The Lady Behind the curtain by Ogri Sarah Mathilda (@Mathillss)

There she goes watching
In her hidden and unseen camera
She takes each step carefully
Benign her feet are markings
Markings of her purchase
Purchased forcefully or either willingly
At the detriment for her not knowing but being Ignorant
She sees the world
And watch each day grow old
She's been purchased to love
And create a live for whom to someday might look back
With eyes pale if only freedom
Been given
She the lady
Wrapped up with Inquisitive eyes
Shielded with curtains of her bedroom
Blinded not to look up but stare down and concur to every word "gida" says
She sees me singing freely
Doing the dishes
And with a corning look
She wishes and hisses
She had the world in her arms
To reach and soar freely in her own bearings

Converted but Unbroken Christians!

Converted but Unbroken Christians! These Christians are converted but they have refused to be broken of themselves to the Will of God! One example we have in the Bible is Jacob!

Later in Jacob's life, God renamed him Israel, which means "he struggles with God." In fact, Jacob struggled with God his entire life, as many of us do. As he matured in faith, Jacob depended on God more and more. But the turning point for Jacob came after a dramatic, all-night wrestling match with God. In the end the Lord touched Jacob's hip and he was a broken man, but also a new man. From that day forward, Jacob was called Israel. And for the rest of his life he walked with a limp, demonstrating his dependence on the Lord. Jacob finally learned to give up control to God. Converted but unbroken Christians are workers of ...

A boy was going for a walk. It was a Wednesday, Jerry was supposed to be in school just as his peers were, but things were no longer the same at home. Beverly his cousin was in coma and  his dad had become a drunk, his Mum, a nagging wife. Nothing seemed right anymore. So he decided, to take a stroll. Hoping it'd ease off the pain and anger he felt within. Two streets away from home, he heard a gun shot, three gun shots ; At the building where he was resting. The gate seemed to be ajar, so he walked in trying to figure out what had happened. He met his Mum lying helplessly in cold blood, someone had shot her, he tried running after the one who had shot her, but he had lost whomever it was, he went straight into the rooms searching, there was no one, except for himself and his dead mother. Her body had become all cold, how  did he get here in the first place? he wondered. There were sounds from afar, someone was in the house. "Jerry... " " Wetin happen ? ...

It made sense now, it all made sense now, He smashed his hands against each other. “Argh! He busted out as he rolled on the prison floor.” He tried killing the soldier but ended up killing his mother. The soldier tried raping her, he wasn’t even sure if he succeeded, all he knew was he heard Beverly screaming Until he heard no more.… “Young man, your life is in your hands. Choose one, destroy it or forever be happy with your life, which will you choose” Mr Sola eyes bulged out as though, trying to frighten me. But I wasn’t frightened. “Damn it boy!  I’m trying to help you… can’t you see what’s at stake here. Why did you kill you mother? What were you doing in the room of Mr Ken Osita?” Why was your cousin, the daughter of late Mr Johnson laying unconscious? What had gone wrong that night? Talk to me!!” Please… …… It was time, the plea was the surge I needed. So I presented the broken piece of my life to Mr Sola. ……. “What a pathetic story bo...
