DEATH LIFE

NO FAREWELLS

We are here

In this hot sea together

Why should one cry the loudest?

Water, please stop screaming

Pepper, garden eggs, onions

Tomatoes, are lost in your world

Only their colour seves a reminder through you

So why must you make the loudest noise?

We are all unfortunate beings

Who among us was able to say goodbye

To his or her beloveds?

Who among us was buried as is duly expected?

Who among us loves to be hot in a sea on fire?

I love the sea, but not when it is boiling

From the coolest sea, I was brought here and made a carcass

So why can’t you let my soul rest in peace?

Whether we cry, shout or fight

We’ll end up in the human mill

On a second thought, please continue

It is your nature to weep,

To draw the attention of our maker

That we are ready to be milled

Sad, these no farewell trips!

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. :)

Birth and death there are only, what happens in the middle is up to the one who speaks. It doesn’t matter who is listening it’s only how you feel after its been said.
