"Heart a Poet Cannot Tell" Now Published

I'm very delighted to share with you my first poetry book "Heart a Poet Cannot Tell".
It's been a long journey of writing and rewriting day and night (for almost a year) but now my work and my effort are not at all wasted.
As I have mentioned in previous posts, the book contain One Hundred poems collected from other many more I've been writing since considering myself a poet. I gave it a lot of time and attention (in fact, I gave it all of myself) and I'm very proud to have it finally and the way it is.
It is currently available only in eBook format on Lulu.com and will very soon be available on other online book stores (and print copies of course).

Get a copy at http://www.lulu.com/shop/nizeyimana-fabrice/heart-a-poet-cannot-tell/ebook/product-22792896.html only at 1.99$ and don't forget to give it a review and to share it with a friend or two.

Thank you!

Haunting Drawing

Draw my heart 
On walls of your room
It'll haunt with flowers
At night
Before falling asleep
Mount my name
So quiet to hear
I'll stop by at dawn
With sunrise in lyrics
I am cold and bare
And quiver for you 
Not being there
If I was to play again
With the youth of my state
I bet this pain
I'd sing it only in tale
I cling to the heaven
Your lips may offer
Not forgetting your eyes
Damn, what you gave me
Met your apathy
To kill me
To keep me alive
Effectively
And silently






P.S: I am over excited to share with you this beautiful and artistic official cover of my book.
It was designed by Sammy Lionel.

For You

Last night alone
Was like reading poetry
Leading life where
It is never too late
Your smile broadened lately
You stood harsh times
Your children, we died
With you
For you

It is in centuries you were born
Fifty-four you live
And only twenty-two alive
You rose with heavenly sun
From West to East
Never again will you cry
Your children, we will cry
With you
For you

I Should Have

I arose early this morning
In an abyss remorse
Of what I should’ve done
When you were around

When I was chasing after the wind
I should’ve stopped by your station
Only to say hello to your lone spirit
And when I was climbing
A dead-end tower to the top
I should’ve opened my blind eyes
Only to see that you were beneath

When I was buried
In the fantasy of my room alive
I should’ve opened my window
At least to let the light inside
And when I was a selfish Emperor
I should’ve opened my world
At least to let new born

When I heard an imploring knock
I should have hurried to the door
And open it before it was too late
And when you came by my side sobbing
I shouldn’t’ve undone my sword’s cane
Only to let your wound heal first

When you waved your hands
Helplessly sinking in my sea
I should’ve stopped my ship
To save you before expiring
And when you showed up
From other side of the road
I should’ve lowered down
My spaceship and let you in

When you appealed
I should’ve opened my book
To your favorite chapter
And when your heart
Was haunted with despair
I should’ve showed up from corner
For your smile to arise again

Now I stand alone in my universe
For my stupidity exceeded reality
And heart is reciting nonsense verse
Of what I should’ve done in past

(Apology of Not Posting)

It is my heartfelt duty to present my reason of spending two consecutive Saturdays without posting anything.
From 9th June, I've been seriously sick that I couldn't make it either to write anything new, or to stand anything with so much light like phone and computer screen therefore I had to wait my full recovery.
I will resume posting again this coming Saturday on 25th and I'm looking forward to hear from you again.
Oh, I hope your calendars are still marked 18th of July. Nothing has changed to the publication of Heart a Poet Cannot Tell.

Love!
