"rosebank" poems
I remember the night we were in Rosebank
It was cold enough for my light skin to shiver
It was cold enough for me to feel your warmth
The world was rotating at a rapid rate
Only the power of your beauty made it stand still
The night which seemed to go on for forever
Your hand in mine
We possessed the secrets to eternal happiness
The softness of your kiss
Created a spark which left the whole planet in flames
Slowly burning
Leaving the whole universe in awe
The sun
Too timid to make a return
The night which seemed to go on for forever
To the rest
This night will always be seen as an ordinary night
To some
This night will not have even happened
But I constantly get flashbacks of this night,
Especially when I ignorantly smoke a cigarette
Trying to reignite the passion once felt
Trying to set the planet aflame, once again
But these memories are slowly killing me
Piece by piece...
Leaving ashes which mark the emotions of nostalgia
The night which seemed to go on for forever

I'm not suicidal and i'm not depressed.
I'm just living a fast life and giving God the rest.
Poetry's been my muse,right from the start.
So I wanna tell you a little something right from the heart.
I'm not here to waste your time,bother you or be annoying.
But have you noticed how many hearts that you people have been destroying?
Instagram,Qooh.me, Twitter and Facebook.
Are the platforms,y'all are using to leave people's kids scared and shook.
Yes,they may have tripped,annoyed you a little bit.
But for you & your squad to attack them on Facebook,
Just makes you look like a kid.
I'm tired of seeing these exposure pages,
these **** distribution rampages.
I'm tired of seeing these shady qooh's,
and this pestering of people for ages.
Have you not reached an age where drama is pathetic and you'd waste your time trying to be cruel?
I wouldn't say I've never bullied,and I wouldn't if I were you either.,
Cause we both have seen many incidents,and at most are serious Instagram readers.
To be in Rosebank on Saturday with squad is lit,
But to expose the girl who sent nudes is not.
Cause when that girl kills herself,and her parents attack you furiously.
At school,I wonder who'll be the hit.
I know I've been talking for a while now,
And you know where I'm trying to get,
But you should still be trying to wonder how,
Down the line,there'll be no more qooh me accounts left.
I'm trying to say please watch yourselves,
Be humble,kind and sweet.
Make your parents proud.
Don't throw your dreams onto the streets.

I don't know where to start,
As I write this from the heart.
And since the day you left us,
We are bleeding from the heart.
We only met so recently ,
Four years ago in fact.
You came to visit on Christmas Eve,
Danced in the yard with Tsietsi
I still don't know what happened,
We still think of you every day
I could not attend your funeral
I wanted you here to stay
Bandile I'm sorry,
Is all I can say,
I can't write without crying,
Pain doesn't go away
Such a huge person,
With such a huge heart,
With such a huge smile,
And a voice that is still heard
So full of life,
You filled us with life too,
Your happiness, optimism,
Philosophical you
But Bandile I remember
So terribly terribly well
The night of that phone call
And how the world just fell
How could this be true?
We saw you last weekend
You talked to me about dying,
But it wasn't part of the plan!
After patching you up last year
With a hole in your head that day
I always worried,
But not you; life's too short you say
And then you left us
Nobody knew what to do,
A dark cloud over Soweto
A community heartbroken, it's true
People carried on,
As funerals require,
Maybe you gave them strength,
But I've never seen people so tired
The unanswered questions,
Keeping our wounds open,
Unable to accept or believe,
Easier to pretend.
For me that's what happened
I pretended it wasn't true
It was so impossible.
Anyone, but not you.
You are full of life to me
Calling me "Emmerentia"
And I think you always will be
A beautiful image forever
I have so much to tell you,
But your philosophy sticks with me
I try to use it to help me
I see how it set you free
You went before your time
Never came to eastern cape
We had so many plans,
Then in seconds they evaporate
I think we all feel the same
And we probably always will
We wanted to speak to you one last time
To hear your cheerful voice
Bandile you are such a good friend,
A brother, a father too,
The kind gentle giant
Is how we remember you
It still seems unreal
At least for me it does
But I didn't want to say goodbye
Where would we put all the tears?
Stoicism kept you strong
The one comfort we may take
Knowing you'd say "that's enough"
"No more crying", "let's just dance"
I cannot finish this poem
Because there's too much to say
You live on with all of us
And forever you will stay
Bandile we all love you
Orlando West, Rockville,
Rosebank as well as Soweto
Will never be the same without you
With love always from the bottom of my heart, I write looking at mount Ararat. Finding the peace I needed to start.
For you Bandile.
Or as iPhone called you " ban dyl zondo!"
You're so right....life is short.
💔🙏😥🥀⛰️🏔️🌠🕯️🕯️🕯️
