Kefilwe Nungu Poem
People come and go,
So is the clock ,keeps on ticking,
Now the danger of them all,
Memories!
Memories of you and someone ,
You will never see again
Someone you will never touch again,
You will never laugh and smile with,
Again.
They are planted in you,
Death is very tragic,
So heartless.
Death !
You are very dangerous
I am scared of you
Dear Death
Thank you so much for showing me
How evil you can be.

Kefilwe Nungu Poem
I sometimes wonder why we were brought here?
Was it mainly exercising reproductive rights
Or was it to multiply the heads that will continue to endure the never ending pain of living with nothing
Why do we really have to keep going while there’s no way?
Would it not be best to stop?
Forget that, maybe that’s not what we were brought here for
Is it really living while we constantly fight for survival?
While we have to force ourselves to carry on to the next day?
When will it stop?
Maybe when life ends?
Does it really stop?
Does it ever gets better?
I bet not

Kefilwe Nungu Poem
My worries lies in the smiles I fake
The laughter that is inflicted with pain
The tears I hide
Words I choose not to say
Nights where sleep does not come easy
Days I wish to skip
Thoughts I dismiss
Actions I can’t explain
The anger that is filled within
Coupled with trauma , pain
Will I ever know peace?
Peace ?
That is foreign in my world
With voices that rule that land
Voices that keep me awake at night
That terrorises me
Have I become my own poison ?
What happened to the sunny days?
Calm mornings
Stolen by the voices in my head
My worries lies in my bleeding heart,
yearning for comfort
My worries

Kefilwe Nungu Poem
What if everything was different ?
Would you try again ?
If different is incorporated, does this mean it will feel better ?
Would it not worsen ?
How do you get out of your comfort zone while it is the only place giving you comfort
Will it heal my soul ?
What about my scars ,
The pain that I carry within me
Will it all go away
Just because it will be different this time ?
