Knees Poem by Angela Bontle Ditumiso

Knees

Rating: 5.0


I had been
Desperate
Searching
With glassy eyes

Broken
Breaking
Starving

Joy,
Joy where are you
I found her not

Consumed by pain
A slave to it
Stuffing it with tears
Always stuffing it's mouth
With tears

Lifting my eyes
Pulled from cocoon
For a little while
For once
My eyes looked to you
I prayed
You heard me
God, you saved me
