Lies That Heal Tomorrow Poem by Thato Maluleka

It’s hard to live a lie, sometimes you smile when all you want to do is cry.
It’s hard to ask why, cause the answers that come can be critical to one’s mind.
Sometimes It’s hard to live a lie, when all you wish for is to just roll over and die

Sometimes It’s hard to ask why, cause why seems to become rhetorical after a while.
There are days when I wish I could just die, parish-evaporate to the skies or like ashes vanish into the atmosphere and forever burry my lies…

and there are times when I see through humans eyes what it truly means to be alive, smile, walk for miles, spend time with loved ones, embrace another soul, love without any costs, breathe without fear, miss your presence here, cry without sorrow, kiss for today and tomorrows, live life to the fullest without the slightest worry.
And then I exhale, and say tomorrow will be a better day.
