“ Burning Light " 

I stand blinded


In this burning light above
You are this distant voice within me
A whisper… far away
Something
Stirring within my heart
A gentle smile
You have faith in me
You demand
All my energy
You took my soul
Diffidence
You ripped my heart away
And you left me naked
In my love for you
To be a mockery
In the dark


I wanderer
In shadow land
You are this distant voice in me
A whispering… far away
My burning light high above
My desire… my love

tinka, your words are as beautiful
as a fading sunset, written with such gentle exquisiteness,
such a passionate rendering of the heart, a soul touching, that reveals the inner most thoughts of the writer, as a work of art,

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
