Here You Waited Too Long For Me To Love You Poem by Pheko Motaung

Here you waited too long
For me to love you and you
Could tell with your trained
Eye that I was longing to be
Held tight and be loved and
Now you have taken my love
You have fled back into
Yourself the house is so
Empty without your pervasive
Presence and the presence
That comes to glare at me in
Sleep is like the tomb of your
Ghost come back to haunt me and
Make me regret why I refused to
Acknowledge the lyric streak
Of the lurid silent evil in you
