Apartheid still alive

In remembrance of the late rested souls, in grave yards of the apartheid late icons.
Their souls all over the streets of boycotts
Laying down on the streets.

The past weekend reminded me of the apartheid era,
Where our people were killed like scavenging dogs
Their bodies laying all over like egg shell on see shells.

Dying after server pains and suffering fighting for survival and better future.
Their education and better life for the nation equally, even though they were treated unfairly,
Differently according to their race.

Some even sellout their brothers and sisters to win the shady power of attackers in our father's land.

Ubuntu was overcasted by the apartheid hatred feeling in our land.
Where peace was far to be implemented.

Freedom fighters were frightened and tortured,
As the so called apartheid policeman were threatened by peaceful spirit and actions our freedom fighters were implementing.

Today we are short for our land,
Land of our fathers.
They left this land for us to live on, to grow on and be productive on
Regardless of race as we rainbow nation.

We are one in this world
Regardless of colour or race,
We are one regardless of standard and statuses
We are one regardless of where we coming from and where we heading to.
Oh! yes we are my people.

We have been attacked for seeking better lives and way of living
Attacked for voicing out our voices to be heard by those who are milking treasures to into their buckets.

They forget us,
After we placed them where they are.
They promise to deliver
They promise to provide
They promise to help us
But now they forget us, after getting the higher mensions and positions.

We living in the world of secrets and lies sourrounded by empty promises, where people have became greedy.
Where ubuntu is just a word but not real core to build the nation with peace and humanity.

Peace, love
Happiness,
Is what we need
To protect each other and love one another on this beautiful land full of landscapes.
