Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

Life


Life's many struggles
Are the gratitude of my ways
Life's many hurdles
Are what brings me here today


Tears I've cried
Sleepless nights
Days of hopeless pain


Endless lies
Countless goodbyes
Are the tar to which my road is paved


Locked doors
Bruised heart
I'm scared my time has come


Unspoken words
Silent cries
Have made me who I have become.
