cebolenkosi kubheka Poems

Today treat me like a criminal
sentence me to life
without parole,
If being black is a crime
...

As I look in the mirror
I saw a reflection
Whom I'm suppose to know
But I was clueless
...

My heart is not
A flight
My body is nor airport
But, each time I see you
...

Precious lord take me by the hand
take my hand
take me home
It's strange I woke up
...

ukhona ozayo, eqinisweni usefikile
zithandwa zami phendukani
shintshani ukwenza kwenu
ukuphela kwesinakho sekusondele
...

As you cry yourself to sleep
Tonight,
At least finally you know
the truth
...

Dear Queen Of My Heart
I can stand at the tip of a mountain
and begin to shout how much I love you
But, it's entirely up to you,
...

Noma izithukuthuku zami
seziwela phansi okwenja
noma sengikhale zoma
kodwa ngiyazi umnkenenezo
...

Bengithi sesiqedile nje
okwami nawe bengithi
sekungumlando
yini wanyonyoba nje,
...

you need money
to buy what you need
But remember some items
have no monetary value
...
