Kholofelo Malemela Poems

Hey buddy,
I know this should grow old
But I miss you still.
I look for you in every being I meet
...

Gone too soon

2012/11/14
Yes you could've been 23 by today
...

Eleven years ago on this day my world was overwhelmed by shatter
The news of your passing had reached my ears
Although was I only but nine, my soul was shook and a piece of it derailed
...

Prior the beginning of time, a soul inhabited these fields
Twenty one years earlier, born into a home of a mere woman and a man
A beautiful well nourished soul

Throughout the years, no other soul could compare
...

Dear father
If only you knew how incredibly special you are.

Your presence lights up every other day.
...

This is what my eyes have showed me.

I've seen a woman beat down by a man,
drama, violence, rape and torture
...
