Tinashe Mupedzapasi Poems

The bed is cold and the night is empty
The night is long
Starring at the curtain dancing to the cold night winds
I have nothing to do no words to utter
...

Give me love
And make me feel
Make me feel
And make me smile
...

No more good nights
No more greetings in the morning
All those lies
Now with time they are dying
...

There is a gap between now and the horizon
I am standing in between
Scorching grounds, freezing winds
I am tossed about
...

Ooh sun the lamp of the day
Shine on us, bring a new day
Ooh sunshine the happiness of all
Smile on us and give us hope
...

Let me write about a testimony
Because i'm a living testimony
Some testimonies brings tears to our eyes
Some put smiles on our faces
...

She stood in the corner
Like a new dog in the kennel
Wondering what was going on
And what she was doing there
...

Take a breath
Relax
Time is too fast to chase
Dreams are a burden
...

There are two who will never forsake me
There are only two who will never give up on me
They always encourage me when I fail
One always pick me up when I fall
...

By the banks of Limpopo
There we sat as we meditate our sorrows
Our eyes set upon our motherland
The land we love and call home
...
