Bukiwe Tiyane Poet Acrostic

Dear Future

I know how it feels to sleep with an empty stomach.
I know how it feels to have nothing.
I know how it feels to be rejected by my own neighbours.
I know that painful feeling of hearing them saying "there she comes, hide your plates."
I know the pain of going to school with bare foot
I know the pain of losing my loved ones.
 

Now Dear future, 
Let there be no more sorrows.
No more death.
Please be nice.
