Dead dreams
It brings tears to my eyes
To see our dreams drained
Down shallow graves.
A Dream that never faded like
Blood stains on our skin
Graveyards swell like wounds
Caused by the wars of our
Struggle, we all had a dream, now We have learnt to dig graves in our dreams
And watch our dreams fade into the blank spaces .
we have become prisoners in our on mind
Many heroes hidden beneath
The wings of death never saw
The rising sun of 2019
Where is the voice that Stopped gushing rivers of Blood?
we have become vision impaired
They are millions ways to die but i believe the saddest of the more is die over and over again
And no i dont mean being born again
Where is the spirit of
Ubuntu that we left behind?
We all brothers and sisters,
This is not what we fought for.
