Aftermath Poem by Anele Potelwa (Unpublished)

It becomes a figment
A life upon a shadow
The dark shades tell the pain
Of a tale not so fairy
And motions raise emotions
Caution raises suspicions
A day longer than history
It tells a story of hurt,
It tells a life of tears
It tells a dream deferred
It tells once upon a time
But now
Its over!
Dont look back,
Enjoy the life ahead
Mould happiness
Like history had done
Its a new life, new friends,
He is your new lover
She chose you! And you gave in.
Yes its a figment, but live it!
