Kefentse Sathekge - Maybe I

need to be still sometimes.
stop my breath
from accumulating into life.
maybe i need to tell you this,
that i am overwhelmed by
your presence.

maybe i just need your temperate
kiss on a cheek.
i need your hand, when im lost.
maybe i need to humble myself,
speak highly of you,
praise your presence, exalt you,
the way you just touch me.
how yielding your hands,
it is as if they where hand woven
from a blend of soft.
maybe i just need to explain myself,
that when i try to finds words, i cannot.
and gust of air just fills my mouth.
alarming tears gush, just thinking of you.
