My name is musa mukelwa simelane, born in 1990-29-01. Born and raised by the streets of my village. Writing had always been my hobby, thought the spark and flames descended when I was towards my teen years and it was later rekindled towards my high school life. The life I lived on the streets inspired me to fight and paint my future with words. My life was not flourishing in reality but once I had a paper and a pen I could paint my self as anything. Poetry became my therapist, poetry become my remedy. In poetry I am me.
On my gloomy days
When my soul had, endured it all.
I sit beneath the essence of nature, curve along with the rivers of my village.
...
Brokenness
A needle with a thread,
Stitching my heart particles into one again,
...
millions of fights I've recorded with you,
Deep bruises that still bleeds even today,
Echoes of harmful words that corroded my sensitivity,
Cold nights, with rough blowing tongues,
...
we both know that this will end,
We are both certain that we would never last,
No matter how much flames, we have for each,
But this, will never last,
...
