I'd love to say a big thank you to you all for making my birthday special. You're also special to me :) I thank God for my life, and for giving me wonderful friends and family, God bless you all. I decided to share a lil' something I wrote today. Enjoy:
I still remember
when I was four, the games I played with my doll
Until the
neighbours pierced holes in its mouth and between its legs
Because they
wanted it to be able to eat and pee, they said
I was
promised a new doll, one which till today I have not received
I remember
the time I gazed at the sun for a long time
Just
because of a stupid game I played with my friend
And no
matter what the doctors have said about my eyes
I am
still convinced that was the cause of the trouble.
I
remember just before I turned ten and went to board
It took
just a term for me to learn words I had never heard
And see many
girls of all characters, I tell you!
Some I cherished
and some I hope I never hear or meet again
I
remember the first time it came, dysentery I thought it was
Until my
mother said I could no longer play with
the boys
So
instantly the video game I was a part of, I had to quit
Quoting to
them what she said, that I could no longer play with them
I
remember when my best friend was taken away
The pain
that still burns through my heart and my soul
The
friends that held me through the night and day
How
grateful I truly am to you now and always
I
remember when I wrote my very first piece
A song I
sing till today but will never share
Amazing how
a hobby slowly becomes a habit
And how
blessed I am to share them with you all.Have a lovely weekend and please share. xx
