Verse

Hate Love

I remember a time I was lost and found,
then lost and then found again.
When I was lost, I couldn't be found.
Engaged in a life no one could wake me from...

Rhyme

The Lonely King

With a mocking smile and a weary sigh,
He polishes his blade and keeps the dull edge high.
Memories of battles, victories he’s paid,
A king in his castle, with his power displayed...

Verse

Desire can't hide

Hide, why shy away from what makes you glow?
Would you act on every desire?
Then what does it mean—take the chance?
Do you bravely do whatever comes to mind?

Lyrics

And so I fell

the less I have to give
the more they take
how can they steal this part of me
I realize the world doesn’t even care...

The insecurity

trapped, you find yourself
in the sick cycle of insecurity
I feel sorry for you
blady hell, there's nothing I can do
watching you...

Heaven's Way

For the universe, a star so bright
shines a little Hope of light.
As we wait, forgiving day.
Born a Son granted Heaven's way.

Left untouched

We stood close, just two people kissing.
Just like the act of becoming more than friends.
So brave that I took the challenge.
We stood centred in the crowd.
It felt like a significant moment.
Talking for a while our words started to influence the atmosphere.

Nightmare

In the wake of the night, I rise with a temperature.
My heart is racing like a galloping horse.
I gasp for air.
Shaken as though I could not believe myself,
Was it real or just a dream?

Verse

Breaking down childhood

If you look at the story from an ignorant point of view you will find it quite stupid.
But have you ever to come know, searching affection and selfish attention.
A moment of pure joy and happiness with no doubt.
A gift shared with the art of giving and receiving.

Don't say it never

From the dark into the grey, out comes the orange.
Behind the side hides.
Blue as the world awakens.
They shine bright in the day.

Verse

Disband Love

As I stood staring at those words,
I began to think about the way
I felt before my heart broke.
I never knew what love meant.
I was afraid of not living up to what
love is supposed to be?

Detention

On the board she wrote new work.
Foolish children laugh and joke.
As she turned her face around,
Children quiet she heard no sound.
As she turned back to face the board once more,
What was deep down, is now ashore...

Dreaming

In the silence of what the mind wants to think,
It is powerful.
Holds all emotion,
Sends the perfect feeling for the heart to reveal,
However, it is only a thought.
As the sound enters the quietness...

Verse

The Moment

There is a moment in time, where I lose my way.
Asking myself,
How did I get here?
When did this happen?
Why does this affect me?
What have I done?
Who am I?

Verse

I dare you to love

I dare you to love.
I dare you to forever be with me in my heart even when we're falling.
I dare you never let go of my hand when the going gets too hard to understand.
We dare to let go of the pain and the constant fighting in this world we created for our love.
Love wins when you dare to...

Love Overdue

You only need to listen once,
Because I won’t say it to you twice.
I won’t either stop or rewind.
Because I’m going to give it to you so nice,
I better make myself clear.
This is the only thing I fear.
Baby, I think we’ve been here before.
It’s so hard to ignore...

Call me Coloured

I speak English and Afrikaans,
I live in a '3rd world country.
I reside along gangsters and corruption.
I watch the media black and white,
But I could not relate.
The fact that they foretold my identity,
Left me with some debate...

Pack of Cigarettes

Yours held tightly in the pocket of my jeans.
Befriended a purple lighter in the means,
My nerves are hoax fine.
Then light a cigarette comes to mind.
Off we go to the smokers' section.
Pass the crowd in a quick...

The Secret Keeper

Our bodies spoke aloud, yet we never said much.
Our tongue twisted in the sensitivity of lust.
Trembling as if I had never been touched.
Although, seeing believes...

Verse

The job hunter and the hunted

I have seen company to company and employee to employee.
Although, what I have noticed is that in the corporate world there is no human factor.
Except for greed.
I have seen the workplace swallow in and spit out people as if they were nothing...
