NO FEARs

 


NO FEARs

Eyes popping out of the dark

Mouth and nose covered for perfect silence

Oh how hilarious to see my timid self

I know fear is what the devil wants

But If this is how i look when i allow it

I will never again give in to fear!

Sudan 1993: The Face of Truth

Image
The Little Child I was not born into a poor family, yet I became a victim of a famine in the middle of a war. Don't blame me neither blame my parents, they ran off earlier to secure a portion of food from the UN. I thought I could meet up but here I am, dying slowly as the worms eat through my intestines in hunger. Enemies in and out, this bird looks more fed than I do, I thought there was famine! I saw it look at me the same way I look at my mom's breasts when I am hungry. As I closed my eyes to a world I was just born into, I saw flashes. "Oh it's a well-fed man, when was the last time I saw one and why is his skin white?" He was my guardian angel, he chased away the enemy right after storing the memory in his 'black thing'. Today or tomorrow, death comes for Everyman. What famine failed to do, Malaria did years later. Here I am in my white walking towards the light disappointed. Most of what the living think they know are lies! The Vulture If you don

Divergence

  Divergence You stole my toy! She is fair and I am dark! Everyone likes you and hate me! Oh maybe I am the special one. They say I snore. I am older but never respected. I get all the grades and I am still not loved. He is a player and I am the gentleman, But he gets all the girls and I am still single. What if I am wired? Why am I different? Am I the block head of the house? Do I have an inferiority complex? Or I am really the inferior? I know we are siblings but Sometimes I wish I was born alone. But I can't stand seeing them in trouble Does that mean I still...? What do you think about siblings rivalry? Do you have any experiences? Comments:  Siblings rivalry is ok and healthy.  @latebloomer_runner

The Phoenix

THE PHOENIX You can be who you set your mind to be and not who the society has named you. As a young child growing up, I was a coward and very timid. My academics suffered as well as my social life. I got scorned repeatedly and compared to others, as good-for-nothing. This affected my self esteem and made me shrink. I wanted to be more but couldn’t share with anyone. At some point, I thought death would be the answer but I had no strength to kill myself. I discovered the art of drawing and I made it my confidant. For everything I feel, from fear, anger, love to strength, I draw. This art is significant to my rebirth. The splash of water shows I’ve been purified and that I have channeled my fear into what I love doing and I have become more. It’s a cry back at the society, that you can only try to shrink me but I’m a Phoenix that will continue to rise. I know many share the same past, but I hope you rise stronger like I did! -TimileyinArts-
