Mpho Leteng

cry of a heart

fragments of my heart falling apart at the seams;

i crawl towards the fading light,

in my mind logically interweaved thoughts of my parents lost identity

a false believe they held from the craddle to the grave

i uncover stories they never heard

for fortune favors only the brave

 

i've seen better heads on nickel beers!

she told me what i do is a leap in the dark,

i can't rear a false identity

within my heart resides pain big around as a molasses barrel

in my mind thoughts and ideas quarell

but accepting that this is who am i will only be a theory for the lost
