MY BROKEN VOW

As time passes i realize,                         

              not because,i denied,i believed.              

            you never had to convince me,

 i was already convicted

     I knew you intended good

      but i still had to let you go.

  

Heart broken for that name
Ram made a grief,a print,shinny,

                                                        sparkling,gritter but bitter

  since what i wanted 

   is never what i got

   I lost it all
   both of it gone 

                                                                destroyed by the tragic truth,
 see you broken was hell

 The pieces i couldn't gather back together

 but watching them quenched away forever


 Not responding to your request
 Reality is,i never wanted to leave

 neither to hurt.....

 I only wanted what could last

 because i could feel what you wanted
blew up before even i see it coming   

                                                      
Her you are and here am i
 both of us trying to make it 

a memory but history still hurting

nobody is moving,we are tying to each other.

                                                           
   avoiding eye contact,
heart finds its own way

and soul knows that.

                                                   
Lying to you is the sin
i could never be forgiven

your innocence couldn't keep it hidden

                                                              
i respected your choice
but i can still hear your voice

murmuring into my ears.

You still mean alot to me

                                                          
  I owe you a lot from then till now

 the story to live happy ever after
 from generation to generation
 from story to history
 not a fairytale but truth to last.

                                              
Your positive intent

to a wrong person

stole the treasure and here is


The leisure gone and
pleasure fading

all of it gone and
all i am seeing now

                                                        
  is MY BROKEN VOW.

                                                                            UMWALI IZA ALYCE.

      

                                                            

                                                            

FAREWELL

With tears rolling in my eyes

my mouth fighting to smile

a lot running in my mind

story i wouldn't want to tell

.......

Though this had to happen

the reality i never wanted to embrace

the truth i can't get a long with gonna be real

with you not around, i don't want to live you as

a memory,goodbye is shacking me

........

All the memories i ca't get ride  of

are still attached to me and i can't stand it no more

when the feelings still lay so common

he still had the extremity of his love for me

and i still found my happiness in yours

......

I will always keep it alive

everyday living your presence

i don't want to feel your absence

.......

Heartbroken is the current me

fluids my eyes never wanted to shades

the moment i never wanted to live

are now drowning me into horror

admitting you gone is a real terror

.......

Go get it

that voice into ears,that hunt your dreams

chases your nights,calling your name

it might be right and even real

can't hold you for long since

it's strong than me and i can't help it

.......

Spread your wings and fly

the vow we made will protect me

and they will guide you

when love brings you back

i will hold you in my arms

like you were never gone

.....

farewell will never be forever

we will give it an other meaning

a definition to last,word of hope

that good memories never die

and that

there is always life after life.

i will see you again.

HOME

I  don't mean a roof 

with it's four corners

but where self finds its self

safe to be gathered with

belongings

.......

Everywhere is not home

safe place ain't anywhere

shelter is not in the naza but

where heart dwells

.........

 

Life offers a lot to learn

give chance to discover

the meaning of what we call

reality behind what we know

to be true

.........

Mystically as it hurts,it hunts

safest place lives within

there's no place to go

out of me there's no where

.......

I am the secret hiding corner

for my tears and my emotion

to reveal and release.

self is home for i

THE HUNTING SOUVENIR

When was the last time

                        i had you?                      

                       It's hunting                   

                     chasing                      

running into my mind

reminding,recalling    

all that it used to be.   .

......

It hurts

it bleeds

it kills 

When you know

you lost it forever 

but your heart

still yearns

for it

...

  That moment

that never fade

that last forever

even when

time passes

.....

Technically

laying in the past

Basically

living the current

Eventually

attached to you

......

When eyes shade tears

Know that soul is screaming

and heart is broken

........

Umwali Alyce: HE TOLD ME: Your eyes                     will shade tears Blood                            will flow out of            your vain You'll ...

HE TOLD ME

Your eyes

                    will shade tears

Blood       

                    will flow out of

           your vain

You'll live

              under sweat

           not sweet

         You will scream   

                 echoes will 

                                hold back your voice

The sun         

            will rise

                         and sets on you

You will see    

                           the world turning

                      all around you

You will notice  

                          the time rushing 

                              and you left behind

                    standing still

There will be      

                              no direction for you

                             you will be having

              no escape

     You will forget           

                             all about your dues

                                     and the worst will cross

               your mind

By then remember  

                                          that I never left you............

                            JESUS TOLD ME.
