nat.(afrikaans)
Luke Swanepoel Oct 2017
reëndruppel, reëndruppel
val van die hemels
reëndruppel, teerdruppel
my hart vir vergifnis bedel

reëndruppel, veerdruppel
op my hart val sag
reëndruppel, meerdruppel
'n storm in jou mag

reëndruppel, keerdruppel
wag, hy kom nou
reëndruppel, leerdruppel
'n brood gebak, steeds rou
This poem is in my native language, Afrikaans, unique to South Africa, and just translating it won't do you any good.

drugs.
Luke Swanepoel Oct 2017
sacrifice your body for
the freedom of your mind
see what you choose
not what's in front
reality is not what you see
but what you cannot.

bitter is death
chasing you
existing when you aren't
yet he does not ****
only delivers
to him, unnamed.

pity.
Luke Swanepoel Dec 2017
the cry of a piteous man
knocks
as he begs for saving
release from me
the cancer by which he is enslaved
**** your darlings
Inspired by the movie, **** Your Darlings.

end.
Luke Swanepoel Oct 2017
bitter is death
chasing you
residing beside you
yet he does not ****
only delivers
the truth
to him, unnamed.
