Ronny Madonsela Poet Rhyme

The Pact: Murdered By Silence

This thought embedded deed in
my mind like a seed.
A secret pricking its poison
compelling me to scream.
A decision I contemplated noble
indeed.
But magnanimity isn't without its
penalties

My conscience nears dwarfism.
With every blow, as gilt swallows
me whole.
Cold from lies as i am a part of
this mechanism.
Promised that i may never walk
sole

My tears evaporate as I burn
inside.
And red eyes are all that I might
show for my anguish.
Redundant of who i am aside
I have evolved to a beast that i
can't distinguish.

Before long the thought shunts
me.
That i am but a subsidiary
A piece of a puzzle, in this frame
A trivial contract that I now 
burry
