Simphiwe Ntozakhe Poems

by: Simphiwe.M.Ntozakhe.

When tomorrow starts without me,
and I'm not there to see.
...

Nginike ithuba ngilobe ngemizwa yami.
Ngilobe lenkondlo ngomqondo wami.
Ngizwa unyembezi luhlengeza ebusweni bami.
Phela mina ngisosizini,
...

Ake ubabuke…….nje,
Badwanguze, Bangiphunga,
Baphuma inqina bangayithola imvelaphi yami.
Bagadla bahlehla, baphinde bagadla.
...

Beautiful eyes open across a pillow top,
It seems for this moment time will stop,
The earth slows and sounds wane,
A frozen moment without stain.
...

Who is the king?
Who is the real god?
I’m seeking the truth from real stories
From real philosophers,
...

Remember the days of darkness and mourning,
The days of crave and grief
The days of conflict and racism, racialism and apartheid.
The days of minority dominating the majority.
...

A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.
...
