To you

To her, most beautiful I ever did know.
That lit up my world with brightest of glow.
I loved as if forever,
my one that got my heart and never.

Till today I wish I knew
How to keep your love stay true
A brilliant future once I told
Myself and have you always hold.

Broken and left did I feel,
with exile I must fight and deal.
And time helped me up, my friend
Time stolen from us to live and spend

A battle not fought or won by one
With this chapter it seems I am done.
No matter what from here you ever do.
That moon I saw I'll always wish for you.

bewys my verkeerd

ek het altyd gedink iemand soos jy is besonder skaars...
en ek was reg, want nie eens jy was so iemand nie.

Angels can fly in the rain

I awoke at a call in the morning just past two

That and the sound of the rain on the roof

My mind went cold as I suddenly thought of you

It was an officer and of trouble seemed proof.

His words were a blur and seemed to be slow

Still waking up, my thoughts scattered everywhere

He asked if I’m sitting, there’s something to know

And my confused face turned a pale blank stare.

As if unreal his story unfolds

My whole body shaking but tense

Cracking from the inside my mind explodes

This is a dream no other makes sense.

I rush to my coat, my keys, my car

Down the wet road at fastest flight

And I am not even driving that far

Arriving at a blinding blue light sight.

Through the chaos I saw you laying still

Next to your upside-down car by a tree

Breathing slowly as tonight last it will

I realize that this is your final moment with me.

Your final breath to your lips then brought

No more hurt, no more pain

As I looked up it was the first time I thought

Angels can fly in the rain.

For the legends

The ones who always show face

Never lets you down and never to bore

Though also human at centre core

Even legends run at an uneven pace.

Yes; the answer almost every time is said

The voice of reason sometimes away

‘Tis when legends most daringly play

Early to rise and never again seen by bed.

I admire your spirit, your excite about today

Trying to keep up at energy’s top

Fuelling others by refusing to stop

New adventures unforeseen wait in lay.

Creators of story’s yet someday to be told

To young hearts by old men; sipping on their drink

What will be next on the long checklist I think

We’ll have to wait and see how the legends unfold.

because i know

As I opened my eyes this morning, I realised that I am blessed

Thinking about today, my heart speeds up to lightning’s max

I fear nothing and everything at the same time, force relax

Even through this life that races by with feelings stressed.

I will live past times that might steal joy from my face

Confused and frustrated emotions no longer reside in me

For I don’t want time to worry about unsure days to be

I know I have to wait patiently for the longed embrace.

And human be with haste it must take shape

this is where faith holds trust to stand

Over all the seas, all the skies, all the land

only the most incredible can make my world shake.

Because I know it has been decided long before my day

That the one to share my last dance is not perfect at all

But yet fits at my side better than any wish could ever call

There always was uncertainty, but now no fear, I pray.
