The Truth About Love
12/04/21 • 51 min
All that my father asked from me was some of that unconditional love. My self-righteousness cost me a lot of good memories over the years. I could have forgiven and loved my father. Love would have taught us to heal our wounds. I hope that nothing in this life should cause my own sons and my daughter to despise me the way I dealt with my father. I cannot imagine living my life without their love. I know now that a good parent never forgets to love a child, even when a foolish child can justify not loving their parent.

How - A Poem By Nyasha H Mushonga
How...do we stand back
and watch them suffer
arms over their heads
waiting for the bullets to fall
and pierce their skin
stained dark as the hardened ground
and draw out the blood
that will stain the earth
with rusted puddles
