  • My First Love

    Mimi Ndiye 🇰🇪

    I have a mother who prays for me
    And pleads with The LORD everyday for me
    What a difference that makes for me
    My mother’s prayers can’t save me
    Only my own prayers can avail
    But my mother introduced me to The One
    And He can never ever fail
    Some have had kings in their lineage
    Some to whom honour was paid
    Some have immense worldly success
    And trust in the riches they’ve made
    But this is my surest asset
    I have a mother who prays for me
    And pleads with The LORD everyday for me
    My GOD! What a difference that makes for me

  • MisUnderstood

    Mimi Ndiye 🇰🇪

    From the day you were born
    Most of you were given an obligation
    That you should always understand your parents
    Understand their age, their work, their pain
    Understand their responsibilities & the times we live in
    Understand that they don’t need to be perfect
    They just need a perfect kid
    Understand that parents know everything
    And you are just a kid
    Understand that just because you have eyes
    Doesn’t mean you have a point of view
    Understand that you don’t know what’s best for you
    People often ask, “what’s wrong with you?”
    They seldom ask, “what happened to you?”
    Yet everyone expects you to find your own way
    And somehow become someone
    That your parents can be proud of
    I don’t think broken children find the time to become
    I think they just are
    And most stay as they are
    And I understand.

  • Am I Expedient?

    Mimi Ndiye 🇰🇪

    The man I have become

    Bounces along the edges
    Of anxiety and depression
    Wants to be alone
    Likes to be alone
    Finds a lot of time
    Just to be alone
    That is why I write
    That is how I write
