Must wars take away our children?


My twins ripped from my breasts
Head smashed on a tree
The other pounded in a mortar
Life drained out of me
Darkness filled my surrounding

 Woke up with a start...
Unable to close my legs
A pain sharper than anything pierced through my body
Head pounding like it would split in the next second
Flies buzzing everywhere

 Opening my eyes
Several dead surrounded me
I shifted a bit
The pain bit in
I sank back

 I opened my lips,
Words stuck in my throat
My lips so perched
I couldn't lick it 
All i needed was water 

 Where are my babies?

Then it dawned on me            The events of the day
I broke down 
I couldn't cry
I couldn't scream
I lay there helpless
Bleeding profusely
All i wanted was to die
Must wars take away our children?

 Death come take me

Her ...We can't do this Him: But we are already doing this, relax Her: It is wrong, soo wrong Him: ssssshhhh, just enjoy it Boy, she is literally melting at this point Her: ahhhhh,mmmmmnnn Her: Are you sure, she mumbles through the panting She is loving every thrust, he knows what he is doing with her Her conscience is heavy, but emotions have won She hasn't been touched in a while and she had been dripping from earlier But knew better Him: Hey, we are adults, i want this, i want you Her: mmmmmnnnn Her: Okay baby He is driving her to heaven She clings to him for her dear life His breathing gets faster, and heavier with every move And booooooom, he is free! He falls on his back as his breathing starts to normalise At this point, the devil in her has been stirred, she wants more and more It is about the two of them,  She wants him whole!

A Diary of a Stranger

That morning we had a beautiful sunrise  And an epic sunset  The moon and the stars weren't ready to be a part of our history  Neither did we make one with the sun But the wind and trees witnessed the beauty shared PC: Internet Through the eyes of AYENYO Joanita ©  2024 You can watch the video here  https://www.tiktok.com/@ayenyoj/video/7324587543486319878?lang=en Subscribe  to my channels YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@ayenyo1 Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/ayenyojoanita Twitter: @ayenyo1 Instagram: @joanitaayenyo Tiktok: @ayenyoj

The African Wife

Image
When the African moon rises tonight I will sway in delight And crane my neck in wait For the one who has stolen my heart returns tonight Oh my beloved! The one whose presence makes me swoon, When his fingers brush my skin Blood rushes through  And I gasp for breath Oo my beloved You have been away too long My body aches for you. Tonight you will consume me The passion burns hotter than the pit of a volcano Is that his shadow over there? The African moon brings back my emperor  And tonight The wait will be over.
