Siyabonga A Nxumalo Poems

Not because im black.
But because my heart warms
And tears run down my face
When i think about AFRICA.
...

Dusty roads greeted me
With a smile.
Welcoming me back,
I'm home,
...

You are my brother,
Even though we're
Miles apart.
...

I am unique, an irreplaceable human being.
The first me and the last.
I am God's creature, no one will ever replace me.
...

The sound of your voice
Echoes in my mind day and night,
Its like a sweet lullaby.
...

I though it was triumph.
I rejoiced thinking
Our suffering was gone.
...

I can smell the
Nice scent, of a
Freshly cut grass.
...

I was born to be a dark horse,
Not a misfit.

I was born to be a hero,
...

Hours passed by,
Days quickly ran by,
Weeks waved their goodbyes in a hurry,
Months slowly went by, smilling and fading away.
...

It is only a phase,
Like clouds tomorrow
It will be gone.
...
