LET'S TALK ABOUT LOVE TODAY!!

I have been trying to avoid this topic but for some reasons, I can’t stop thinking about the people who go day by day without being loved or cared for.

I can’t stop thinking about those people who are waiting and hoping to be loved.
I write this for all those who are on the wait, to gently remind them that they will be okay even if they don’t believe they will.

I remember years ago, I wrote a love letter, hoping the words would convince my receiver of my true love for him. He wrote back to me plainly “find someone who would love you the way you deserve to be loved. You are far too kind for me; you need someone who will reciprocate.” Getting over such a note required hours-days filled with tears and heartache to get the meaning. He broke parts of me which I am unable to fix.

It’s a good thing he responded in his own honest capacity. Sometimes, some things are not meant to work out, no matter how much you want them to.
Sometimes, you get exhausted from fighting for love to stay but give yourself permission to take a break and recharge.

The moment I understood that life should revolve around my own happiness and personal growth, I wrote a note-to-self; “I hope I get to have the courage to let go of the people who leave my heart confused. To have the courage to learn how to let go of a love that won’t love me back. To give myself closure, not to let losses destroy me. And to have the courage to leave behind what’s not meant for me.”

Every piece of you that hurts is a part of you that wants to be loved but does not know how to ask for it or how to receive it or how to allow it seep into the openings.
I read somewhere that said; “there are four types of love one needs and always go where these are fostered and grown.
Physical love, Mental love, Emotional love and Spiritual love.”

They say; “the right path is the one that scares you.” So, never let heartbreak make you a stranger to love, keep searching for the good in everything and you will find it. One day, you will find a love that you’ve been waiting for. There will be an overflow of love out of your chest and you will look for containers to store it.

I LIVE

  The phase I was in weeks ago made me question my existence on earth “perhaps, has my time elapsed?” I have escaped a number of accidents for two weeks in a roll. I was on bed rest. Got back on feet and faced yet another accident day after day “I thought my life has come to an end.” “I could barely let food pass my throat; the fear-anxiety and the stress all over it of what becomes of me the next day was too much for my mind” “is death beckoning me?” I asked myself a couple of random questions just to be sure I was on a right spot - safe and sane “I must repent.” “Change my ways, stay sane even in the midst of the rumbling thunder that was ready to take over in my brain.” So I rose up, charged myself up “enough is enough.” My mother had already said a prayer of favor  over me. She blessed me right from the day I was conceived. “You shall not die before your time, you shall live to fulfill  your purpose on earth; No man anywhere will deny you of your dues, the harvest of your planting

AWAKENING: STORIES UNTOLD, STORIES UNHEARD AND STORIES UNREAD

  Chapter one Correct me if I am wrong, but I remember all the words you like to say behind closed doors. She whispered in my ear “I take you as you are and you will be. I won’t try to change you but I will ride out change with you. I see you and I will never ask you to be less or more.” With words so charming and full of meaning, that’s how she destroyed me. I have been awed and terrified by the experience of being in love to the extent that when it’s love, I’d rather close the book and put it back on the shelf. I do not know how to hate no matter how much I have been wronged. I met Tuseke when I had gone for my usual check-up at the hospital. She was there to visit her grandmother who was gravely ill and on admission. She had asked for directions to get to the elderly female ward, that was just the same way to Doctor Mayepi’s office. My all time go to health practitioner. We walked hand in hand and talked about a few things on science and medicine. She hated being a

LETTER TO KAMBANI

  Dearest Kambani, I write this note to you for there is an ache in my ribs. Your sugar-coated deceit made its way through and I felt like all the air left my lungs after I heard and read out all your lies. You said; “I will answer you before you even call to me.” Little did I know you were trying to memorize Jeremiah 33:3 on me. You said; “I will be your peace.” But; Don’t be my peace. I already have that. First, be at peace with yourself and everything around you. I know this note will make you remember the warmth of my touch, how it made your heart race, the joy you claimed I brought to you. I had mixed portions of happiness and loyalty between the things I love and you with a pinch of sugar to align the moments. That’s how much I cared. I am blooming in your absence after being trapped in the cage of your lies and deceit, after you sliced me a dose of pain and moments of tears. Leaving you came hand in hand with finding myself – Broken but Functional.

YOUR FOREVER LOVER

I normally don't let people in my space, But when it came to you, it was all different. "How is it that you fit so perfectly in my mind?" I want to love you like there's no tomorrow, And when tomorrow comes,  I will love you all over again - Forever. There's no place that I won't go to find you on this earth, I will walk miles to find you. Just like wine and roses, You truly complete me; Never did I understand what true love is until I had you in my space. I will be your lover in sin and virtue from across lifetime.

WHISPERS AND PROMISES

  In this story of mine you have always been the best chapter! I’d rather take all the storms than have all the sunshine days without you around!   Though emptiness consumes me I surely will wait on time to lead me to you, for you hold the pieces that makes me whole! I met an angel; I saw it in your eyes with whispers and lost in your gaze making myself a promise to never let go of you!
