Dangerous love
Chronic stress gave its path in my heart
Apart from breathing, that’s part of my pain
Stains remain, love cannot be sustained
Fight for what you love, and let happiness lead the way
Who is your soulmate, tell me?
Faith lost trust to hope, future is demolished
Polished my heart, yet still stuck to you like glue was applied
Still recall, when you said you will be like a father to me
Promised me live and future but feels like climate change
Who is in your heart, tell me?
I still need you, I don’t know if you do
I still want you; I don’t know if you do
I still love you I don’t know if you do
Who is responsible for my role tell me?
Faith please, gain trust again to hope
Love is medicine we all need to drink
Death can occur without taking your medicine
Medicine heals all illness, but the heart is stubborn
Make me love again but please tell me
Who is your soulmate?

Kgotalang Legoete Poem
Father's Death
Healing is such a process Life is a long journey
Living with pain is chronic
Chronic pain makes one sleepless
My hero is gone who should I turn to?
Days went by, thinking deeply
Chronic pain has been part of my life for a decade
Time doesn’t heal anything it teaches something else
Living with pain like other chronic health conditions
My hero is gone who should I turn to?
His funeral came yet I didn’t show up
I hope to do what's right in the season of winter
My heart is broken like a broken glass you won’t be able to fix it
My eyes are red like am developing eye disease
My weight is slowing punching down like a wheel having a slow punch
My hero is gone who should I turn to?
I may be strong on the outside, inside am weak
Father you left to soon, I can’t bare this pain
Come back because am weak, am afraid to show my mother
If she finds am weak, she will be heart broken
That will also break my heart, am caught up
My hero is gone who should I turn to?
