TELL ME A STORY

Tell me a story

Tell me a story so sweet and fresh

Tell me a story undiluted

Tell me a story from times past

When the trees provided the sound as the waters spoke

Tell me that story from when the birds met as a choir to sing only cheerful songs

Tell me a story without blemish

A story without lies

A story which identifies me

A story which cuts not but could make my enemies bleed

A story of stories

A story devoid of hatred

A story that will wipe sadness

A story which will make me grand even when I face worldly superiors

A story which will shine through the battling darkness

A story which will take over souls

And write my name

That is the story I need you to tell.

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)
