THE LONG JOURNEY

download

My journey is long

My aim is somewhere to belong

I was the earth, trampled upon

Pounded by metal boots

Then butchered

 

I felt all the pain

But ended up as part of some mortar

For construction of a building.

I couldn’t care less,

From the earth to the sky was an upgrade

 

Hardly did I know I’ll be part

Of a beautiful shelter

Which will go into the annals of nature

I stand, occasionally slapped

But I love this moment and will forever

Love the thoughts of rising with fresh wounds

Into looking at horrible scars

Then polishing to be a part of this building

An experience on this journey

I’ll keep moving, keep polishing

Until I reach the unslappables.

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. :)
