Okello Baloyi Poems

Rooting for success while the rain keeps damaging what's left of the roof that I call my sanctuary, sometimes a heart can be cruel because life has only taught one to survive and not to be loved, the only happy memories I have in my mind are of me as a minor, smiling for sweets.

The only time hands were clapped in my home, our eyes were glued to a tv screen during wrestling episode, I haven't done much to regret but my life feels like a tunnel of regrets, you'd be surprised how could one drawn in debts while having better financial education, everything will be okay has replaced our daily prayer.
...

Naked truth can be unbearable, it should be traded with intimacy
I failed to stop taking off my cloths to strangers until there's evidence
Who could've thought, a child in my name?
What will become of me? Or the later
...

Women don't know the evil they might do
My child was denied the right to life before birth
With respect to our ladies
I won't tell you whether to give birth or not
...

Unfolding expansion
I learned the currency language
And my flows ain't nothing but wind
Arrogant was once on my path
...

Wind making sounds, moving anything that could be shaken
Skirmish always grow to be a real big deal
And there I was chasing the speed of water
Without nothing to live for
...
