I've been seeing
children breast feeding
their penurious newly borns
While poverty-stricken,
in the pit of their homes.
Others pursue death as their only hope.
It is hell i tell you,
These streets with charcoal
And gun smoke
drove my brothers and sisters
Into a deep dark hole,
where the cry of the lost
was never  heard,
both had no drivers license,
So they smashed on thick walls
during their way back
home.
so we held sermons
and praised, we even worshiped
with faith songs
To harmonies their souls.
_
****, and ****
only paved the way
to the crucial storms,
we woke up yesterday it eroded
the soul out of her,
I tried to perform CPR
on her senseless brain,
but she was too deep to rescue,
This long road leads to lucifer's door
But their smoked minds
knocked maybe twice, or even more.
they couldn't heed from
the morns
Of the demons behind those dark ghetto edges
holding marijuana and silver guns on the other hand,
they hallowed for a hand, but too bad
we were too scared
they were already dead.

In silence through the tender-less night.
Bruised overlay, wounded lips
Scared hips, tortured body
Purple eyelids,
Relating my current dreams
With my  heart tempo,
Which once upon a day light
Like winds
Like red roses, and violins-
On my soul bleeding with new-wedded
Flowering  pigeons.
that year ago stroked
My throat with love smoke
Birthing hopes
Slowly fading away with each knock of sense
Crashing against the walls
Falling like the beauty that use to sway
Men on each street i walked in.
You forged heartwarming words
Through my juvenile ribs,
With just a kiss of yours
My heart jumped, racing.
I one time lost a bit of my heart,
And gave the leftover, on our wedding day.
But i reclaim that was mine.
In this love
I'm no longer defending us from them-
But me from you.  
My youth has been crushed
Lean me you ear, let me tell you above love.

I'm no woman.
But what's the, when a women
Can no longer fear Wild animals,
she finds comfort
On a teddy bear
Which most Men buy on valentines
Just to look romantic.

Fool me, fool you.
Maybe You never knew?
Black men are coming through.

Just thought to tell you,
Don't forget to come true.
Since birth you never loved us.
Hence, we've been educated
Through your systems, we're stupid minded.

Enslaved, jailed in religious
Fairytales,
We chase, Jesus' tales
That disappeared into thin air.

Dark, in complexion;
man on a mission.
A suspect in his own mansion
When will Africa
Be a free nation?

Her smile,
The sweetest pretty lie.
Thando Nov 2018
With tears
In my eyes
I smile,
I cry
And comfort my soul
With lies
"Maybe it's just big dream-
A nightmare
Or something
But beyond cruel"
Life is pain,
With a smile you gain
Enemies more
Often in garments
Of friendship.
Saints ****
Just be holy
While Sinners
Pursue hell.
We live to ****,
You become my competition
I make it my mission
To feed you
to the lions.
So they  may enjoy the meal
While i share the riches alone,
Laughing at mute money.

God is my witness.
I think that-
She's watching over me
As I recite,
Breaking my vocals,
Telling you
Ain't no salvation
Without truth.
As they stood the
Telling you
Traditions are for fools,
And that's true
Cause To them it was new
they were less clued,
hence they were so puffed up
Trying to rip us
Apart from our own origin
You young foes never knew.

These Ungrateful Negros
Wiped away their own,
Just to fit in-
To this thin
White sketched
World
Bombarded with hatred
And a bias society
Only serve the minority
the white community
Not us the inky
Freaks.

Let me finish my craft
As I'm mission ed
To describe his love
Over us
Human kind.
He's the,
Hence I'm always sad
But in the end
I smile like a lunatic
Bliss fed sunnymoon
You find it cute
Over a tooth-smile
But so terribly pieced in side.
Fool me,
Fool you
I play cards too
like a Chief,
I think
Before I do
But as a human being
Sometimes I slip
Off a cliff,
But he grabs my wrist
And smile.
She's my witness
To my unseen weakness,
The sickness
I catch from over doing things-
Like over questioning
His presences.

Because she is the
But I'm unable to prove it
Though he is.
And please
Give him a chance
To love you
Like a mother.

As he loves me.
Cause she does love me.
