*life isnt about pretending to be something you&#039;re not. It about being who you are and finding someone <br /> who loves every bit of it.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Life&#039;s tradegy is that we get old too soon and wise too late&quot;


Asked to define love,
I will lead you
down the hall,
to the left
where my mother stands
with a burdened chest

Asked to define insanity
I will take you
up the stairwell of isolation
into the intricate corridors
of broken hearts
in desperation

Asked to define happiness
I will guide you
to sweet melodies
of my bhena’s* laughter, of my father’s voice
more blissful
than any remedies

But asked to define myself
I know not where to lead
I know not where to follow
I see a blank page;
a glossary
Desolate and hollowed


*bhena: sister
