My eyes struck yours,Just fast enough to notice.You’ve been staring at me,Like you wanna devour me . We play this game –A reckless, wordless dare.Where no one moves,But everything shifts Your smile is a ripple effect,Just bright enough to make the sun seem dull .It gives goosebumps strong enough,To heal an aching heart. Your bodyContinue reading “THE ECHO BETWEEN US – WANJA’S POETRY!”

LOST- WANJA’S POETRY!
I’m lost,in my head, no direction.Living hopelessly with no aspirations.My heart has a lump of no clarification.My pen dried out with no inspiration. I feel a void that nothing can fill.A hunger no food can satiate.A thirst that no amount of water can quench.A wound that no amount of time can heal. In an abyssContinue reading “LOST- WANJA’S POETRY!”
GIVE ME A PEN AND PAPER! -WANJA’S POETRY
Give me a pen and paper,My canvas and paint,My art work,my pain. Give me a pen and paper,I’ll write about my shame,So beautifully it can’t be erased. Give me a pen and paper,I’ll narrate my tales,So profoundly y’all will relate. Give me a pen and paper,I’ll try and educate,So elaborate y’all will appreciate. Give meContinue reading “GIVE ME A PEN AND PAPER! -WANJA’S POETRY”
RUBBLE -WANJA’S POETRY!
From the debris that’s left, seems like my life took a turn to the left.All that’s left is so chaotic and full of messy memories,So many broken pieces that can’t be whole no more . When it breaks it shatters, nothing was left to chance.It was a gamble all along and you held my handContinue reading “RUBBLE -WANJA’S POETRY!”
SILENCE!- WANJA’S POETRY
Silence is loud, silence is chaotic.Silence screams, silence is still!Shush hush it goes,the sound of loneliness.Silence isn’t a safe space, it’s a safe death. Silence is painful, silence is jealous,It robs us of peace, robs us of connection.Silence is shameful, deceitful,It robs us our confidence our truth! Silence drowns us, it enables our sorrows.It’s aContinue reading “SILENCE!- WANJA’S POETRY”
HOW DOES IT END! – @WANJA’S POETRY
How does this end? With tears most probably.All the nights we’ve cried ourselves to sleep.All the screams in the depth of our souls.All the ache that shatter our hearts to pieces.How does it end! With a little bit of laughter?All the joy that the littlest of things bring.All the happiness we share with loved ones.AllContinue reading “HOW DOES IT END! – @WANJA’S POETRY”
SHE! – @WANJA’S POETRY
She wears her heart on her sleeves,She is one to cry when watching movies.She is confident yet so fragile.She is strong yet so weak. Her absence is felt.Her smile is bright.Her laughter contagious.Her character ambitious. She is everything, she is a powerhouse, she reigns!
REBIRTH! – @WANJA’S POETRY
Adversity is a bitter pill to swallow,But it’s a tool we must borrowIf we wanna know growth, we yearn to sprout.Like a flower that blossoms through drought. Mama we made it, is all we wanna say.However it comes out as “mama please save me!”We win, we learn, but nobody speaks of the miles we run.TheContinue reading “REBIRTH! – @WANJA’S POETRY”
ROPE AROUND MY THROAT -@ WANJA’S POETRY
I’m in a battle with what I think. In a battle with what I know. Dreamt so much of the grass being greener, But the grassland turned to be so blue. Been watering so many things to growth. However they turned out to be the rope around my throat, Knives on my back, an abyssContinue reading “ROPE AROUND MY THROAT -@ WANJA’S POETRY”
LET NOT! – @Wanja’s poetry
Let your hands find success in your hard work .Let your eyes glaze at the growth of your empire.Let your feet endure the steps to greater heights.Let your ears heed to the voice of reason. And let not the ocean look smaller in your eyes.And let not your problems look bigger than the mountains.And letContinue reading “LET NOT! – @Wanja’s poetry”
