The self-love buried in her sandy brown eyes
Waiting for the wind to settle down
To have a clear vision of who she is
She's growing a deep rooted tree embedded with self-doubt
Only if she knew her tears are watering the tree
Strengthening her biggest rivalry

I choose to bury my love for him in my heart
In this way I will have closure
Since the grave is within me
Hlelolwenkosi Feb 28
He looked like a cinematic view
Altering my perception of peace
As I could feel his love immerse hugs I never knew my soul needed

Her
Is it still fair
When my personality traits are a compilation of her memories
When I found out colours discriminate
Because why does red look so much better on her
When my heart willingly chose you
But somehow you look so much better beside her
Hlelolwenkosi Feb 28
Your presence feels like slow poison
I'm dying  
As I consume a dose of you daily
Hlelolwenkosi Feb 28
Her tears were seen as aesthetic
They were picture deserving
But never hug worthy
Hlelolwenkosi Feb 27
And the thought of us
Feels like reliving yesterday
Agonizingly impossible
Because today exists.
