Recollections of childhood
when life was simplistic,
brings to memory, days 
filled of toilsome work
and long hours.
Yet in its own way, bestows

Hyperventilating

So dwaal ek rond in die lewens gang 
vol van verlange en oral teen di mure

Ek wou nie wees als wat ek kon 
wees,
Ek wou nie meer 0800 gedoen het

Maar ek moes, om 'n beter

Had time be for leisure, 
The orchard's shade shall serve its purpose. 
Were it be for the stretches of time - 
Our loins shall melt in rhythm. 

Had she be forgiven, this moment, 
For despair...

a concession stand and sell the

Trying to find Light in life, walking on sharp knife, darkness everywhere is seen..
Seeing families, moving in valleys, I'm lost in the field green

Screaming of grief, nobody providing...
