A bit of trust
(Poesia)
3-03-2006
by ANNELINE
A bit of trust
can wipe away dust
of feelings, so insecure
and leave the heart, so pure
In the sea of life
there's a special need to dive
into the waters of confusion
which transforms into a solution
If you want to stand tall with...
Afri-Phoenix...The Birth
(Poesia)
1-10-2006
by ANNELINE
As she crosses the threshold of the world
Her crying voice, so untainted.
Sounds of innocence evolve from purity
A sign align of a birth divine
As the turbulence of a flame gives light to darkness
Intertwined colors of gold, red and purple...
African Queen
(Poesia)
4-03-2006
by ANNELINE
You were so young and immature,
but you gave life to your child, though insecure.
Notwithstanding your fears and worries, so sure –
you resolved to have me, although unsure.
I look at my life and thank you for that decision,
because of you,...
Bravery
(Poesia)
5-05-2007
by ANNELINE
Like the phoenix you appeared,
from the ashes of substance,
supremely brave and stronger than ever before.
An eagle, you symbolize, greatly courageous with a beak of strength,
so powerful but slightly unaware of the vigor of your supremacy....
Bright Eyes
(Poesia)
28-01-2006
by ANNELINE
Those eyes…so bright, but yet so sad
What can I do to make them glad
Who did them wrong
Why are they not strong
Those eyes…a song of loneliness
A sign of emptiness
What are they searching for
Happiness….and what more?
Eyes like...
Cry for the Youth
(Poesia)
3-03-2006
by ANNELINE
Don't delay
you hear it on the news everyday
young people cry out and say
"we want to live in the better way"
The way to pick up drums
and roar "away with slums"
much more respect for our moms
Everyone will rise and sing
"Aids is gone,...

Tears of hope roll down my face,
In my heart a song of grace,
A promise to the human race,

No more signs of stigmatization,
No more isolation and categorization,
No more acts of...
Cry of the Aids Victim
(Poesia)
16-04-2005
by ANNELINE
The time has come for us to relocate
the Aids victim and allocate
a special place in our hearts for him to participate

a chance to be free of being a shame
"Why do you accuse me
I'm not the...

Moving non-stop on a yellow...
Decisions, decisions
(Poesia)
30-10-2006
by ANNELINE
What is the foundation on which you base the decisions you make in your life?
What is the basis of your decisions?
Experience of yesterday in anticipation of tomorrow?
Is that not a misconception?
Intentionally distortion to deception?...
Democracy
(Poesia)
22-10-2006
by ANNELINE
A vague concept in the context of the unvoiced
A truism…a tall tale…a fib
Perhaps democracy is tranquility with rules and regulations made by people who is unable to hear the sound of their self-interest
overcrowded by their own hunger...

Exclaimation for Youth Participation in Decision-Making
(Poesia)
21-03-2007

Weeping for the opportunity to partake and probe
Depressed by oppression!!!
We scream
You call us mean, are you...
Fear, the disease
(Poesia)
24-10-2006
by ANNELINE
Dressed in a tuxedo
appearing akin to a gentleman,
an acquaintance confident to master its subject
into agreement of its own proposition
by becoming receptive to its wishes
and responsive to its will
A phenomenal interlude with the intend...
Friday, the 13th
(Poesia)
22-04-2007
by ANNELINE
Passion-filled atmosphere everywhere,
overwhelming chemistry in the air,
your perfect charm put me on alarm,
male psyche in action, emotions on auction,
trembles down my spinal column, oh, so yum-yum,
the yes to no ratio, so narrow,...
Hail, the Great Karas Region
(Poesia)
10-01-2007
by ANNELINE
A land of the ingenuous virginity
Untouched, but oh so ready and waiting
for that first stroke of discovery
to rescue its people from hardship
Begging for that ideal opportunity
to caress its inhabitants with plenty
A land of unspoiled...
Hush
(Poesia)
26-04-2007
by ANNELINE
For when you speak
you reach the peak
of an intellectual leak
In your word there’s absence of balance
merely nuisance and riddance
what a hindrance of brilliance
Hush…
since you don’t inspire or acquire desire
your words only...
I Relate, Therefore I’m an African
(Poesia)
18-05-2006
by ANNELINE
I relate, therefore I’m an African
I relate to the oddness of not carrying an African name
and the confusion of who I am…so ashamed
I relate in carrying the identity of a once colonial master
and being called a bastard
I relate, therefore...

