Sunshine Happiness Poem by Zolani Nkomo

'Don't Do Anything Stupid' She Said About This August Unrest As I Was Preparing For Sleep.

'Anything Stupid? ' I Inquired

'I Don't Know Just Be Aware'

'It Seems Like You Have A Great Sense' I Referred To Her Gut Knowing My Wrongs. As If Her Instinct Indicated To My Transgression, Like She Could Feel It When She Held Me.

Maybe Not All Of My Energy Was There

She Tried To Play It Off, Wanting To Delay or Postpone To a Later Date.

But This Was So Important, I Told Her Not Opening Up Would Hinder Our Progress.

'I'm Not Sleeping Until This Is Done.' I Wanted To Bring Peace To My Heart
