When the world turns,
And you’re still standing still,
When everything you want,
Speeds right round the rings of Saturn,
Scream at the sky if you must,
And if your shooting star passes by,
Then in your quietness you’ve won.
I didn’t want to tell you,
That what you want doesn’t want you,
But if it’s meant to be yours,
It’d find you, it’d hold you,
It would call you home.
In solitude, find solace,
In silence, feed your voice.
I wouldn’t say
“Do not reach for the sky”,
Just don’t weep like rainfall,
When it reaches back.

My name is Jenim Dibie. I'm a poet and writer. I've written four poetry books so far - Scarcast, The Calligraphy of God, How To Dance In Time, and I just released my fourth book - Birdsongs.
I started writing poetry at an early age, and it has been the sole passion of my existence. I’ve written over 500 poems since my childhood. I love writing, music, movies, reading, dancing, and The Office.
I decided to start blogging to give the world a warm hug, just as words have embraced me all my life.
I hope to one day live in a house by the sea, with 10 dogs, and write a 100 books.
May you find color in my black.