(Poesia)

A human being who believe in the higher power
And depends on the truths taught by my parents...

(Poesia)
16-10-2006

Let me be
Let me be your wish upon the shooting star
Through the darkness, seeking for a light so far

Misconception
(Poesia)
30-10-2006
by ANNELINE
I act implicit
You take my implicitly and turn it into explicitly

You see my perception as deception
Is that not a misconception?
What’s important to me, you say is less important...

Namibia
(Poesia)
21-01-2007
by ANNELINE
A country where the history
lies in the eyes of the people
Tranquility, in their hearts
Incidents, in their minds
Decision in their consciousness.
A land that provokes the desire
To light up a fire
Flames of hope
From a different scope....
Poverty
(Poesia)
15-10-2006
by ANNELINE
The flames of hunger is burning my understanding to ashes
Grey ashes of insignificance
Insignificance to the man that understands

while lack is my fate
Lack of wisdom of why there is suffering for knowledge
Hunger...
Reach Out and Shout
(Poesia)
28-01-2006
by ANNELINE
Shout for social mobilization
Roar for harmonization
Scream for information
Reach out for education

AIDS is a reality, not a scare
So let’s dare to share
And be tolerant, it’s not fair
Let’s create...
She Is
(Poesia)
27-04-2007
by ANNELINE
She is a woman, so unique
Like the most valuable antique
A person who claims to be realistic
While living a life of a dreamer

No, it’s a choice to rejoice.
She’s an individual who makes a difference
With no...

Stranger
(Poesia)
28-01-2006
by ANNELINE
We connect though nothing has been said
I’m not social and you left all unsaid

Or were you waiting for me to give you direction
Direction, which could lead the process
Of emotional integration...
Suicide
(Poesia)
3-03-2006

Temporary
(Poesia)
28-01-2006
by ANNELINE
You’ve penetrated my life as a complete stranger
and thereby erased all the danger
caused by sadness, pain and anger
Immense, internal and private – you engraved into my life
like a deep cut of a razor-sharp knife
a deep-sea diver who’s...
The Portrait
(Poesia)
28-01-2006
by ANNELINE
Your skin speaks of desire
Like the yearning of a lioness to be admired,
An immense embrace of fire
Cause for a rhymester to be inspired.
Your gaze yells of sadness
Like an animal lost to the world’s madness,
Anticipating a spark of...
The Unforgettable Face
(Poesia)
28-01-2006
by ANNELINE
In the mind of the artist
That’s where she exists
He hungers to see her smile
Even just for a while

While she looks at him and stares
He craves to caress her lips
With his fingertips
He desires for...
Then how shall I describe myself
(Poesia)
16-10-2006
by ANNELINE
Like the soil of the darkest desert
Impossible for light to penetrate
Darker than chocolate, lighter than coffee
Roasted cacao
After the sun goes down
The opposite of fair
Tinted or maybe gravy
And my smile?
As pleasant as sugar
Natural...
We are growing (Siyakhula)

We are growing as night into day...
What if
(Poesia)
16-04-2005
by ANNELINE
What if it was never meant to be
for us to awake and see
that life's not just about you and me
but about all of us, will we agree
that our souls should be free
with less pain to some degree
What if hapiness is sadness
and health is...
Who Am I
(Poesia)
12-09-2005
by ANNELINE
Who am I
Who am I to judge you
and say that you are not true
or that the skies are not blue
and your mistakes stick on you like glue
Who am I to judge you
Who am I to look down on you
and say that you are no intellectual
or that your...
Who's life are you leading?
(Poesia)
12-02-2007
by ANNELINE
Your own?
Are you sure?
Are you not perhaps living my life, our lives and their lives?
Most probably…
Are you leading the bronze life of your parents?
Or the silver life of your friends?
Perhaps the golden life of your hero?
And for...
Young People, Take Charge

10-05-2006

For shame is not your name
When the burgundy spots on you face
Is why people look at you with...
Youth must adapt to change
(Opinioni)
28-05-2006
by ANNELINE
