Broken, to what looked beyond repair,Flowers withered,No bloom in sight,Lost sight,Of who I was, and most importantly, whose I was.To what looked like a dead end,A life sentence,A permanent drought,The end of every hope, every dream and all imagination.Broken!Memories that traumatized,Anxious thoughts,Unsettled mind,Did I……….? Didn’t I……….?Lingering.It got cloudy, It got dark,Who was I to stay…… Continue reading HEALED

Art by: Lionel Smit Isn’t love supposed to be scarring and not endearing? Submissive and not liberal? Or is it the other way around? The old will say, live your life to the fullest, you’ll get there eventually, But where am I going? Live everyday as though it were your last, The last time she…… Continue reading 19/04/2021
Airtight
You know I am not a very patient person. My heart bleeds, My heart is in pain, No, it is not a poem. It is my hearts cry. A cry for help because I don’t know when this pain will end. I try to hope that tomorrow it will get better but rather it hurts…… Continue reading Airtight

Marlene’s Dream
she’s like a lifeless doll, blank stare, who’s there? the world passes her by, she holds on to the little hope that she has left, one little move and she’s found out, she swears she’s not a victim, but her cuts are not just skin deep she swears she’s not a victim, but she’s always…… Continue reading Marlene’s Dream
Only You
Only you have the power to save yourself, from a perverse world; the lions den. Only you have the right to write your story, from the horse’s own mouth; how does the grass taste? Only you have the power to change the narrative, from the mundane ideologies; start already. Only you can, not your parents,…… Continue reading Only You
Belleza
Her eyes were a light shade of blue, Her lips always quivered into a grin, But when she smiled, the world stood still, Revolving around her, Her aura was riveting, And from afar her presence could be felt, She had a quiet strength about her, And yet the silence screamed so loud, She was alone…… Continue reading Belleza
At One Point in History
do you remember when I told you the story of a little boy, a little boy whose tears mattered only at birth, the beginning of his life and the end of another’s, or maybe even his own, everything in between was like a fog so thick, that only the brave and willing would fight through…… Continue reading At One Point in History
