Still. Poem by Mishack Mchunu

How weak I am to let you go just like that
How strong do I have to be so to be with you?
All the promises you made built a wall to my heart
And you jumped it and turned everything that I believed to be true,
To a ruthless lie that made me what I have become now.
You took your love away from me but I couldn’t take mine back
The blood that runs through my veins is as white as snow
For you stole my heart and you never left even a single track
Oh no! The love I have for you keeps growing stronger
The tears I cry for you they fall but never dry
The pain couldn’t kill but left me talking to my self,
The memories make me not to accept that I see you no longer
Going on without you it’s a suicidal mission but I can’t die
I never thought this day would come. What did this could be an elf!
