Sinokuhle Madiloyi Poem
A small baby came to be crying
A teenage girl came to me bleeding
I saw a passing woman full of blood
Like a shivering person she was weeping
I tried to ask what happened
But all I got was silence
My dear god where do we run to?
We run to the side of our mothers and find physical abuse
We run to the side of our fathers and find sexual abuse
We run to the side of our friends
and relatives and find emotional abuse
Trying to raise our voices we get a slap
My dear god what do we do?
when I ask my self that question something comes up
My dear nation I think we should be taught empathy and kindness
Yes we ,I mean the united nation
LET'S UNITE LET'S BE TOGETHER AND FIGHT ABUSE

Sinokuhle Madiloyi Poem
When I was growing
when I suffered emotionally
when I suffered financially
where were you dad?
When I tried committing suicide repeatedly
when I felt unconscious
when I was almost a beggar
where were you dad?
When I felt as a burden
when I cried every time
when my head started aching
Due to deepest thinking
where were you dad?
You simply got lazy
and started behaving crazy
You followed your wrong thinking
You took care of the ones around you
and forgot the one far
Why did you let me seek
when you was not sick
why did you forsake me
where were you dad?

Sinokuhle Madiloyi Poem
I wish to live in a place of peace
In a place of silence
in a place where there's no argument
in a place where I have to think less
In a place where there's space
No people to torture me emotionally
where I won't have to sympathise with fake people
where I won't have to avoid peer pressure
In a place where there's no war
In a place where there's no sarrow
I just wish to live under the moon
And watch the brightness of the moon
The twinkling of the stars
and feel the fresh air
away from the polluted environment
Whenever I run to my land seeking peace
I come back with conflict
Hence I wanna go and live in a peaceful environment

Sinokuhle Madiloyi Poem
The stars stopped shining and twinkling
the shiny surfaces turned dull
the light turned into darkness
my life turned into darkness
When I walk in the road I see accidents
when I get to school I get hopeless
when I look at everyone I see devastation and trauma
But when I look at myself
the accidents and hopelessness
seems nothing compared to the pain I endured
the tears I had to shed
The hopes I had to lose
my heart wish broke multiple times
the suicidal thoughts and doings
the too much pain at a young age
The sufferings I had to suffer
the depression I was in and still in
the poverty I was in and still in
the mocking I always get from others
it's painful, it's sorrow, it's misery
pain changed me and I'm still enduring it

Sinokuhle Madiloyi Poem
Alone is how I walk
Alone is how I talk
Alone is how I speak
Alone is how I seek
In a small corner I cry
In a closed room I try
Life feels like caving
No I think I'm craving
For a disappeared happiness
In the darkness I stay
As I'm hoping to lay
In a comfortable bed
To crymuself to sleep
As my mind tries to think
Sun sets sadly
Rain rains repeatedly
Truly it's one of those days
Days of struggle
Days with no cuddle
Days of hardships
Days of loneliness
Days of burden
Days of suffering
Days with no pampering

Sinokuhle Madiloyi Poem
Come close and listen to me
my dear nation let me give you some explanation
clearly looking at you, you don't know what life is
People life is a big rock
which you need to lift up
Determination is what you need to lead life
confidence is what you need to lead life
hey! life is unbelievable
my beloved nation life is full of miracles
life is a plant that needs irrigation
Life has steps, instructions to follow
wait! let me give a strategy
the harder the situation, the more experience you get
nothing is impossible in this world
The harder you try the faster you succeed
fall, stand up and continue walking
love yourself, Trust yourself and have faith in you

Sinokuhle Madiloyi Poem
His name sounds like water
like waves on the sea
like a summer breeze in the tallest tree
Zachary, Zachary, Zachary
His face is pure white
he has a beautiful smile
he is the romantic candle in darkness
He is the sound of the poem
the sound of the music
the rhythm of rhyming words
He came and casted a spell
he came and showed his existence
Even though he's too far
I remember every action of his
Him laughing and smiling
Geez, his warmest hug
his charming face
I don't know what to say
He's unexplainable
he's a dictionary itself
he's as pretty as a picture
They are right when they say
love drives you crazy
love makes you blind
love makes the world go around

Sinokuhle Madiloyi Poem
She's trying to hide her pain
little did she know behind that fake smile
I notice each and every suffering
The headache and tears I have
are nothing compared to her despondency
she wanted to cry out of not knowing what to do
oh my god this pain is overwhelming me
This pain is crushing and breaking me
when my own pillow is full of tears
I wonder how is her pillow
it must be leaking
When my own head aches
her head must be burning
when my eyes are full of tears
her eyes must be swollen by now
I can't wait to develop power
to gain strength
to be old and matured
and grant my mom happiness
and offer her the respect and love she deserves

Sinokuhle Madiloyi Poem
Love is a feeling
Love is singing
A melodious love song
Love is an attachment
Love is a commitment
Love warms the heart
As an electric blanket
Love glows
Inside it grows
Love gives wishes
Love carries the universe
Love is a streaming river
Love is a river of joyful tears
Love is the melody of birds
Love turns you blind
Love makes you kind
Love grows when there's no sign of growth
Love shines when there's no sun
Love is a fresh rose
Love is like motivational words
It gives hope
It gives courage
Sun sets sooner
Rain rains repeatedly
Showing blessings of love
Love carries the universe
