Sakhile Junior Mndzebele Poems

I dont want to die now, not when there is so much more I'm yet to achieve. I dont want to die cursing death because I belive that in time, I could have done more.
Yet again, I dont want to die an old man's death, full of regrets and cursing death and why it never came sooner. Being bedridden for years yet all could have ended in seconds, since being bedridden is as good as death because life and time passes you by.

If there is a goddess,
Im sure its you..
Smile so flawless,
and perfectly true..
...

I hope its not a game,
but if it is I won't stop playing.
I hope its not a dream,
but if it is I won't stop dreaming.
...

Oh! I did it again.
Searched for pleasure in sorrow.
I feel it draining all my energy.
Inside me, it seems so hollow.
...

I need some inspiration,
Or maybe some preparation,
I don't have an option,
Than to give my opinion.
...

What if I wanted to keep you forever?
What if letting go brought me a fever?
Because I'd be swimming in a pool of tears.
Never seeing you is the first of my worst fears.
...

My dream is ending,
To a million pieces it's shattering.
It's all saddening,
To nothingness, it's fading.
...

Love is life's challenging aspect,
But fruitful and ecstatic is its product.
How lovely it is when lovers connect.
So strong the wind, the bonds disconnect,
...

I hope it's not a game,
But if it is I won't stop playing.
I hope it's not a dream,
But if it is I won't stop dreaming.
...
