Bright lights and Dark Thoughts - Solomzi Moleketi

The Bright lights and Dark thoughts alternated like sun and moon

They sometimes shifted in uneven degrees which left a Purgatory like state

there was a single entity in the desert

She walked barefoot

On the sands of suppressed sadness

The heat came in like endless waves at high tide

there was no room for life

but she marched on

wearing a dress held together by a bow and smile

she was smiling not sweating

The empty dunes seemed to be endless and were constantly altered by the winds of regret from the south and forget from the north

they met beside her creating riptides in the sands which threatened her with pearly white smiles

Despite her constantly changing surrounding

she did not get lost

she was given direction by a single question

“Who are you?”
