Lost Hearts

Lost Hearts

A Poem by Benedict Mdluli


Deep in the dark.
Dancing to songs of saints.
The heart getting weary,
The soul praying but faint.
I'm left in the open, villains
feed and drink on my faith.

 

We are humans by birth,
Deceitful by nature, evil

by works. Too big for our

booths, have we lost our

roots for we can even kill

for food. The older you grow

the clear things

become, birds start to cry,

humans begin to fly. Why

oppose nature, why degrade

our stature.

 

Deep I am sinking in sorrow,

nobody hears me cry, only

my corpse they may pick up,

tomorrow nobody cares in this

world it seems better when you

ride solo.
