Le Prostitute

February classes commence
Test weeks and boring lectures.
Suction of capital from extravagant life,
Nite clubs, clothes and cheap lipsticks.
Vibey and naive matriculants want to 'enjoy life'.
Come March with no-strings attached.
"Bonjour messie.
Want a Louis Vuitton inexchange for le cookie?
Your seventeen-year old cookie?

Mid-month hunger pangs.
Saliva flooded mouthwalls
(The Tsunami strikes again).
All she wants is a man to take care of her,
Hemlines are getting shorter.
Plastic hair is 'growing' longer.
All you need is money.

He walks in like a cunning jackal
Approaching its weak prey.
Jows like a movie star,
Skin tailored with threads and buttons of Armani and Guess(es)
Wanna see my cabriolet?
She sees a BEEtypobrother.

"Bright future, secure mate.
This cake may be hard to bake again,
But what choice do I have?
I want a man with a car, town house and a secure job.
I won't settle for less."

Selling yourself cheap.
Baby girl, you ain't nothing but a prostitute.

he held

in his arms he held me
under his wings he kept
safe from the unforseen dangers of evil
in his arms he held me
under his wings he kept me
in my path he led me
a light that shines forever
in him i confide
in him i draw my streght
in him i find shelter from those who are after my soul
in GOD i trust

Love

Oh Love, precious love
Oh how you woo me daily
Surprising me with feelings unbearable or unthinkable,
Making all within me submissive to your needs

Weak by one touch,
Emotions transcends through body and mind.
Oh u must be sent from above.

Holding me when I’m in need,
My Shoulder to cry on,
Blind you have made me.
Yet happier than ever

Please stay by my side,
Don’t stop this feeling.
For it allows all to be so conspicuous.
All to flow and intertwine.

Building a house,
That no wind can blow down.
Inseparable you have made two.

Making known one can never be,
For two expresses you better.

With You

Within you I sense nature's feeling.
An inch of the setting sun
Settling behind the rusty and quiet Namibian dunes
Wild open skies,
I'm wild open
Blow life to sounds of the wild.
I am listening,
With every grain of my being,
With every opening so that we can be,
To the colours and callings of the fire that ignites us so we can burn.
For this life primed by passion,
Discouraged by fear,
Untainted by jealousy,
For I am with you.

To hear the sounds of the night,
Crickets teaching Zulu dance,
Lava warming our silhouettes.
You stare at my longing and spoke to my wishes.
Wiser eyeballs reach climax and thy tongue confesses state secrets.
For I am not alone
I am with you

Take me to the clearest  skies above
And pick me the endless love of all.
Like the Libran shadow lighting thy Gemini skin,
I surrender with cold showers of sweat.
These beads of salted water
Have the anticipation and the ambition to undress
Wrecking my arteries.
Drawing you closer,
Pounding my clitoris to unexplained motions.
My breasts so tender,
As the offspring, I sit you on my lap.
Breatfeeding the beast. Breatfeeding your hunger.
Nurturing our lust, giving me hope to love,
To my one and only.
For I am not alone,
I am with you

L.O.V.E

Love came knocking on my door
Opened the door and let it in
Volunteered my heart to it
Escaped my parents' teachings for it
Heeded its fruity appeal
Unbothered by what others said
Roaming in the dreams long held secret
Trouble came when love escaped her heart
Sadness filled my whole way of life

your smile

When my days turn to nights
And my nights sleepless
When the sun shines no more
And the rain clouds gathered

You smiled

My wounds turned into scars
And a new leaf was opened
My fears into inspiration
And I started to dream
My nightmares into fairytales
And I lived
Because you smiled

When the sun no longer shines

When the sun no longer shines,
all you do is cry.
the smile out your face kills you inside,
but you cannot show it because of pride.

When the sun no longer shines
You try to rise but your bruised ego and confidence just makes you fry.
You good with people because your hurt inside you brilliantly hide,
but inside, you all alone and the pain to yourself you can no longer hide.

When the sun no longer shines
All you do is cry.
Your empty body can now only gasp out empty smiles,
because inside, your crashed soul cannot bare the pain anymore.

When the sun no longer shines
Your heart is longing to fit in and socialise
but fear and dented ego won't let you rise
Now you know your heart inside just dies.

You move up and down with an empty soul
A "black zombie" might fit your description

But why me? you ask yourself
The real answer is within you, some might say,
but you cannot get to it because you're too scared to rise and shine

All you ever wanted was to smile and shine both inside and out
but the demons inside your soul won't let you do it.
They've drown those abilities when the sun set,
now it's no longer shinning,
and so are you…..

When the sun no longer shines
all you do is cry

When the sun no longer shines
all you do is fry

When the sun no longer shines
all you do……  is die inside.

The Gallery

Emotions scattered,
On a blank canvas,
Adorned with paints,
Somewhat abstract,
As you lose yourself,
In the colours of your many thoughts,
Your vision briefly obscured,
From hours of concentration,
As you attempt to put together,
A picture of understanding,
Your Passions,
Your Fears,
Your very being,
On display,
For all to see,
Yet hidden away,
In the complexity of your feelings,
The complexity of this Art,
Art of Living,
Art of Loving,
Art of Dying,
Appearing before you,
These paintings FOR SALE,
But no value assigned,
Yet they hang,
And continue to hang,
In the Gallery,
Of your Soul

Amazing Love

At your sight
my heart gallops
for the prize
of your love.

At the sound
of your voice an
avalanche of emotions
flows into my heart.

Your footsteps
become drum beats
that cast me
into a trance of love.

My heart sings
with joy when
you smile and
dances with ecstacy
when you laugh.

Free Spirit

As a free spirit my body and mind would dance the fields
Full of joy and happiness run over fresh grass of green
But slowly as time wore on my feet become leaden
Slowly they became rooted in the clay beneath
Until one day I was rooted where I stood
My arms and body turned to stone

But then came another free spirit prancing around my leaden bows
Flirting through my heavy branches laden with fear and worry
And every time she came along my spirits would soar
My soul brighten at the love and happiness around
But sadly she would disappear every so often
Leaving my leaden branches to sag

And in all these times of loneliness my heart would yearn for my spirit to return
One day she came so briefly and slowly flitted away to a distance
She beckoned for me to come, to join her dance
My feet filled with fear and trepidation tried
Slowly they would move a step
A slow creep to freedom

Finally my desire moved away completely a whisper in the distance
She wanted and willed me to move so far so fast so alone
My feet moved but a few inches, a tiny step
And then a bit more ever closer and closer
I stood between my roots and my love
I could not move and called for her to fetch me

I stand here too scared to go back to scared too go ahead
Rooted once again calling to my love
Come fetch me come make me move
I need the hand and heart to pull me
To move me into her dream
Will she come get me?
