I am me

I am me

image
Dark, bold eyes, brown hair and beautiful smile.

I am me. 
Kind, loving, caring and wise.

I am me.
Boring, shy, a person with no style

I am me.
The girl who never lies.

So one day when I turn old and grey 
When I sink my false teeth in a glass of water…

Remember that I am me.
And i’ll always be me.

So one day when I no longer have the strength to play 
And I no longer recognize my neighbor’s daughter…

Remember that I am me 
And i’ll always be me.

Yes my body will be saggy.
And i’ll no longer be the vibrant me.
High blood will attack me, and i’ll no longer be disease free.

But still, remember me.
The old me.
And know that i’ll be me.
I always be me.

I’ll always be….Makhubu Nonkululeko Evelyn.
