Evert Benade Poems

I cast my eyes
towards the skies
I look upon a tiny star
as it shines from afar
...

Dis een uur in die more
Gedagtes gaan verlore
In die dieptes van jou oë kontoere
Soos jou skoonheid my betower.
...

You're young, you're free
Embracing life with all your being
You're young, you're free
Grasping to your endless Dreams, (My Friend)
...

Against a wall
I lay my soul

I Raise my eyes towards the skies
...

Close your eyes, hear my heart
Let us not be apart
Give us a brand new start
Towards a joining heart
...

Staring in the distance
Thoughts frozen in a instance
As life passes by,
And dreams slowly die.
...

As I try to find my way
In this uncertain day

A trouble heart will tear me apart
...

As time goes by
We say goodbye
Lets take this clock back one more Time
...

You are the hope in which I fall
Choosing to give you my all
You are the strength in which I stand
Placing my life in your hands
...

My liefling, My lied
My hartklop se beat
Vat my by die hand
My hart is aan die brand
...
