Poems by Takudzwa Murashiki

Do not fall in love with me, I am a storm,
An unpredictable force, fierce and warm.
I bring thunder and lightning, chaos untamed,
Leaving naught but destruction once I'm proclaimed.

Like a gale I'll sweep you off your feet,
With passion and intensity, hard to meet.
But beware, my love, the winds that I possess,
They may enthrall you, yet leave your world in distress.

My heart is a tempest, a brewing typhoon,
With dark clouds of longing that forever loom.
For if you dare to enter, you might get lost,
Caught in the whirlwind, at a reckless cost.

I am the thunder, piercing through the air,
Electric energy, charged without a care.
But with each boom, my love, I leave my mark,
A scar on your soul, that stays in the dark.

And when the rain comes, pouring from the sky,
It washes away dreams, leaving tears dry.
For I am a storm that cannot be tamed,
Leaving hearts broken, with love unclaimed.

So do not fall in love with me, my dear,
For I will engulf you with doubt and fear.
You deserve sunshine and calm, gentle and true,
Not a tempest that leaves nothing but residue.

Find solace elsewhere, in someone who'll provide
A love that won't destroy, but grow like the tide.
For I am a storm, wild and untamed,
Best to admire from afar, for love unclaimed

To all my girlfriends, past and present,
This poem is for you, my loves so pleasant.
We've shared laughter, tears, and plenty of fun,
Through good times and bad, we've always stayed as one.

To my first love, you taught me how to feel,
The joy and excitement that love can reveal.
You held my hand and showed me the way,
But sometimes, we just couldn't make it stay.

To the one who came after, you brought me light,
With you, every day felt so bright.
But our paths diverged, our hearts went astray,
And we had no choice but to go our separate ways.

To the ones in between, who gave love a chance,
We danced in romance's fleeting, passionate dance.
Though brief our connections, they were meaningful too,
Each of you brought something rare and true.

To my current love, by my side so strong,
You've shown me that love can never be wrong.
We've weathered storms and basked in the sun,
Together, we've built a love that can't be undone.

To all my girlfriends, past and present, I say,
Thank you for being a part of my journey's way.
Each of you has shaped me, taught me to grow,
And I'm grateful for the love we've come to know.

So here's to my girlfriends, one and all,
For supporting me, catching me whenever I fall.
You've left an imprint on my heart so true
And I'll cherish our memories, forever thankful to you.

If heaven demanded I leave you,
I would turn my back on heaven.
If hell opened its gates,
I would walk through willingly
if I knew your shadow was
waiting on the other side.
And when the last tree falls,
when the moon hangs pale
over a world with nothing left to lose,
I will find you beneath the ashes.

I still bleed for you

I saw your shining face
In a very cold place
On that lonely day
When you went away
I wonder why
You always have to lie
When I'm still here
With my memory and fear
I feel the pain
Because you will never love me again
I still feel sad
I will give you all I have
I will give you my heart and soul
I will be there if you call
I will give you my all
I don't know what to do
Or where shall i go
Where do I belong
With this sad song
Your love is all I need
Because I still bleed

I will weave a poem, so divine,
To touch your soul, to make it shine.
With words that flow in graceful flight,
I'll paint a canvas of pure delight.

With ink-stained quill, I'll craft a tale,
Of love and hope that will prevail.
Through valleys deep and mountains high,
We'll journey, reaching for the sky.

I'll dance with metaphors in the night,
Unveiling truths that bring us light.
In harmonious cadence, verse by verse,
We'll find solace from life's curse.

When shadows cast their daunting spell,
I'll spin a web where dreams can dwell.
With heartfelt lines and tender grace,
I'll guide you to a blissful place.

For I am a poet, bound by art,
A vessel of emotions, a beating heart.
I'll unravel secrets, both deep and true,
And share with you, my world anew.

So come, dear reader, take my hand,
Let's embark on a journey so grand.
Together, through poetry's embrace,
We'll find belonging, boundless space.
