22/F/Zimbabwe Why do you write?
You have questions You wonder what led me to doing it You wonder if l was ever happy This is a letter from a dead soul I thought l did not have a choice I could not take the pain anymore I tried being strong for years but inside I was dying With each year passing l had hopes that the pain will end but it ddnt The pain never stopped and l did not want to suffer anymore. I wanted to be happy like a normal human being. Then l saw an easy way out I won't lie it wasn't hard Pain versus pain I became numb. I swear l told myself l would stop But with each cutting l grew to like it I wanted to stop but l became addicted to hurting myself Then the day came. My last day, to me it was going to be my last day cutting myself But to the whole world it was going to be my last day breathing I took the razor and l cut my self I dont know how or why but l hit the wrong vein Then l was no more in the world You might think it was your fault You blame yourself But l wrote this letter from my grave So that l clarify things it was never your fault I ruined me.

Letter from a dead soul
I lost someone close to my heart I lost someone who can never be replaced I lost what l wasn't suppose to lose A mother A best friend A shoulder to cry on My comforter My protector I did not just lose a mother I lost someone who was My everything My world Mama you have left a void that no.one will ever fill I can not imagine life without you I lost the most important person in my life And am scared of losing myself right now

I caught them staring Whispering behind my back I did not choose to be different But yet they think it was my choice I did not choose my skin colour They look at me with ugly stares I did not choose my race To them am a curse A taboo But am only human With a different skin tone How do l reason with people Who wish to **** me They call me names To them l am trash And trash needs to be disposed They are plotting against me They are thinking of ways To get rid of me And l just wonder What l ever did wrong I just wonder if this hatred will ever stop

He said I can't help but wonder What if we were in quiet place A place isolated from the noise of the world A place blooming with scent flowers The only noise is our intimate breaths And that of nature being blown by steady winds What if it was just the two of us She said What if All of this is a dream A dream we never want to wake up from A dream that both of us enjoy yet at the same time scared of A dream were only our souls 're entwined, our hearts 're binded but our bodies re in two different planets

What if
write Did l tell you Why l write No l did not You never asked I also wonder why you never bothered   Probably you think I write because I am a writer Easy right No l don't write because am a writer But because I breath poetry I walk a step of poetry I got my heart broken by poetry My broken pieces were fixed by poetry I fight poetry I make love to poetry. That's why l write Not for fun but because am in too deep and l can't come out

Am done trying They say giving up is for losers but Am done Am done being the fixer Am done trying to be a good person Am done trying to be the bigger person Am done trying to fit in where am not wanted If things are meant to be they will be Am tired of apologising for my past mistakes Am not going to beg for friendship, relationship or any other thing My hearts gone bad and it won't beat for anyone

The fixer
Dear darling my one and only You make my heart flatter in ways l cant explain How could someone make me feel this way The feeling is unexplainable but it brings joy to my innerself I never understood the power of love until l met you Oh my darling sweetheart My heart has chosen you You have found a perfect spot in my heart You now have the only thing l swore l wouldn't give anyone You have my heart now keep it safe My precious darling

My Darling
Linked by words Binded together by our hearts We are entwined Always forever thats us Nothing, no one or anything can come between us The Romeo and Juliet's love was nothing compared to us Bonnie and Clyde never experienced what we had Till death do us apart those ate just words for some people not us Death can never do us apart For we are entwined and our love is written in the stars Together we build some thing great We are entwined

Entwined
They are scared of you, young woman Do you see how they shiver when you speak How they become furious when you walk in your crown with your head held high Do you see the hatred in their eyes when you become as educated as they are Young women you are the future and they are frightened by that When you put on those gloves and start fighting When you put on a smile as you walk towards your achievements When you put on your heels and stand tall with you head held high They are scared of you young women
