Yoyama Magwashu Poems

I was a burden to you before I saw,
Nine months down the line you've ripped what you sow and you've let me grow
You were so patient with me even though I was hard to raise
You're were like garden boy cause you've cutted all the toxic plants that were about grow in me
...

3rd season of the year.
The birds are singing a sweet harmony,
With a chant that attracts living ears.
Admiring the bloom of the trees while feeling morning's air.
...

It's hard to find me going to bed with dry, clear eyes,
It's always red eyes covered with warm salty water.
My pillows always give me a shoulder to lean on,
They are not judging me even though when I get up in the morning I left them dirty and wet.
...

Dear Somgaga.
I don't know what you're going through but you need to hear this:
If you held up 11 buttercups in front of the mirror, you'd be looking at 12 of the most beautiful things in the world.
Matter of fact when you appear on the screen, your confidence brightens up my day.
...

I never saw such beauty in my life:
A small dark chocolate beauty,
Brownish eyes with cute lips with no lipstick on.
Her voice is now my favorite sound that I would love to listen to every minute cause it's soft.
...

I don't know why thinking of you makes me smile.
Is it maybe you're my favorite person?
Or is it maybe I want all of you, all the string attached?
Well it doesn't matter cause I'm too busy being yours and, spending all my night reading texts from you.
...

You're my sun when I rain the heaviest, you turn my pain into rainbows of happiness.
I wonder how can I ever stop loving you. When every time I see you, I fall for you again and again.
I love you because in the world full of libraries,
You are a museum full of masterpiece, artefacts and vintage sculptures
...

In this valentine, I want you to kiss me until I forget how terrified I am of everything wrong in my life.
And I only want you. Nothing you can buy me is better than the days with you. Just give me more of that, and I'll be forever happy.
Because there is no one I want more in this world than you.
You're part of me, I can't imagine my life without you.
...

Nothing is more beautiful than you, and nothing is happier than me when I am with you.
If I was a star and you were a star. I would wink, blink and twinkle at you, until the earthlings call it science.
Well. When I see you, stars and rainbows don't make sense, they just pale in comparison to the brilliance you bring into my life.
...

I don't know how to say goodbye. I can't think of any words, because you left with my soul in your fists and my heart in your teeth, and I don't want either of them back. Since my heart does not longer feels like it belongs to me. It now feels like it had been stolen, torn from my chest by someone who wanted no part of it. I sometimes wish I could lose my memories, so I could have a clear mind, so that I could stop longing for the beauty of the future that we had planned together.

Ooh! I did not want you to leave me, perhaps someday I'll crawl back home, beaten, defeated. But not as long as I can make stories out of my heartbreak, beauty out of sorrow
