Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>Renowned poet Tendai M Shaba has featured Malawi\u2019s Afro-pop star, Dan Lu in a new poem titled \u2018What I Need\u2019 which encourages people to reciprocate the love they receive.<\/p>\n

The author of \u2018Moments to cherish\u2019 together with \u2018Part of life\u2019 hit maker, released the masterpiece which has been crafted by Tex earlier last week and it is already trending on the poetry market.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Malawi24, Shaba said the new release is aimed at encouraging listeners to always think of love given and love received, or equally engaged in, by both parties.<\/p>\n

The mental health activist said it is very sad that most lovebirds do not consciously think about reciprocity which involves the practice of exchanging things with loved ones for mutual benefits and he further indicated that this has resulted in increased suicide cases amongst lovers this year, hence the poem which he said wants to address such issues.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a way of showing concern as artists in addressing love issues which has been one of the burning issues this year. There have been more individuals committing suicide because of unreciprocated love, so the recording wants to address such issues,\u201d said Shaba.<\/p>\n

The poet has also through the recording encouraged people in relationships to always love each other come rain or sunshine saying reciprocated love does not get compromised by the hard situations of life.<\/p>\n

\u201cRun barefoot for your love Swim with the sharks for your love Race with the cheetahs for your love Wrestle with the bears for your love Yes to love, to deep and true love,\u201d goes part of the poem.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the poet has described 2022 as a brilliant year which allowed to experiment with poetry and music and he has since promised more poetry and music projects. next year.<\/p>\n
