The Scars Of Success...


 Can you show me some scars?

As you reached for the stars;

Maybe you did all you could, you know what I’m talking about.

When you were trodden down in pain;

Negotiating your way to the heights of fame and glory!


But you wish your journey was a bit more pleasant; 

Not laden with the shame that tried to pull you down.

Yet you fought your way through the thorns and thistles of life;

Wavering and staggering up the ladder of success;

Each step stronger than the previous one;

Pushing up, up and up until you reached the highest wrung at the pinnacle.

Then suddenly your view changes;

As you can now see from the heights you have attained; 

How far down you have come up from, and yet how small figures of uncertainty seem to you at that moment.

Then suddenly, you must realize that for every applause and accolade you have received;

There’s a God behind the scenes orchestrating events in your favor,

So you can fulfill every written code in the journal of destiny;

Remembering to always give thanks to Him as you reflect on the Scars Of Your Success...

THE PRICE OF FAME!

 The price of fame;   What's in a name? Feverishly gearing up your act; Not knowing what rules to enact. You keep looking into the mirror; As you rehearse your lines with all vigour; Knowing that deep down in your soul, You have missed the mark with just a meal in a bowl. You know, you have sold your soul to deception; And there is just a thin line between reality and imagination! You let the very essence of who you ought to be, go; just for a moment of faded glory, and now you say no! Yet there is One Who still knows and grieves; For by His stripes we are healed! His Love and Scars are a reminder of His Sacrifice; So don't let it be in vain even in your lingering demise! Poem written by Ewoma.

The Time is Now!

 In the midst of the raging storm; Therein lies a glimpse of glory; You wonder how you're going to get through, Just hold on to the Hand of Glory! Wandering or stumbling through the night, Amongst the blocks though denying it's certainty, But you are aware of your time worth- Isn't in the trials you face by firelight! Yet by the intricate mercies of God, We have overcome the distant howling and  screams, Of a  life descended down to Hades; It was never your portion to go that way in the first instance, But due to the negotiation of the human soul; You will end up in the abyss, The dark abyss of eternal destruction! REPENT!!! For the hour has come and the Glory of God has emerged, Lest you find yourself in the throes of darkness and eternal suffering! Poem written by Ewoma.

PEOPLE AND PLACES

 People and places, Dresses and cases; Times and seasons, On the move, on the go! Running towards the finishing line, Drilling treasures from a gold mine. Whispering and gossips: Two faced liars and deceivers. Too many people caught up on trips; Just too late to return the hires. But let's all remember that there will be a time of reckoning: Judgements, rewards and beckoning, For those who made their stay worthwhile though sometimes painfully lingering; Yet there would be some who though hindering, Will have their words displayed on Eternal boards and on walls, Where there will be darkness, howling and growling!
