Narrow minds plague our streets
Ignorant views and empty arguments
Hearts filled with hatred for no reason

Are we not a country that fought for equality
Has the long walk of freedom not been walked for us
Did I misunderstand the meaning of Ubuntu

What happened to love, peace and empathy
The simplicity of an act of kindness
Has fear swept all your morals away?

They bleed when they are cut
They cry when they are sad
We breath the same air
Laugh at the same jokes
and even dream the same dreams

We are the same
It's not even about colour
How is their black different to yours?
brother hating brother
They too are Africa

Soften your blows
Try on their shoes
Its hurting them
and it will hurt you too

Again thou passest-by
Like a staggering waves
Yet thou forsakest me;when I drew nigh
And left me
Alone in thy wilderness of love
To wander in the midst of scornful demons
Prowling through my heart
And pestering my soul
Out of my being

O,dearest
But why dost thou abhor me like these?
Like a ***** *****
Beggary of thy heed
Why dost thou wheeze me with thy sight?

But why;why dost thou taint my spirit?
Like a piece of scrap
Has mine appeal dim wholly?
Has wrinkles cloack me fully?
What about my breast,are they dangling?

Leer through my eyes
And pore my heart
The golden treasure;thy troth to grasp
Is swollen
Full of pain but empty

O,Dearest
Dost thou yen to **** me
Because I've fallen in the abyss
Of thy love?
Now I hate thee so much
But all I do is to love thee same
I love thee so much
But all you do is to bring me shame

Now be a man
And tell me
If thou hast had enough already
Trust me I shall go

O,Dearest

There is a Lady in my head.
She has been there since Easter.
She moved in before I even noticed.
She has Tiger green eyes, red hair
and dangerously voluptuous curves.
Since she arrived I can't sleep;
days and nights, awake and not
are blended into a fine mist.
I have lost Twenty pounds without trying.
I wander around in a puppy dog fog
like some drooling, smitten 17-year-old.
I listen to music I haven't heard in decades.
I write poems even I can't understand.
I experience lust that consumes like ******.
The world around me seems to be fading.
Books no longer speak my language.
There is a luscious Lady in my head.
She does all these things to me and more.
And I never, ever want her to leave.

Never let me in.
I'm the curse that will end you.
If you let me have my way, I will tear you apart.
My failures will cast impending  darkness
Into that little heart you wear on your sleeve.
My venomous words will tear you limb from limb.
Its a cycle.
Over and over.
My psychological problems that you blindly keep falling for.
Its a cycle.
Over and over.
