Hey, will you ever come someday?
Beyond the door where no one stands,
I want to fly away with
that fallen leaf hanging from the corner of the wall.
Your scent sways in the wind—
the gentle smell of summer in Tokyo.
I just wanted you to say, 'Wait for me a little.'
But maybe you'd say, 'You know how I feel, don't you? '
In the cracks of night,
the dream I whispered
doesn't have to reach anyone.
An invisible kindness
gently falls and wraps us softly.
Hey, will I forget someday?
This pain in my heart when I think of you.
Even if time quietly unravels,
something red overflows from the wounds I hurt.
They say that color is gold,
but no—it's a silvery hue tinged with yellow.
I remember the little things we talked about,
even the silent conversations in the time we didn't speak.
In the cracks of night,
a sudden little sneeze
feels like you're badmouthing me.
I've become your allergy.
These untouchable feelings
wander through the air,
and somehow return to me again.
You're surely in the arms of some monster now.
Just the thought of it makes my head feel like it's splitting.
But it's okay.
It's okay.
Because I can love you just as you are.
In the cracks of night,
the dream I whispered
doesn't have to reach anyone.
An invisible kindness
gently falls,
and softly wraps us again.

I miss you,
I miss your good morning texts,
Your messages lighting up my phone,
The special ringtone I had for you,
Calling you mpenzi -
Because that’s what you are,
My darling.
I miss your voice,
Your laughter,
The warmth in your words.
I miss how we spoke of everything,
How we made each other feel alive.
I miss your kind heart, beautiful soul and spirit.
I miss your wild ambitions,
Your endless *** of kindness,
Your relentless singing of love ballads after your favourite drink,
And your desire to truly be a great person.
I miss Kivuli’s sweetest face,
The comfort you both brought me
Whenever I was lost in sadness.
I miss your smooth, dark skin,
Your handsome face,
Your gorgeous body in all its glory,
Your kindness and gentleness.
Your laughter.
I miss how natural we were together -
Effortlessly almost.
Perhaps that’s what went wrong,
Was it too easy, and is life not?
I miss the hope we shared,
The late-night conversations,
And the way your deep voice
Would echo through my heart.
What happens now?
I don’t know.
But I miss you with every fibre of my being.
I haven’t stopped loving you -
And I don’t know if I ever will.
Come back to me, mpenzi.
Come back to us.

Weeks have gone since I last saw you.
Your absence creates the loudest presence.
Every where I look; I see you, I feel you, and I hear you loud and clear.
I miss the way I catch your secret glances.
I miss the sound of your laughter, even with my unfunny jokes.
What happened between us?
Why did you stop coming around?
Did I do something wrong?
These are questions I keep asking myself.
Confused to why without a warning, you stepped out of my life.
I spend my sleepless nights wondering if you're okay.
Are you okay?
Because I'm not!
I wallow in my misery of missing you.
I count ever day, minute, and seconds until the day I see you again;
from a distance and even for a brief moment.
But my heart can only take so much pain that there are times when I feel tired and numb.
Every single day that pass between us apart, the more I feel the need to give up.
Give me the closure that I need
to move on to new beginnings.
And I will give you yours
if that is what you truly desire.
I ask that you free my longing heart from your tight embrace.
Free my pain so I can feel again.
Maybe now is not the time for us.
Maybe there are other people out there destined for us.
But one thing is for sure, you have become a great part in my life.
You've etched your name in my heart and soul.
And those are the reasons why it's hard for me to let you go.
Even in your absence, I find myself hanging on to our tomorrow.

Missing love,
Makes a hole
In your heart.
Turns you hallow.
Missing love,
Breaks you and
Shatters your heart
To pieces.
Missing love,
Makes you feel
Like you could
Fall apart at
Any moment.
Missing love,
Takes you and
Breaks you and
Tares you apart
Till you are nothing.
Missing love,
Keeps you in
The dark, crying
And Sobbing,
wishing and praying.

Loving him was winter
Summer never returned.
Even now that he's gone
For the harsh, cold chill
of his touch,
I still yearn.
I crumble the roses
And cut down the ferns
Praying to an unknown god
That my lovers burning
Chill of wrath will
Once more
Return.

I go through times near everyday
These moments that just when
I dream that day is finally here
To hold you once again!
It's not so long from now till then
It's just a bit more time
I'll be right there to wrap you in
These loving arms of mine!
So hold on tight just remain strong
My love is worth the wait
Just think ahead and plan it out
Let's both anticipate!
'Twill be so sweet when that time comes
Into these arms you'll run
I'll wrap you up and hold on tight
To forever be as one!
This love we share will last all life
Our bond still holding strong
Let's see it through till moment when
Our life on earth is done!!
I promise you I'll hold and keep
You always close to me
I'll show you I'm forever yours
To love you faithfully!
