A book without a cover
Garth Rakumakoe said:

So much subliminal identity message in this write, one can tell it\'s more than just about a book... How quick we are to assume by mere appearance, and how wrong we get it many a times... Insightful.

what a study in our self-deluding
human condition
we\'re all so eager to belong, to share
this solitary life thing, we experience
(without a guide or playbook)
with another, that often we invest
so much energy
in just trying to ignore all those read flags
so evidently clear, from that very first encounter:
\'I welcomed your flags like a “welcome home” banner.
Your home was my heart, that you intended to shatter.

Here, let me take those flags, I’ll turn them into bunting.
We can celebrate our happiness even if we are fronting.\'

\'His hands around my throat is love, at least that’s what I thought.

My independence scared you, as you had none of your own.\'
(so many memorable lines
More power to you! dear Poet
and please, try to ignore \'the noise\'
see
for some literary ambition
is an affirmation of their defunct intellect
and so to massage their ego\'s
they go around trying to bully
people on poetry sites
assuming, they\'re easy targets
for their keyboard warrior spineless existence
simply because
we dare to share our feelings and thoughts, boldly..
glad to see your shut them down
but I think most here at MPS
are generally more inclusive
and have a genuine zeal
for encouraging people)
stay strong!
the right one will come along
