"thando" poems
Ndivumele juba lam sthandwa sentliziyo yam
ekuseni we langa indi ku balele
incwadi Yothando Yesizulu
(A Zulu Love Letter)
Nguwe be ngi ngo #kiss
incwadi Yothando Yesizulu
(A Zulu Love Letter)
Sthandwa
Ngifisa sengathi ungangibhalela incwadi Incwadi yothando yesiZulu Esho ngemibalabala na ngamabalabala
Axoxa indaba ejulile yemizwa nemicabango Idayimane, ngelo thando lweqiniso
Omhlophe, ngowenhliziyo engenasici Indilinga, ngoba olwethu kalunasiphetho
Oluhlaza-sasibhakabhaka, ngoba wena ucabanga ngami
Unxantathu, ngoba amazulu aphezulu Kanjalo nomhlaba nolwandle ngaphansi bayazi
Onsundu, ngoba kuyitshe kunothile futhi okwemvelo
Njengomhlabathi ongaphansi kwezinyawo zami
Noma ungawu shiya umbala ophuzi Kungani kumele ungithande ngenhliziyo enesikhwele! ?
Ngifisa sengathi ungangibhalela incwadi
Engiyoyigaxa emqaleni
Ukuze zonke izimbali zase maqeleni Ziyohawuka lapho zingibheka
Ngenxa yayo yonke lemibala egqamile Incwadi yothando yesiZulu
Ngobuhlalu bothingo-lwenkosazana Ubuhlalu base mazweni aqhelileyo Minake sengiyoba nentokozo emangalisayo
Lapho ngiphendu-phendula ulimi lwakho
Kancane-kancane, futhi ngesikhulu isineke
Ukuze ugcine usukwazi kahle hle Ukubingelela abazali bami
Ngendlela eyiyona-yona, ngolimi lwesiZulu
Molo sethandwa sawubona ngiya themba ulale ngahle?

You say I'm what you need
Using visuals of what we used to be "Us", trying to cement me to the ground.
right now I know your not what I want
So open your cage , and I'll be taking what's left of my heart with all the little pieces that were left on the floor
I know you said you hate me just to cope , I can't say I didn't care because those words added mist to the once smooth oceans that we now sail opposite
The wars we had were laborious but
leaving you was even more toilsome
At times my soul whispers your name , digesting why I love this silly story of us
I slumber knowing that , that love you had for me turned swiftly to the darkest shade simply 'coz your like a little boy having his terrible two's
You couldn't have your way
Like you said with your pompous inflated head.. 'Your show must go on' , even though you act like you don't get high to fill your empty.
Just when I thought you couldn't reach an all time low
I heard you wrote a song saying:
"RIP , your just a ***** I used to know"

You've Struggled
And Tumbled
In Chena Murume's(White Men's), grasping Hearts.

Deep Into Our Oppressors Feet.
Day-to-day You Lowered
And Waxed To Every sovereign state's Begger.

Sisters & Brothers.

I Feel Alone,
Like A Statue
Living In A World That Is Unknown
_
I feel Ignored,
Like No One Cares-
If I'm Sad Or Bored.
My Life Is Filled With Nightmares
Which Steal My Sleep.
_
Pain Went So Deep,
at Night-time I Soak Under My Pillow And Cry
Asking My Self Quetions With too Many Why's.
What's The To Live For
This World Is So Cold.
_
No Family
No Friends
Just enemies
And rivals.
_
If You're Reading
This Note, Help My Bleeding
Heart.
Because
it's Torn Apart.
_
Depression filling My Soul
Darkness, A Big Black Hole.
No one Can Understand This Pain
Nothing To Lose, and nothing to Gain.
I'm
Just Some Reject From Heaven
To Hell.
_
I wish All Could Go Away
So I could Live A Normal Day.
Oh, God Is So Far Away
Who Can Brighten My Day?
_
My Thoughts Are Unkind
Every Time The Pull Me
to My Darkest Side,
And
If Only The Future I Could See.
_
I Keep Pulling My Self Together
But, Will This Loneliness
Last Forever?
Because
I Wish To Ascape This Sadness.
_
Tears All over My Eyes,
Scars All over My Hand,
Blood All Over My Legs
And Rope Surrounding My Neck.
_
To You Cruel World, You Thought I Was Weird
Sitting The Alone.
You Thought I Was Mad
for They Bullied Me, And I Smiled.
No It Was The Feeling Of Pain
Tickling My Brain.
_
No One Could Understand The Pain Of Orphan
Birth Pains Are Less Than Those Of An Orphan.
I Sit Alone
For I fear To Be Treated
Like Brandon.
_
The Wierd Guy On Generations,
That Coloured Dude
Whose Different From Others
In His School.
On earth We're Treated Like Freaks,
Kids Laugh at us Cause We're Wimps.
_
Death Taste Bitter
But Life Ain't Better.
Suicide Bubbles Keep
Blowing, Wierd Voices
"Join Us Thando, These No-love
In This World For You".
_
"Those Who Gave Birth To You,
Dumped You In ******* Bin
If They Rejected You
Who Will Love You?"

