Calling on to the birdsA Poem by Itumeleng Molokomme
I miss pen and paper
Words are escaping me I miss the world where I used to belong to I'm not sure anymore what that world is or if it ever existed I miss notes and keys I only hear deafening cords of silence Trapped in my own darkness Banging the walls that trapped me in Darkness has swallowed all exit ways The roofs have moved but the walls only became harder to climb With no one aware of my drawning sorrow Coccooned in a shell of hopelessness I heard for the first time, a bird sing Birds sang to me a song of freedom The earth crumbled beneath my feet And the walls disappeared into thin air Breath filled my lungs and joy filled my heart The tears came rushing Faster than a liars tongue And I rejoiced through the tears Laughed and sang "this is great, this is great " So I'm calling on to the birds For I have a gift A song they can help me sing A song of freedom For I am finally free Free from me © 2014 Itumeleng Molokomme |
