Andile Mtshali Poems

Don't dare pretend you do not care

I can feel it, you carry it in your air.
...

Your lips taste like opium

Your arms my haven
...

I have seen the vision of the moon turning into dust

Of children running the streets naked with lust.
...

one two three

soon you will see
...

She sits and waits for his kiss

Nothing will give her more bliss
...

I was not perfect in your eyes.

Hence you left me now my days are as cold as ice.
...

I love your hips
the softness of your lips.

I love kissing your hands
...

You are laughing.
you jump up and down and start screaming.
uhhhh i cant stand the sound!
your eyes pierce my soul.
...

They made a good pair.

It wasnt just another affair.
...

Here is my love coloured in ink

This pen and my heart share a link
