In A Room With Escape In Mind!
« on: April 10, 2008, 05:30 PM »

In a room
locked in from the outside
an enormous wall seperates me from freedom
i've been made to believe
all my life that nothing was ever impossible

Inside this prison of mine
written words on the walls
from prisoners there before me
i was told no one ever escaped
i could see the writings on the wall

I planned my escape in a painstaking manner
i just had to be free you see
the world awaited me with open arms
i wasn't ready to disappoint her

So one night i reviewed my secret plan
i gathered my tools and set to work
hour after hour i laboured
with only one thought in mind-Freedom!

hands gripping the bars
expending my strength
i long for the stars
and sigh,expelling my breath
my whole body feels like maximum security
i crave fresh air
d freshness & d purity
bt still i remain
a prisoner to my conscience
ma thoughts hold me captive
locked in this inky darkness
i kno the world is waiting
earnestly anticipating
d day i find freedom and return to claim greatness
bt still i rise
slowly from long sleep
Gongo Aso,
i hear d drums speak.

In my mind
locked out from the inside
the mattress is my mistress
the world awaits me on the outside 

A thin line seperates me from my emotions
everyday that i see the sun rays
a thousand messages to me it conveys
memories flood me like the ocean waves


Dark gloomy night
the moon peeking out from subtle clouds
my body a river of sweat in which i drown
toiling minute after minute in the dark
the thought of getting caught weigh me down

If my story be ever told
in the end no matter what way it unfolds
dare i say i' be remembered
as the only one who got away with freedom!

Such freedom
absolute freedom
liberty to crystallize thoughts
as i decree them

The ability to chose
d chains of my slavery
paint images of riches
when money escapes me

The bravery i need 2 be free
so i can be Me
is sealed up inside of my being
bt hw cud this be?

i rage at the elements
strain at my impediments
bruised by d chains
these scars are d evidence

Free! Free at last
free frm d lukewarm
state of my previous existence
I sing a nu song! Cheesy

@Hola2ng
Good lookin,bruva!

bravo brodas bravo, that is great

let me add my to it.

i always like readin your poems hola2ng

All Alone

Lying on my bed, sleeping all alone,
Praying that someday, she will come back home,
Memories of our passion fill every black hole,
Expecting that one day i will surely be made whole,

Staring at the ceilings not far above,
Wishing i could develop wings and fly like a DOVE,
Scanning the whole region for that which i love,
Escaping the big black gate of my tiny cove,

Its a beautiful night, still i can't sleep,
The sounds of footsteps drum around my keep,
In search of treasures hidden from there eyes to strip,
Oh! men our sins surely would we reap,

Morning calls at the sound of the cock crow,
Re leashing  the story that its time to grow,
Pain it brought, as the day started slow,
Then it hit my head with a terrible blow,

That i'm all alone,

hope u wuld like it
