A year without you (9 August 2009)
(Poetry)
24-09-2009
by Ryno Julio Platt
Dear mother, since you departed the nights have been very long,
I'm missing you like crazy; I don't know how to move on.
I can still feel your warm hand placed within mine,
And how I looked into your eyes, refusing to cry.
No one understands...
I want to go (6 July 2008)

I tried so hard to stay strong and I tried to carry on,
I tried so hard to stay solid even though I was torn.
I tried so hard to fight the tears and to fight my fears,
I tried so hard to give my all during these last few years.
My heart is...
Independence
(Poetry)

Every day it's a hustle just to make it through,
Every day there's a bustle... doing what you got to.
You try to make something out of the nothing that you have,
It seems that every try you give - life cuts it in halve.
You sit and wonder...
It never ends

Calmly in silence, he sits and ponders,
unattached from this world, letting his mind wonder.
It takes him to a place he doesn’t want to go,
a place filled with sorrow he doesn’t want to know.
And as he dwells through the halls of this mystic...
My life

by Ryno Julio Platt
I sit and think about the situations that I'm facing,
So many hearts breaking, people hating & faking.
I see my people dropping, called away from above,
It seems there ain’t no stopping, my world needs love.
I feel the pressure like a...
My walk, my talk

Every day and every night I proceed on this journey called life,
Trying to keep clear my sight in the midst of my internal strife.
At the break of dawn I'm marching on, in search of a brighter light,
Trying not to play it wrong, trying to stay...
Pain away

Pain away, away I say. Pain away, away I say.
You’ve been following her for too many days,
But today pain away, away I say.
I can see your pain when I look into your eyes.
You’re so confused, sitting, wondering why
the world's so cold and...
Predicament
(Poetry)
26-05-2008
by Ryno Julio Platt
In conflict with emotions everyday,
teardrops falling
for the words you cannot say.
Trying to look as if all is okay,
trying so hard
just to make it through another day.
Projecting an image to look so right,
when no one knows
you’re...
Preparing for the next round
(Poetry)

by Ryno Julio Platt
This crazy life gives me the steam to write these rhymes,
see it’s either I scream or I put down these lines.
So I grab my pen and I continue again
to paint a verbal picture with my adrenalin.
I’m having hard times with the life puzzles I’m...
Reflections… 2007
(Poetry)

by Ryno Julio Platt
As I reflect on 2007,
I look back; see my friend Rueben go to heaven.
So much hurt, heartache and tears,
I'm lucky to have made it though last year, it appears.
Because so many of my people made their exit,
It has me wondering who life’s...

Dedicated to Reuben Beukes 17.04.2007
I still remember that first time when we met,
I didn’t think so soon you’d have me dressed in all black.
I thought we were still going to do so much together,
but again I’m reminded that nothing lasts...
What I see
(Poetry)

I open up the newspaper and what do I see?
Murder, Rape, Women Killed and Deceased.
I’m struggling to comprehend why this is going on,
why would a man do so much wrong?
Evil seems to be everywhere, around every corner,
Mothers- when your...
