Lehlohonolo Selai Poems

With pain you pinned me down
My body you ceased with torment
The sorrows still I taste of our doom
Your smile that reeks of entrapment
...

Once in a breezy morning
Let me pluck joy like a rose
Once in a cheerful manner
Let bees make melody while they rise
...

You push me into the dark
I faltered not in the light
So why in the dark should I start
Like Jerico to fall apart
...

For the man in blue
Let me be cool
For the lady in red
Let me be great
...

Dead to the world I recall I was
When in dreamland I emerged,
Seemingly humble and gentle
And also affable.
...

From the street so cold
With pride too great to uphold
I fell though not so hard as in a wild pond
But right in his hands so warm
...

As a man I died
Right after your face I punched
As a man I ceased to be
Along with the dream we used be
...

The moments we shared
The memories we shared
The mentality we so owned
Were all the fruits our friendship beard
...

On the beach where I calmly sit
Come, find my lap to sit
Stare deep into my eyes not to blink
Stir my peace up gently with your look
...

Time, you lousy being
Give me more of you I beg
Give me just enough to see her blink
Like she does in my dreams I beg
...

Only now do I know what it means
That look in your eyes.
For holding your hand allows me a chance
To journey through your heart, your feelings.
...

I lived when living was a struggle
When people swam in streams of tears
I lived when joy was a miracle
When darkness engulfed earth
...

Fallen are the chains
Swifter than drops of rain
Yet bigger in that moment of pain
Fallen are the chains
...

Dreams grew not in the sun
As so do thoughts in the mind
Varnishing your touch while
Making you of sterner staff
...

Waters flow
Quite swiftly you know
As so your joy did
In the days so old
...

Glamour n grace
Joy n love
Peace in my heart
I'm overwhelmed
...

From the day my heels tasted dust different from yours
That day when our eyes were for the first time
Casted upon different visions all in all,
Lumps of bitterness and distress of a kind
...

Every now and then I seem to hear
The little voice driving away that little fear
The wonderful words that always bring hope near
Every now and then I seem to hear
...

The Best Poem Of Lehlohonolo Selai

Walking Tall

With pain you pinned me down
My body you ceased with torment
The sorrows still I taste of our doom
Your smile that reeks of entrapment
Oh you took your shot to break me down
Yet still, I walk tall

Was I a jerk to love you then
Perhaps in your mind indeed I was
Praising you and the marvellous works of your hands
Was I a fool to open my arms
To you and your mockery for love
Indeed I was, indeed I was

So my gut I fixed at last
The one you so thought to have demolished
Pain makes me uneasy on the crest
For your presence renders a taste so similar and harsh
So my gut I polished for this part
To take my stand and walk tall

Yes I walk tall and free and sober
For your presence was quite addictive a substance
Plunging me in the deepest slumber
Plunging me in the farthest corners of aloneness
I am free
I walk tall

I chased hope to the extent of time
Knowing little of the new territory called freedom
Interception has finally met with your reign over me world
To carry me out on his arms to freedom
I chased hope at last to this route
Where with hope I walk tall

Let time polish my look
For my heart beats with new melodies of joy
Let my swag thrive now and for good
For shabbiness and I are on the verge of a nasty divorce
I am free at last
I walk tall
