LIFE: TSHEPO MBHELE

LIFE IS JUST LIKE THE DARK
IT LOOKS SCARY EVEN THOUGH IT DOESN’T BARK
PEOPLE ARE NOT SCARED OF THE DARK 
BUT THEY ARE SCARED OF WHAT IS IN THE DARK

YOU KEEP ON WALKING UNTIL YOU FIND THE LIGHT
YOU MUST MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS 
UNTIL YOU REACH YOUR FINAL DESTINATION
BECAREFUL NOT TO TRIP OVER WHILE ON YOUR JOURNEY

IT IS NEVER EASY TO GO IN THE DARK
BUT LUCKILY YOU GET STREETLIGHTS
THEY ARE THERE TO GUIDE YOU
THEY SHOULD BE YOUR PILLAR OF STRENGTH

YOU SHOULD HAVE A LIGHT WITH YOU
BECAUSE THERE ARE LOT OF DANGEROUS THINGS ON THE WAY 
THE DARK IS NOT SCARY,IT’S THE THINGS IN THE DARK
AND THAT IS LIFE
