Have you ever? (Guest poet ) Yolanda Mudukuti

... “I am just a whisper in breeze”

..Have you ever been so lost you couldn’t find your own shadow?
So consumed by life you don't even have time to travel?
Yet everywhere you turn to for assistance
...there's no assurance,
no deliverance,
no patience in people for you to reach out to.

Only time can heal our lost selves,
only time can stop and to speak to us,
when all else fails the oldest in existence prevails.
That has to be the height, the true height of irony,
that when there's no time for time.
Time itself stops for you,
for ever.

Yolanda
