The Pain In My Heart Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

The Pain In My Heart

Rating: 5.0


It is not a stabbing pain
That hurts my heart
It is not an open wound
That afflicts my heart
It is not an ordinary pain
That torches my Soul
Hurting my spirit
It is a pain made of Love
It is a pain emanating from Love
It is a pain at the centre of my being
It is a pain that only Love can soothe
It is a pain that only Love can heal

Dedicated to the victims of xenophobia in South Africa
