Trial Poem by Khumo Mhlanga

Trial



Trial
Loving you feels like -
Interrogation of my heart.
Cross-examined in the fire
Of your complexes
Badgered.

My heart should as evidence suffice...
I'm not attempting love
You can't work your way to a destination
Already reached

Scarred by battle -
Fighting invisible enemies.
Tired of complications

Love is the intricate simplicity
Of a blooming flower
Hummingbird wings in mid-air...

Love is here
It just IS...