My Pearl
My Air
What you are to me Girl
Words just can't tell
So give me your ears
As I had withheld
What my whole heart felt
Now I will tell
Without no fear
I'll jump into Hell
if that's what it takes
To fight for your love
You are my world
The air I breathe

I Know My words Meanless
My presence Pointless,
Cause I was Never The,
But I'm here when you're Dead.
-
A giant Tree Has Fallen
It's Beauty Stolen.
Guess The World Lost the Part Of it's self
The Beauty In the Heart And beauty in the flesh
-
From Start To your Rest
You've Been The Fighting The White Men.
I wish I was The
Maybe I would CHEER
For You.
-
When The World turn'd against
You, journalist and politics
Put Stains
On You. Those Critics
Never Tear'd You.
-
You stood The smiling,
Cause your Love was so True.
I Hate To Say To you... i was Calling
You Fake Too.
-
During Your Funeral, I caught my self crying
(I'm Like all politians too)
Maybe I'm the fake one: Lying
to the citizens black, Coloured, yellow even blue.
-
Talking, selling, promising empty promises
Maybe their Doing this For richess
Or maybe Just For Fame
To Them Black Poverty Is Just A game.
-
To Make My letter, short
I Hope The Lord Gives you a beautiful spot
So You may Rest,
You were the Best.
Heavens gates surely will Open For You
These are My Wishes For You;
May You Find Peace,
Your Soul Rest In Peace.
-
Maybe One Day will Meet,
And I Say How Sorry I am.
This Note pointless
meanless,
You're a spirit Now
Surely You Cant read it, right?
-
I'll wait for your signal Mama
Please Show Me the sign
You accepted my apologies.
.
.
Rest In Peace Hero
Rest In Peace Qawekazi
Siyohlala Sik'khumbula
Ngoncumo Lobudala
Oluhle
From Thando To Mama.

Kinda Look back when I was Kid,
When I was Free.
I miss being A kid
So Happy, so free.
-
Living Not To impress Anything,
FRIENDS OR ReLaTIVES
Just A bird flying High with it's wings
Spread wide, nothing
to worry about cause It's Free.
-
Not Young, nor Old
At nearly 20's
But Life Is Angry
with Me, i feel like saying
"Why me, i wanna be free!?".
-
My four-year
Bro, walks Naked In the homes,
With No Fear
To laugh'd at Or any
"I wish to Be Like That {free}".
-
Teenage Life Is NOT a Game,
Full OF smoke, full of flames
You get burnt every day-
but i want to be free anyway.
-
I wish to be a kid
again,
I want to young
again.
-
So precious And So Kind,
Not Into truth Or Being lied
at.
Just LIVING the best Out of Everyday
In Anyway,
That won't hurt back.
-
Catch few scars, but heal
Fast,
NoT wounds that are scary to see.
-
Being a kid Is a blessing,
Old a cursing
stage in life.
I wish to Escape
But I can't it's how it should Be.
-
Older we Become, the more we learn
To earn
Our selves some knowledge.
"Teenage life Is a lesson
We wish to escape"
