Thabitha Marakalala Poems

Let me be

I have seen your tears
Heard your cries for that someone that atleast cares
...

Letter to my future hubby

To the puzzle of my heart
Inspiration to these piece of art
...

He loved me there..

He fell inlove not with my matted face
In my arms his soul found a hiding place
...

May never know

I fell for you
The first time I laid eyes on you
...

Paint my heart for you
I know am not the kind
That talks much of my mind
I know my shyness
...

I scanned through your eyes to find love..
It was there but buried deep in a pile of fears..
I scanned through your heart to find your smile..
It was there, buried deep within your flooding tears..
...

Lynched, tortured and raped her tears fell in silence
She lay on that dark cold corner, trying to make sense of this violence
Taken so far away from home to this cold alien islands
On that strange sad face of the bleating moon She painted her reliance
...

True love

You don't bring me flowers
You don't promises the sun
...

He may not come from a perfect home
In broken faces, worn out heart he roam
Peace he seek
Hear his silence speak
...

Picture

His lips so nice, so soft
They were designed to drive me crazy at all cost
...
