Thabang Ngoma Poet Rhyme

None

I’m my father’s bone
Like father like son
I’m my mother’s joy
Yes, I’m a mama’s boy

I’m Petronella’s lover
Her partner, under cover
Her answer at the end of the phone
When she means to moan

I’m Peter’s best friend
His mentor and confidant
We go out with friends
I’m theirs on the weekends

I’m never alone even on my own
I’m attached to everyone
To myself I’m unknown
To me, I am none

In me, there's so much to uncover
I'm hard, but fragile like a flower
I'm shallow and deep like the ocean
Everyday I search for Thabang (this noun)

I’m something to someone
I’m not my own person
How can I be me
When I am in spite of me

I exist for more than just me
I’m everything to all that I must be
I’m a member of this team
A part of thier dream
