SOLITUDE!

Another blank page lies before me

With muffled and crumbled balls tossed in a bin

What to write about? I fret

I just stare, the mind declines to function

Oh wait, I know

Let me take you to an expedition

An expedition to the depths of my anguish

I sit here at the water’s edge

In great anticipation of you

I gaze upon the stars

Seconds turn into minutes

I lie awake

And you are trapped in my head

Like a lion trapped inside a cage

I dream endless dreams

Day dreams is something I can not escape

The dream of you appears everywhere

Days are pregnant 

yet concieve uncertainty

I get weary of waiting

Noko sekulithuba ndijamile, ndingxangile

Kuhlwile, ayatshona amalanga

Uyakude awele nini umqa kum esandleni

Ingathi kanti iphupha lam seyabaliphutha

I’ve been in this storm for quite some time

Looking, seeking, praying for a sign

Yet I glimpse no sight of you near

So far nothing, I travel blind

How long must I wait

like a monk,SOLITUDE is all i know!
