Despite My Love I Seem To Flicker In And Out Of Your Life Poem by Pheko Motaung

Like now you're wiser
With bitter knowledge and
Romantic dreams
At your loving best you
Love me like you're loving a god
You tantalize me and you make
Me feel wanted and desired
Ah...Mabel! Mabel!
The shadow of you looms
Large over my feeble self
At your worst you're
The soundless slayer of my heart
You give me the bits and the
Pieces of your heart that I want
You give me the morsels
Of the numerous that the world
Cannot offer me
You break my heart and you make me
Your little plaything
Despite my love I seem to flicker
In and out of your life
End the one sided contest and
Make me believe in you
Show me a blade of your honesty
And let me be the brilliant
Star that shines in you heart
