The Path I Choose

Demand a love so big Oh Yee! don't succumb to lips It makes you choke now don't get jealous of me Because I'm successful and you are not Don't envy my time Patience is a virtue Your time will come For slowly slowly we blossom No more will we have to ask... What do we do? How long will you play with fire Untill your heart has no flesh left to burn The only thing that bothers me is your jelousy Ooh no! forgive my luck For this little life We walk paths our own way Hopping it will make them feel better Instead it makes them feel worse

Muyesa, NKOSI iSikelela! It could be man or woman who envies you. Competition for earnings in a "marriage" could be good ... but how do we keep competition HEALTHY? Your poem raises that vital question for me. I love Stanza#3.
