Yet you continued

Emeraldsaviey 2002 (FreeState)



You saw yourself  fade

Stuck in the midst of it all

Yet you still continued

Got stabbed with a blade

Got played like a ball

On your knees you fell

You knew it was he'll

Yet you still continued


You failed to say your weakest goodbye

Because  you were promised  Dubai

Placed your bet on illusions

Instead of performing  ablution

And bidding  farewell  to all the insults  and being  taken for granted

About this poem
