Evelyn Mokoroane Poems

I buried all.
I buried all, or at least I tried to,
I thought if I did everything to stay away from it
It would do the same to me
...

Happy we are, or at least were;
Now I can't seem to even know where I stand with you;
Its like her presence has blurred my position in your heart.
I lived to make you happy
...

Oh naughty boy where did you come from.
A good girl I was, now you presence formed me;
You transformed me to something so far from who I was.
I don't know who I am any more.
...

Ke kopakopane; ke hloka tharollo;
Empa nthate ketla rarabolleha;
Ehh ke bile lekgoba la dikgupiso ebile kenale mabadi a bopaki;
Empa se nqhelele ka thoko bakeng seo.
