Insightful love

Ntando Qekema 2006 (Johannesburg)



Is it about the undertone
love letter
I wrote
to you
thinking you would plead
with cupid
for a suave heart to give
to me

I gave innuendo godly love
from time to time
and yet again I sit
with unrequited love
when it pleases

Insightful love
I gave you dreams
that where never made
by my crooned
infrastructural song
accompanied by invalid
Destiny's and yet again
desensitized I changed that

Insightful love
I gave you greater than
the wonted ideas of love
your giving to her
the oppressor yet
comes knocking at my stressed door
to distress her Dale
 implication of true love
I saw through her
She seeks pointer's from this love
caused from galls
She created all of this
by giving you a lazy treaty
of true love and you signed it whole hearted

Insightful love
She doesn't know
 what a hot cup of true love
 taste's like
 nor do you
 hence im writing above the heaven's
 repenting your undesired mistake
 of not giving my love back
 Insightful love
