Little time
Nosipho Malinga 1995 (Durban)
Time has sprung like spring leaves kiss of a new moon.
It creeped my out of my loneliness to later hold my beauty undercover blankets.
I look for measurements of love. I yet know no sickness to cure my peaceful protest of you.
I write letters to my other soul for comfort and I knew who I loved for a second. I quick brush to your precious face, I later needed to taste your ruby lips.
Time has sprung like spring leaves kiss of a new moon.
