Koena Mokoena Poems

I live my life to the fullest, /
Because, i don't know what will happen tomorrow. /
I believe that life can change in a second. /
Hence, everything i do is from the best of my ability. /
...

I am proud of the way i grew up, because i ommit myself from bad activities. /
I am famous across the world, but i won't forget my background. /
The fact is in order to ' know where you are going, /
you must know where you are coming from'. /
...

I sacrifice my blood, sweat & tears with my time to make a difference in the community. /
I don't want to escape my responsibility, because i have big plans for the place that made me to be who i am. /
I am not afraid to expose my personal attitude, because i am proud of who i am. /
Hence, i am respected in all kinds of races, in every place, because they show me the true meaning of love. /
...

A real man...believes in his aim, objective & vision. /
A real man is not afraid to sacrifice his time for the one & only. /
A real man knows how to treat a lady. /
A real man is not afraid to admit his weak-points. /
...

I remember when i was young...
I used to be a shy, ignorant & pathetic boy,
today i made it.
...

I believe it is a loss to me if i don't achieve my aim, objective & vision.
The fact is i get up in the dawn & compose my poems,
because i want to be successful as a poet.
I disindulge myself from negative people,
...

I don't have money to pay for the print-outs to use in the music workshop.
I don't have a plan, hence i choose to wait up until i obtain help.
The fact is i hate to steal, because that will ruin my reputation.
I hate to jeopadize my future of being the famous poet across the world.
...

I teach lot of people to ask.
My aim is to embrace the concept behind asking...
I ask people to retaliate in their own way.
It gives me a new experience of what kind of a person you are?
