HEADS OF LONELINESS

pure love

Sounds of love blur ears of singleness

Which seek its arrest by hatred

While secretly hoping for its miracle

But love is for those with traits of the sheep

Traits of the dove

Traits of swans

Traits of the sun

Traits of the moon

And traits of cool breezes

Not those consumed with the fierceness of lions and lionesses

Caged by the greed of hyenas

Soaked by the noise of scared dogs

And wired by pride and egos of peacocks

Too bad eyes of loneliness see nothing

Their ears hearing nothing but bitterness

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. :)

You have such insight into human behavior and the negative traits that make it impossible for a person to discover the essence of why we exist…for love.
