith of man”
Attraction’s Rhythm.
Attraction’s RhythmDamian Semwayo Her message comes, just as I heal,Longing for my touch, she can’t conceal.Her face aglow, her thigh in sight,I’m allowed into her forever night. But wait, my love, let’s clear the fog,Why do you like to see my heart stained red?Countless scars you’ve implemented,Like numbers learned when we were kids. Yet still,Continue reading “Attraction’s Rhythm.”
Talk Up.
Talk UpDamian Semwayo Today may have started anew,But yesterday still lingers like a dewDo I pay homage to the past I’ve had,Or do I move forward without turning back? Misfortunes of the yesteryear,Taunt me with their familiarity nearI wish I could forget the pain,And focus on the good before it wanes But memories, both goodContinue reading “Talk Up.”
Confessions
In life, we’re faced with choices more than a few,Choosing wisely is what will see us through. Will we go to school and chase our dreams,Or will we surrender, losing our purpose it seems? Will we choose poetry and let our emotions flow,Crying and living, basking in its ebb and flow? Or will we chooseContinue reading “Confessions”
No Notifications.
The pain that we feel deep insideIs what keeps us unifiedIt brings us both joy and sorrowAnd leads us to thoughts of tomorrow Should we choose to departWe’ll lose the joy along with the hurtBut if we stay and weather the painPerhaps we’ll find sunshine after the rain Our path can lead us to freedomYet,Continue reading “No Notifications.”
Lowlier
But alas, it seems we’re not meant to be, no matter how much we want to see.Our love is like a rose, beautiful but with thorns that impose.We can’t ignore the reality, that we’re not each other’s destiny.It hurts to let go, but it’s better than holding onto something that won’t grow.So let’s cherish theContinue reading “Lowlier”
Love this, Love that. UGH!
We once grasped love,Watched it bloom and inflate,Inside the vocals of an angel,Inspiring and rejuvenating. But now the shackles weigh heavy,Keeping my mind unsorted,“Memoryless of you”,Has turned into my deepest fear.How can I turn down a euphoric reminiscence,When it started as a flame,Ended as a dying ember,Leaving a scar on my heart,And a newly mendedContinue reading “Love this, Love that. UGH!”
Love is A Game.
I used to think love was such a boreA leech on life, a bothersome choreBut you came, and that all changedWith you, my perspective was rearranged When you shiver in my arms, I feel completeYour words to me, they are oh so sweetI find you cute, when you look awayAnd when I see your eyes,Continue reading “Love is A Game.”
Paradox of Death
We’re all in this world together,Unavoidable fate we all share.Sometimes it feels like destiny’s hand,Knocking at our door, always there. A sensation lingers within,For years this feeling persists,Can death be menacing or grim,When it’s promised to all like this? Time, oh how it flows,Through every vein in our being.But for you, Death, it goes slow,DueContinue reading “Paradox of Death”
