Even If by Bhekumusa Moyo

Even if I lie
Even if I sigh
Even if I cry
Even if I shy
Even if I try
Even if I....
Even if I ....
Even if I die

I would have anyway.

When looking in the mirror
My lips smile at the reflexion
But,
My eyes frown at the retrospection...

When does childhood come to an end
And madness too
A madness that feels
Like a cactus in the sun
The black sheep in the family
The being of madness found
In the exploration
Of the female voice
And the wailing
That can be found there too
Taught me that everything turns to dust
