Xoliswa Maduna Poem
Crying none stop
A river full of tears
A pain in your heart like a heavy burden over your shou(we've heard you)
In your own funeral crying
Slowly committing suicide
Crying for help but you seem invisible
(we've heard you)
Slowly giving up on life
With nothing but tears in your eyes
You starve happiness
You sleep tears
(we've heard you)
We've heard you cry
We understand your tears
Dancing on the stage of sorrows
Voices whispering suicide
You have nothing but tears
Gave up on life voices in you speaks suicide
Problems higher than the mountain
Your life is a stormy sea
(we've heard you)
Doesn't mean if we don't help you now we didn't hear you
Oh no; we've heard you
You were Loud and clear
We just making plans
Waiting for the right time for the plane to land
(we've heard you)

Xoliswa Maduna Poem
Valentine is a day of love
Whereby couples renew their vows
But do you really have to wait for this day
To really be ensured that you're loved
Let there be a twist
I decided to be in a relationship with my passions
Whereby we exchange vows everyday
I'm sure that my heart is safe there
Striving towards the road of success together
Hand unto hand we shame the haters
A best friend who remains forever by my side
Not once in the sunlight will it disappoint me
Nor turn it's back on me when the world does
My passions
The reason I walk head held so high like a giraffe
The reason I'm so egoistic like a hungry lion
The reason I hunt endless like a leopard
Poetic justice
Poetic lines
Poetic phrase
Poetic freedom
Poetic love

Xoliswa Maduna Poem
I made the biggest mistake of my life by letting you go
I was fooling myself when I thought I could make a living without you
I need you and only you
Look at me now sitting and regretting
Thinking of what could've been done
The happy moments we could've shared
Of how I could've dealt with the situation
You gave me your heart and all I did was show no mercy
By destroying it until blood came out
I'm sorry I truly am

Xoliswa Maduna Poem
Why am I raped?
Am I not good enough
Am I a trash
Why so messed up
Why so childish
When will I ever be a giraffe
I want to be a lion
Why can't I just be matured
So young so confused
I am a lost rat
Wondering off the streets
So powerful so eager
I roam around the world
I spread my wings like a eagle I fly
Searching for a better tomorrow
The immature has lowered it's wings and fell to the ground
I am mature
I am a youngster who just wants a better tomorrow
The best for our country
Because we are not free
Freedom is just a concept
I still respect those who fought for our freedom
Even thou we disrespect them through our actions
What does freedom actually mean to you?
Does it mean doing whatever you want?
I say to you rapists
You have to free yourself from yourself
Then you will feel the taste of freedom
The sweet honey and milk of freedom
Because now it's still sour and bitter to you cold hearted

Xoliswa Maduna Poem
Life is full of sorrow
Life is full of challenges
Life goes up then down like a swing
Life is a river
Life oh life you are full of cruelty
You have no mercy;no matter how much tears we cry
You still knock us against the rocks
Life oh life
Where is your mercy
Where is your kindness
Life can't you just show mercy for once
Life oh life
Why are you so cruel?
What did we do wrong?
To see this bad side of yours
You keep knocking us against the rocks
Life;oh life;where are you taking us?
Which direction are you leading us to?
Life oh life why are you so cruel?
Why don't you have mercy?life oh life!

Xoliswa Maduna Poem
It keeps on playing in my head like a record put on repeat
I'm failing to forget about it
How hard can it be to just close my eyes
And not see anything
How hard can it be to just sit alone with my thoughts
And not remember anything
I'm traumatized
A memory to keep for the rest of my life
If only I had a way to forget
I just wish to delete the memory
And act like it never existed
A memory that teats me apart every minute
A memory never forgotten
Oh Lord please take my soul
Sunrise a rhythm of hope arise and hide my shadows
Make me happy again
Trauma!Trauma! Why can't you just leave me alone
I don't need you in my life
You slowly murdering me
Please remove yourself
Because it feels like I'm dead
Deep inside I have nothing
It's just a cover outside that makes me seem alive
A mask for people to see
I'M NOT HAPPY

Xoliswa Maduna Poem
I lost the inner part of me but that doesn't make me worthless
I lost the inner part of me that doesn't make me useless
I lost the inner part of me but still can make a difference
I lost the inner part of me but still can be an inspiration
Yes!the guilt haunts me day and night but I still have a chance to make the impossible possible
I lost the inner part of me but that doesn't make me worthless
I lost the inner part of me that doesn't make me useless
I lost the inner part of me but still can make a difference
People may think that if I lost the inner part of me I am an ant
That could just be stepped over
Oh No!I still have a voice
I'm still human
Shh and listen because the inner voice in me speaks on volumes
The prodigal child speaks so listen because the inner voice in me speaks in tongues
I lost the inner part of me but that doesn't make me worthless
I lost the inner part of me that doesn't make me useless
I lost the inner part of me but still can make a difference
I lost the inner part of me but still can be inspiration

Xoliswa Maduna Poem
If only I could read the sign infront I would find a way to whom I'm meant to be
My heart is a broken plate
My heart is fire burning in flames
You played me like a play station
Ohh what pain I've felt
I didn't know who to tell
I had low self-image
I had no confidence
How do you sleep at night
Knowing that you have hurt someone
Knowing that you've killed somebody daily with pain
Knowing that someone is deeply hurt
Where do you get the guts to be happy
How could you?
If only I could read a sign in front I would find a way to whom I'm meant to be
