I closed my mouth and spoke to you in a hundred silent ways
Stared deep into your melanchony  eyes and saw a million possibilities
Saw an absurd galaxy,
The deeper the glance
the more i saw your scars,
stories you wont tell,
but those which define you

Its the way you hold my hand that had me looking deeper
for peices of you,
the ones you put away
The way your mind wanders when i look into your eyes.
You are a deep thinker,that seldom lets their thoughts run free
Find comfort in your thoughts then find comfort in me,
Only then will you set your mind free..

Wear your heart like a sweater not some bulletproof vest
Because the love you exude is forshadowed by deep-seated insecurities.
The warmth you posses comes out in bits and spatters...

You keep holding back when all i want is your all
Show me the shards of your broken heart
Give me your unrefined love,your broken heart;
let me see your cuts and heal your wounds

Your vulnerability hides behind your voice
The words you stutter upon
ans the things you sometimes say
And each time it shows
It draws me closer to you

Sometimes you hold me tight and i feel those emotions raw,
your heartbeat a few paces faster than mine but in sync with the stream of thoughts running through mind.
ai listen hard for every heartbeat and pray not to miss a beat
because it speaks a language  of its own,
and speaks louder than any word that could leave your mouth.

That look in your eyes,when you stare at me like im a heavenly sent curse,
Not too long before you quickly look away
Too scared too look perfection straight in the eyes,
or the reality is too hard to face
Too good for you to make sense of
so you look for the bad
Lure your mind to think of the unimaginable
I sense you are used to things that arent real
you spend most of your time second guessing me as a decision

You have so much love to give,but you cannot take
You cant run away from whatever happened to you
But dont be afraid of the unknown,
run into my arms
Maybe there you will find solace...

Exhibit A
Serwalo Manchwe Nov 2016
From escapy writing,to flowing with the winds of life.This is a goodbye letter to the girl I once was.

An Ugly caterpillar wanders upon the wonders of the world,before she turns into a beautiful butterfly.The winds of life have blown me to a place,a warmer place,where my heart sings and soul whistles.Love takes over life..

This should've been a five page letter,but who cares..

This is Goodbye..

— The End —
