Life

Khayone Ndayi 2009 (East London)

Life is short, dark and hollow.
Where you can't dream, act or follow.
I can't wait to get over you, but I can't just cut through.
You are dark and depressing, I can't wait till i'm resting
I want to die so much
So I can't feel your punch

About this poem

That life is short and that you should enjoy every little bit. Cause you don't know the day you'll pass away
