WHEN THE NIGHT BURNS

Night’s towel drips of tears

Her laughter has suddenly turned to fears

Her moon left without a trace

So she uses darkness to cover her face

Her stomach churns

As her heart yearns

Her breathes fight

To see daylight

But her legs are rooted

In darkness until sun comes and have her booted

And leaves her again in the place she was booted

A heartbreak is like a burning stake

Even the heat in this can’t seem to hearts wake

You can be baked

Or can be caked

In its live hurts no one can fake

So cry oh lovely night

Until another nice moon makes you smile bright

One thing is for sure

Another will come, for now, just endure

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. :)
