Martin Greyford Poems

i've been far
from you for too long
i guess its time
i'm coming home.
...

I have seen darkness
The very darkness in the abyss
But this one is too cold.
Not cold as ice but the fog of the frost

I never knew it could lead to this
We were both so young
When we first met.

She's always seen with different guys.
Maybe every after now and then.
She's in the streets at night,
In the day she's paying attention
...

Very Soon,
Destiny will put you in the
Midst of a peaceful family,
But it will send me into the

I think about you in every moment and every image of
you hurts me horribly. I want to feel every thought,
every whisper you say in the deep silence of the
eternity of you soul. To be able to cry in me,

Men and women have hardly begunTo
the true object of life.
They are attracted to glitter and show.
They are ambitious for worldly preeminence.
...

My neighbors,
Remember the dawn of youth with
Pleasure and regret its passing;
In a few days,

Martin Greyford Biography

Martin Greyford is a poet, song writer and author. Born in Mkushi, Central Province of Zambia to Catholic parents.He was born in 1996, September 16th. He was the second born in a family of seven. The elder sister and the first born died at an early age in a pool of water in one of the streams in Mkushi, making him to be the first born now. Raised in rural for six years and at the age of seven relocated to the business capital Lusaka. After some months he started school at Linda Open Community School formerly called Zambia Open Community School for a week then went to The House of Joseph Christian School for about two years. In 2006 he was enrolled at Mt. Makulu Basic School third grade to ninth grade. After passing the Grade 9 exams with remarkably good points he was enrolled at Parklands High School where he completed his secondary education. It was in high school that he befriended Darlington Daka whom he has grown up with, whom considers a brother his mother never bore. There friendship has proven to be a blessing from God and such a one we can compare to that of David and Jonathan in the Bible. In 2011, a religious revival took place in Linda, resulting in confessions of faith among his peers. He wrote to a friend the following year: 'I never enjoyed such perfect peace and happiness as the short time in which I felt I had found my savior.' He went on to say that it was his 'greatest pleasure to commune alone with the great God and to feel that he would listen to my prayers.' The experience lasted that in the following year Martin was baptized at Calvary Hour Gospel Ministries where he made a formal declaration of faith and attended services regularly. He went on to study Theology at International Training Institute where he was awarded a diploma in theology and a certificate in pastoral ministries later. He is currently a member and leader of church under Church of God World Missions in Mimosa. The young and gifted orator of the Word of God. Martin is currently engaged to his long time girlfriend Leah Nyirenda the woman he met when he had gone to minister at Church of God World Missions House of Joy chapel in Linda. He has written so many poems and composed several songs of which are recorded and proved to be hits. Of the poems composed none has been published yet and the books. By all accounts, young Martin was a well-behaved boy. On an extended visit to Lilanda when he was 10, Martin's Aunt described him as 'perfectly well and contented - He is a very good child and but little trouble.' Martin's aunt also noted the boy's affinity for music and his particular talent for the piano, which he called 'the moosic' He was troubled from a young age by the 'deepening menace' of death, especially the deaths of those who were close to him. When Beatrice, her second young sister grew ill from fibroids and died in June,2021, Martin was traumatized. Recalling the incident two months later, he wrote that 'it seemed to me I should die too if I could not be permitted to watch over her or even look at her face.' He became so melancholic. He is yet to write and compose more poems and songs.)

The Best Poem Of Martin Greyford

Meet Me At The River

i've been far
from you for too long
i guess its time
i'm coming home.

i'm tired of myself
i; m tired of my sin
i'm tired of the negative
things i have done.

o dear God
meet me at the river
where you'll immerse deep
all my fears and sins.

i am ready to become
a new creature
in Christ Jesus
meet me at the river.

Martin Greyford Quotes

the future of a person lies in his hands

Love can conquer and overcome obstacles in a relationship only with the commitment and trust towards each other.

'A student that honours his master honours himself'

'Love the present, nurture your dreams, and fulfil your responsibilities, and the future will take care of itself.'

'as a believer just know that heaven takes notice of you and hell takes notice of you'

'stigmatisation is only a word to those who doesn't value humanity'

'hiv/aids is not a disease but a health condition in which or where people drag themselves in demonically'

'as a christian whenever you sleep with a girl or woman before or outside marriage, you are linked or initiated to that person demonically'

'patriotism does not come without sacrifice'

'make failure your teacher not your undertaker'

Stupidity is knowing the truth about something and you are not exercising it.

The master key of everything is learning.

Life without teachers will be hard no matter how hard we try.

No man can teach you what God wants to teach you and vice versa.

What you have is raw material

If you learn to hear God you will never miss your destiny.

Life is a lesson! Each and every moment of the day teaches you something!

Never let go of the hand that holds you!

Nobody knows the truth about you except you yourself!

It does not matter how slow you go as long you don't stop

If you can't picture your future you will never feature in it.

The harder you work for something, the greater you'll feel when you achieve it.

Happiness is not something ready made from your own section

one bad chapter doesn't mean your story is over.

We live perfecting each other
