creepy creatures with  smiles like sunshine

creepy creatures with smiles like sunshine

A Poem by Lehlohonolo Lichaba
"

this is a conversation between two friends , one criticizing love and woman and the other one embracing love and appreciating woman.

"
Creepy creatures with well carved features
Pear shape, talk sweeter than milkshake hard to figure their figures
They will rip open the rib cage start ripping off the internals and leave blood tripping
They belong in the wilderness, claws on your heart if you skip one of the hidden clauses never for keeping.
Thinking of committing? Brother pause they possess deadly paws eat you alive with their sharp jaws
These hounds will haunt and leave you living with grave wounds
God never gave a damn about Adam; he took of his rib and on the wound applied hind's
I love hating coz love only hate brings

Pretty preachers with well voodoo spelled scriptures
Fere face, walk heater than a striking snake, heartbeat racing is what they trigger
Don’t get it twisted like an insane mind
If you think love is your enemy then you clearly blind
Like a player don’t confuse love hating with hating loving
Women are magical, like them cuddly with a smell of sunshine
Smile like dreams more beautiful like than a sunrise
I like them Africa flavored dark or yellow, hold them next to my heart like I’m playing cello

I know I once fell to a hallow
That's when I lost my thoughts heart pumping slow
Didn't say goodbye it wasn't a good bye, by the way I'm glad she went away
Things weren't going my way and I couldn't go her way so she decide to go away
I felt like a jerk when she threw her arrow
Stole my happiness fake smiled Jack Sparrow
Hooked me with her look, her hook hooks by the book
Tamed I could not be blamed, from the cuffs escaped I refuse to be chained

Tamed you right but my chains aren't tight
I know I once fell for thando
That’s when I saw across and beyond loneliness
How high I felt the first time I laid my eyes on her.
Defied laws of physics gravity became my B***h, was walking on air
I like how we just clicked although we not Xhosa, she took my breath away, fell for her no bruises as proof because I landed in love I say
Devil on my shoulder my friends warned me expressed love will be the death of me. All I see is contradictions because love is the birth of me


With birth comes death remember?
The mission is to break hearts across the earth aren't you a member?
Not vengeance but the avengers should bring punishment
The book says seven to one no rest until I count that as an accomplishment
My heart is not glassware God made it from Tupperware
Take a look at their teats and tweets and next thing you'll be getting sucked by this ticks
Must we blame it on chick flick? Maybe in their minds something is doing back flips
They pack their demons in their bags and they can carry with a fake smile scars on their backs

Fake smiles and demons is how love in your books is described.
Who are you to play cupid with what you can’t even prescribe? What even Shakespeare failed to describe?
Scared of love, pushing emotions so hard like blowing through a reed pipe
My mission is to mend hearts across the world want to be a member?
Spread affection like aids, let passion be the key instead of anger
I have seen and lived the tale, now sit and let me explain
Speed of light that's how fast love can trip you.
Fall for her completely you’d swear she tricked you.

Hard to pick a side in this one for me personally...I suppose the voice I relate to most depends on the mood I'm in on the day I read it. I certainly understand both arguments here, which you've presented with great ambition and precision. Nicely done my friend.
