You Left Me
By: Lesedi Moyo
15 March 2013

To the one I love(d)...

Always a part of me.

It pains me to write you this letter but sadly, I have to.

Allow me to elaborate on what happened after you decided to peacefully depart.

Smooth breeze gently kissed my cheeks as I sat there in solitude. Face covered with a black veil, I mourned for you.

My thoughts were occupied by a hoax you'd play on people. I just couldn't bring myself to chant along these lame lamenting lyrics.

Every time I tried to, my heart would beat slower and let tears translate what my tormented, tortured, tranquil soul felt.

You left me.

Why did you?

Like a snake peeling off its skin, you and I were to be forever to be apart.

As much as I didn't like the sound of my own heart's shutter, I knew I had to let you go.

The sad and yet strange thing is, I no longer feel the loss.

I guess I left you too...

Written by a 17 year old me to a 10 year old me.

Devotion is a Death Sentence
By: Simbongile Skiti
26 February 2013

My love for you blossoms like

a primrose in the spring

with so many blissful memories to cherish

the love I felt for you was just 

a stain that vanished



You took my pride away from me

you used me to satisfy your needs

I was blinded by your love 

I sold myself, comforted you like a glove


Unfortunately I didn't know who I was 

living with a stranger who fed me with lies

I had abandoned my dreams


You made me dig my own grave

pushed me into a cave

now I'm living in hell like a slave


I've got to let you know

that I was born alone

I promise not to love again

I've got to let you go!

Remorseless Men
By: Millicent Mhlophe (12)
14 February 2013

DO NOT COMPREHEND WHY WOMEN BECOME VICTIMS OF MEN

GONE ARE THE DAYS WHERE GIRLS SAW BOYS AS THEIR BROTHERS

WHERE BOYS SAW GIRLS AS THEIR SISTERS

GONE ARE THE DAYS WHERE WOMEN SAW MEN AS SHIELDS THAT CAN PROTECT THEM FROM EVERYTHING

MEN WERE NOT ABUSERS

WOMEN WERE NOT VICTIMS OF ABUSE NOR RAPE

NOWADAYS IT HAS ALL CHANGED

GIRLS ARE SCARED OF BOYS

WOMEN FEEL UNPROTECTED AROUND MEN

WHY ARE MEN SO UNRELENTING....REMORSELESS

WHAT DID WOMEN DO TO GET PUNISHED THIS WAY

I DO NOT COMPREHEND.

NOWADAYS WOMEN, GIRLS, AND BOYS ARE ABUSED, RAPED, MURDERED, AND KILLED

MEN ARE HAWKERS OF WOMEN

WHY?

YOU DO NOT HAVE A REASON OF DOING SO

UNRELENTING REMORSELESS MEN DESERVE TO BE PUNISHED OR PUT AWAY.
