Seasons of life.

Liyema Langa 2004 (Port Elizabeth)



The problem is you would think people are moody or acting weird or maybe even seeking for attention. Honest truth is maybe they are just being observant. At the end of the day “AMEHLO AWAPHAKELANI.”
The problem is we laugh to much and forget to quickly. Sometimes it is not about what you say but it is about your actions.
Mending things that do not want to get mended is seriously exhausting. Trying to maintain something can also be exhausting, so sometimes the final resolution is letting it  break or rather letting it go. People have seasons, just like fashion. It is important to take note that any human being can out grow a person.

At times it might not even be you but me.

About this poem

This poem is very close to my heart. It is a poem which foreshadowed a certain event which occurred in my life. Which was making the decision of removing myself from my best friend. Our friendship was just too toxic and I guess I just had to choose myself. It was fun while it lasted but we got to move on. We need people who will pull us in our lives not people who are will be our biggest opponents.
