TILL THEN AGAIN

At last it's winter time, yes it is,
Now that the animals migrate,
Back to their habitats,
Once again, we're together,
In our cottage, around the fire,
How I longed for it,
After our last departure,
To seek for our future.

During the spring morning,
When the birds sang,
And dingdong rang the church bells,
I longed to hear your voice,
But pitpat the rain drops,
Splash! the soil responds,
This reminds me of our race,
Up and down for mama' hot pies.

During the autumn evenings,
Watching the last sunrays beam,
Dry corns swaying to and fro,
Imagining playing hide and seek,
But alas! I was chasing the wind,
Wish you were around,
Hope the wind understands and
Tickles your ears for my presence.

During the summer nights,
The stars twinkle like your eyes,
Seebreeze whispering your name,
When we told bed time stories,
Your tender face sleeping,
And all I do is recall,
Am trying to reach for the stars,
But the gravity keeps on pulling me.

THINK WITH DRISS: UNTIL WHEN

THINK WITH DRISS: UNTIL WHEN

UNTIL WHEN

Behold he trails in the streets,
With a rusted tin,
Each step with a shiver,
To hear a dwindling sound.

Once trusted ones at peace,
Racing with coloured cars,
Each move with grace,
To attend important matters.

At the dark corner he sleeps,
Folded on a rugged mat,
An empty stomach for the day,
To hear the rats squeaking.

At the mansions they rest,
Nested on the best furniture,
Well built and healthy,
To observe the earnings of the day.

Phrase that Kills

Phrase that Kills

THINK WITH DRISS: We say No More

THINK WITH DRISS: We say No More

We say No More

No matter what the reason is...
It has to stop....
Oh God, your children we never signed for this..
Oh lord you're the only hope!!
Now everywhere its crisis..
War, attacks and rape!!
Look what happened Paris.

People are running..
From where they belong..
People are dying..
Oh Allah! for how long??

Chorus 

We say No more
In Nigeria..
Look there children are dying
In Syria...
Women are crying....
But Nobody can hear...!!

Now its enough!!!
We say no more
No more !!!

Verse 2 

Oh Lord, We don't need less..
We want over...
Please have mercy!!
We can't take any longer..

This isn't a song...
Its prayer for France..
Prayer for Brussels...
For innocents who paying the price.

We say No more Attacks..
Let's join together
And stop wars in Iraq...
For the first time let's bother...
And make everything right..

GOD BE WITH US!

This is the end

Like bing bang!!
I didn't know what happened...
          Bang bang!
Like that....
And you were there in my heart.

I really wanted to know..
What really happened!!
But there was nothing I could do.

Sikujali,
                 How crazy I was....
                 How stupid I was look...
                 When I begged for your love.

Sikukubali,
                  When you said I wasn't in your heart..
                  Even in a single page of your book...
                  I wasn't there.

Usiku na mchana...
Thinking, around you is where I belong.
Nakusahau misonyo ya Jana!!
And kept writing to you my lovely song..

Woke up in the morning...
Its only your face I see..
But
Wewe hukujali
                           How hard I was trying...
                           How inside I was crying..
Just for you to smile...

Chorus: 

Let's close this lonely book..
This lonely lonely look..
      Now its the end

Return this love,
                                From first time I took...
Wipe all tears I shed...
      This is the end.


Verse 2:

This is the end...
No more broken heart!!
Yes, we can be friends...
And pretend...
Like I can't hear my heartbeat...
This is the end.

I hope, I'll be able to stand!!! 
On my own feet..
I know it will take ages..
For me to forget!
  Coz 
I MIGHT CLOSED THE BOOK
  BUT 
YOU GOT A MISSING PAGE.

MORE THAN 4.6 MILLION CHILDREN IN ETHIOPIA FACING HUNGER FROM UNPRECEDENTED EL NIÑO DROUGHThttps://web.facebook.com/SaveTheChildrenNoChildrenBornToDie/?ref=bookmarkshttps://www.savethechildren.net/article/more-46-million-children-ethiopia-facing-hunger-unprecedented-el-niño-drought#.VokAqnH_1s4.facebook

Once upon a time

Once upon a time
There she was...
A beautiful lady with a beautiful name

The way she moves...
Nobody can't stop looking
Especially boys...
She said no, to those...
Who came with beautiful lies.

The way she talks
The way she smiles
Everybody was dying....

Once upon a time
There I was...
With nothing to offer...
With less confidence...
Always say I'll go to her later..
Near her always like in deep water..
Heavy breath, I couldn't take any longer.

Once upon a time
There she comes...
All offers from rich,
Down she turned...
And from nowhere...
She was mine...

When she hold my hand
Feel like king of universe
Her besides me like in paradise

I was never lonely
Even for a minute,
She was lovely
Like beautiful ppoetry,
She always says I was only only
Her secret chocolate.

Once upon a time
Phone rang.....
Her car got crashed at down town street..
And nobody lived..

Pray for a miracle
Hoping she wasn't there
Running to the hospital
Her body was there..
Wishing for all possible
To hear her one last time.

Once upon a time
She wasn't there....
She disappeared,
Like tears in the rain..
She left me with unexplainable pain..
In few years I was going insane,
Till the day I heard her in my dream..
Saying I should stay strong and will meet AGAIN.
