About Me

My photo
Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa
I grew up in the dusty streets of Soshanguve, a township in Pretoria; South Africa. Grew up with my mother who is an amazing woman that raised my brother and I all by herself. For curiosity reasons, my parents are divorced and my mother is just amazing enough to look after the both of us. I found out at a young age that I'd lost my sister and faced with numerous other challenges growing up, poetry was my way out. That played a big role in who I am today and has earned me a few achievements,the biggest being granted the opportunity of being a published poet in an Anthology called "Daybreak" and having earned other achievements and also making a start of writing for a few artists and producers. I'm too a daughter, a friend, an aunt, a blessing, a miracle, a lyricist, and therefore, a lyrical miracle. I'm not unique because I'm not like everyone else 'cause everyone's unique... Get me?? I love music, i love drama, i love basketball (i DO play it but I'm no player), I love my mother, I love myself and my first love, i love poetry...

I don't wanna be...

I don't wanna be...
No, I wanna see...

I wanna see the wrong, not experience it
I wanna see the change, not change it
I wanna see faith, not be an example of unfaithfulness
I wanna see love, not be in love...


I wanna express myself, not be expressed
I wanna live and have your heart, not exist and lend it


I don't wanna see me love where I can be love
I don't wanna see unfaithfulness where I can be faith
I don't wanna give you a chance, I want you to be the chance
I don't wanna live 'cause I'm alive, I wanna exist 'cause I don't wanna be in love...
Where you see yourself like a knife... Piercing and hurting...


No, I don't wanna be.
I wanna see
I am the experience, again...
The hurt and deceit, I don't wanna be...
Experience the teacher... Now I don't wanna be...
