8 minutes to sunrise... I open my eyes and see the white sheets Scarred with the impressions we left upon them the night before. . silently.. They seem abused I can tell that it was a rough night I woke up with bruises Expecting you to wake up and walk out Throwing my heart with excuses... Outspoken ... Silently. . You woke up like a convict... Who had secretly plotted to and killed someone Within their dreams... Secretly. .. Silently.. I try to cage each minute.. For I have things I wish to say to you. .. Words that seemed to have stayed hidden from you.. Baby there's 8 minutes to sunrise Tell me what we're going to do... Time is running out And somehow I am no longer afraid of the darkness With 6 minutes until the sun rises I want to get lost in the midsts of your soul So that my heart can now what It is like to wake up to a beautiful dream 4 minutes 'till sunrise I can see the rays of the sun light Dancing to the rhythm of our heartbeats Tell me how we made through the night. At sunset you told me you love Night came, And you showed me you love me But with 2 minutes before the sun sets I only need you to hold me .. -Thembekile ".Kilay Deh'Poet." Tsaoane
