Cement grass

Samuel Potsane

Ways I adore humans, supersede people.

And artists—who can colour my soul more than they do?

I still avoid what gives me life, knowing it can also take it.

I still try to understand why these paths undress you, then dress you again.

I am stranded, yet my feet never fail me.

    The thrill of the edge is also the most dangerous. A lovely write

  • Waiting for Silence

    This feels very real and personal—it captures that quiet strength of moving on without drama, just dignity and grace. Nicely put.
