POEM: DREAMS IN 24 HOURS

In the middle of the night

So soon as the clock strikes in the morning

I heard a dream

I dreamt of a life where I can see

All the things of fantasy

I dreamt of things that get in reel

Where everything looks so surreal

I dreamt of things that I don’t have

Where I can find some peace of mind not hearted

I dreamt and fulfilled my desires that my dreams will be a reality in 24 hours

I find myself still awake

Tossing and turning

Thinking and thinking about the day that awaits

When my mind was against me

My mother immediately called me, you, take knowledge

You will eventually find your euphoric key

With this pen

You just need to hold on, hold on

I was at varsity in my comfort zone.
I never knew the reality.
My dreams were unlimited.
The Sky was the limit.

I never knew that today I would be
Sitting here unemployed, so hopeless, comfortless
and ashamed of myself.

Not interested

We regret to inform you that

We are sorry we are not hiring at this time

Getting that email over and over again made me cry in vain

The reality is

To be employed is not about how much you know, but who you know

Corruption, nepotism, ignorance
were the walls that pushed me down into the vanity

Blindfolding me from every reality

it made me fall and never let me stand tall.

All my dreams started fading away

Unemployment became the cause of poverty, conflicts, depression,

Street kids everywhere, children crying,

people dying of hunger

no one is there to hold one’s hand, people became beasts.

I couldn’t just sit and watch others suffering
you got two arms, two hands, two legs, two eyes,
And a brain to use if you would be wise.

Why be so hopeless to think you can depend on others?
With this equipment, you are satisfied,
to start for the top and say “I can.”

Invention, creativity, innovation

Is how we make it happen.

Removing our hands from our pockets and hold each other

Supporting made in Rwanda

Forward climbing the mountain of the development of so-called iterambere, none is left behind

The chains of holding hands are clear as we are clean

No matter how strong the thunder is

There is no anyone willing to unhold till we reach at the top together

Kugasongero kubunyarwanda.
