Tapiwa Individualist

If God is imaginary,
Then He is by far the greatest and most realistic figment of imagination,
If God is imaginary,
Why can i see a touch of supernatural power on every beautiful scenery
If God is imaginary,
Why does my heart get calm when i have that little conversation in my heart with my Heavenly Father?
If God is imaginary,
Why has my mind searched for truth and still found itself in Him?
If God is imaginary,
Why is there such a deep need to search His existence?
If God is imaginary,
Why can't one who doesn't believe in Him just brush off the idea of his existence and not strive to prove He doesn't exist?
Well if God was imaginary, this whole earth would be imaginary.

God is real.

Farewell, brother

The crisp air of summer,
blew the kite up high

He cut the string
and whispered a goodbye

‘you are now free’

the tears trickled
until it was out of sight

‘there is a way to be good again’. I really love the Kite Runner. I’m imagining the protagonist, Amir, saying goodbye to his past unatoned sins. Grateful, as he bid farewell to his brother, Hassan. (they are both free rather)

Forget about
tomorrow.

All that you have
is the sweet sweltering
summer night,

one moment
right now.

A place to call home

feel the wind whistle
down the tenebrous sky
come to carry away
my silenced heart

hold dear the love
you see through
    my dried  tears —
before  the  glint
doth  fade

lay me down alone,
my dearest friend,
eyes  to  the  sky
   neath the lone oak tree —
atop the meadow hill

where a lonely child
climbed gnarled rungs
in hope to sail away
on fleeting cotton clouds;
dreaming of a place
in the distant sky
to  call  home

Thanks for reading — Jesse

Moth

I am just a moth
In a world of butterflies
Nonetheless, I fly.

A beacon

The wick was primed, lit and trimmed regular like
the steadfast held on to the faint light of hope
if not for thier all
but all others
they shielded it from the wind
and the rain
and fed it with love and devotion
so it burned steady,
bright but not glaring
and they had to look hard
but all who searched
found it
Then lit their own wicks
primed and trimmed regular like
and just like that
it grew
and love happened
And they became free
because they could finally
see.

Hope is a collective

War Is War

You’ve said
that you’re against
all wars
but yet you allow
your mind
to remain in darkness
depressingly
fighting a war within
yourself
I must
remind you
A Rose is a Rose
Love is Love
Just like
War is War

WAR
IS
WAR
MY FRIEND

It’s time to decide
what you’re going to do
with what’s happened
to you
Happiness doesn’t
come to you
It comes from you
It’s time to create
an environment
conducive to joy

WAR
IS
WAR

PERIOD!

WAR IS WAR NO MATTER HOW SMALL..
Life is fragile and fleeting, Live Well , Love yourself!

That’s the message!

The Silent Catastrophe

Success/Failure

In the midst of it all
I stop, I stare
And I wonder what I'm doing in all this
The aches never cease, never stop

Them all I see writhing about me; humans
Clamber above one another
Leaving the ones they claim to love broken
In the ashen dirt

For the meagre prizes they salivate to get

They forget they can't take it with them
That their greed is for naught
As their breaths draw short, scythe draws closer
Leaving them alone in their suffocating solace.
