HE WHO MATTERS

He who matters
Is he who shared my travelling womb
And came on same day of the week as me
Onto the shores of this earth

II
He who matters
Is he who sailed
On stormy seas
Anchored by my weak hands
Knowing and holding his own
To climb the ladder of success

III
He who matters
Is he who I love to death
One who never embarrases
One who strives to be better
Bringing sanity where chaos reigns

IV
He who matters is blooming in youth
Paddling his own boat
Anchoring motivation on his youngers’ screens
Leaving traces of laughter while
Running in hunger to me

V
He who matters is sunshine
In my cloudy sky
Nice breeze in unbearable heat
And is among other people

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. :)
