Let it go—Make room for rediscovery,New paths to wander,New […]

By Shem Onderi My mouth—You are my everything.You feed me:With food,With words,With everything in between. You taste it all,Chew it,Shape it for swallowing—Long before I think to digest.

By Obaigwa Alex It feels so wonderful to see your friendly face—It makes me dream of whisking you away to another place, Where no one can find us, no one can intrude,Just you and me wrapped in eternal solitude.You’re the only one whose love comes without a price—Thank you, my love, for giving me a […]

By Chipanga Daniel I will always choose to be happy—A positive thought of myself,Knowing that problems are just bumps in life,So I treasure every moment I have. They say money can’t buy happiness,But I beg to differ,Because wealth can bring—Joy, love, peace, and even respect. I have my own life idols,I admire their wisdom and […]

By Dories Kwamboka We were not born in peace.We were born in the smoke of tear gas,In the silence of unpaid school fees,In homes where hunger speaks louder than sleep.
