Graceless Disband Poem by Dennis Mzwakhe Pitso

Graceless Disband

Rating: 3.5


Dear Non-believer
Reconcile if this signifies as a break-up; I ink this intensity as a wake up
You left me delicate with your love-fever
So here I was craving for your affection
My soul was left on the edge of a broken heart
Love is the key word & I was just trying to spell it out
Unaware that I trapped myself in the cage of the devil
Humanity abandoned...reciprocity divorced
What she thinks and feels it's only evil
Psychopath holding a victorinox trying to get her cut
So I am left bleeding and wounds unstitched
Perspective distorted I now think I am bewitched
'Love in the air'...I thought I was gliding
You were my adventure, so on the fast lane I was happily riding
It was not my intention to commence on the route to self-destruction
Victim to judgement I became with my shallow eyes
I didn't realise that you were just an illusion
In the cemetery of passion I resurrect with indifference
The moments created remains in my explicit memory
I just hope that you will have flashbacks when you resonate
Yesterday we were moon-walking with the stars
Today we are crawling with our knees on the ground full of broken bottles
I married myself to the hope that 'You are the one'
But now I effortlessly detach myself from that perception
Feeling of Isolation I generated from your fake passion
In a blurred-mode I proclaimed you as my desire
Fibres of my soul are burning because I didn't realise that you are a wild-fire
You had my heart racing like a crazy sprinter
Like a cold season passing by...Goodbye winter
To me you are just an hour past by...Deserted in my future
Since every cadaver is replaced by a new born
This is goodbye, please don't mourn
