| UNTOLD STORIES
untold stories linger in memory like cobwebs in an abandoned home covering space, engulfing the place in emptiness, nothingness no survivor to tell the tale not here, none here maybe out there, somewhere together with the spilt milk and scattered seeds untold stories suffer in silence muffled in a scream stifled in a dream of what seemed to be the victor�s moment of glory translated into the power of a story first the telling, then the retelling you�ve heard it all before his story has been told and retold, over again mine, is still trying to unfold untold stories drowned in the sea and yet stolen sentiments prevail in the minds that managed to flee to the oases of distant islands lying remote and unvisited seeds of truth sprinkled in barren lands lying dormant and uninitiated the chance of a fruitful life at the mercy of the rain makers untold stories lie invisible in the open, undetected concealed by fearful thoughts camouflaged by sparks of emotion unable to mutate into motion the art that you draw on life but theirs is drawn out so they lie there, lifeless waiting for a breath untold stories linger in memory a stale stench, nauseating rotting reality, of decaying lives unfelt feelings, untouched hearts suffocating in the haze of a blind eye a world standing on the verge but still afraid to take a dip in these cold waters of truth so these stories remain untold but still they remain in memory untying in time they persist � tawona sithole |
