Bernard Gabriel Okurut Poems
- 1. This Coward I Have Become.
I almost speak up,
But your beauty shuts me up.
I guess I need your help
To overcome this coward I have become.
...
- 2. For Without You, I Don't Know Who I Am.

- 3. Art!

Clothed in a golden shell
With nothing but outer beauty to sell...
...
- 4. Light-years

For my soul is at rest.

- 8. I Will Rise And Shine.
I will rise and shine
Like the smiling morning sun,
From grass to grace
Like a phoenix rising from it's ashes.

Quiet as you are,
Your silence roars in my ears.
With my eyes closed,
Dreams bring you to me.
