A Poem by Lerato

FOR ME:


It starts with a idea

A thought, a vision, 

Moment, a sound, a sight,

A fright, a feeling,

Non feeling


You can say it starts with a thread

That is loose from the rest

Even though it looks the same 

as the rest of them

It makes you wonder, Why?

It stands out


You recongnize the individuallity an uniqueness

Then you explore it


That is how the rest of it, comes


It is like a beam of light

From a spot tha is tight

 The beam is braod and is bright

 It's far reaching and darkness breaching


It is like learning how to swim and swimming

You learn how to swim, it's natural

But even if you know how, if you don't do it

You drown, it's natural


IT IS LIKE...
