ANYWAY, ONCE I LIVED!

A memory worth keeping the times present. So long a pen to paper, nor a finger to type 
what the circumstances present. But when the feeling keeps growing harder and faster,
the brain illuminates the face to present a smile deep within breaking the hardened, 
Saddened heart for lack of a better way to express the emotions that keep filling deep within. 
And beneath the lies come the truth.

Talk or other, deny the truth but the truth slaps harder and one by one soon the laughter 
will cease. For the womb that knows the pain and the hand that feeds your mouth knowing 
the dangers and struggles involved, I look back and wonder whether any sense remains. 
For the hope once showed now dwindles fast paced when the branches fall to the ground that 
feed and house their roots. The cry is surely on and louder it gets.

Bite your finger harder, the nose will keep bleeding and slowly you'll go to rest but the 
pain sharper. Louder and louder the noise as we await the neighbours sons and daughters to 
make our house a laughing stock. And when I rest my case I look foolish in their eyes.
But hey, "hoona tirwasa ruranyegyera"! She'll say and keep a keen eye on the needles that 
pierce the cloth deeper. But finally we shall head to church at our upcountry residence 
to give thanks to the lord.
-Kuteisa.

Like its's my Life

I have lived all my life hoping that my future will be so bright. I may not have had parents or even a close mentor to make me feel more comfortable like any other person, yet am not grieved at all.

What surpasses my understanding are the people who one would think would be the ones to see me through with this life yet they seem to be playing games not with me but their conscience. Am actually not even scared. I keep on following my dreams and God being my guide and helper hope to achieve them all. How about you, what's your take on such people. Anyway, do we have to cry that we have been let down by our closest friends and relatives? 

Keep hoping and moving on.
