palesa deejay manaleng Poems

Pushing against a mountain
resting on fire,
slit my writs to watch my pain flow
only to get drenched in water.
...

Craddle me deep within your arms
I suckle on your strong thumb,
Fly me towards the ceiling
catch me as i drop.
...

The scent of your perfume lingers deep within my senses,
I knew it was yours amongst the cigarette smoke.
I heard your voice clearer then the music seeping through the DJ’s fingers
And tasted your lips…..though ours never met.
...

How I wish to vomit my blackness.
To bleach this colour that says shot me as I walk down the street.
That screams imprison me for being hungry.
To peel away this mark that makes you think I am unworthy to be human.
...

Click, Click goes the mouse as my heart skips a beat,
Hoping for a like from my crush.
A heart gives the illusion of interest.
...

I hate you
Her mouth said
As her eyes looked at me with love
...

Ja Baas
Ek kom baas
Like little children my people sang
...

In love
Oblivious of anything else

Your laughter music to my ears
...

All I need is time
To show you that I care

Time to prove that I’m rare
...

Have nothing to say
Wish the wind would blow away
Your pain but sustain all great memories
...
