AS GOD LEADS

Swallow my light
You artificial dark tunnel
And train me in the dark
Forcing me to see
With my hands
Legs
Forcing my ears to be sharp

II
Swallow my freedom
And force me to taste prison
Then I will experience distaste
To know the blessings of freedom
Cherishing even its little crumbs

III
Swallow my pride
And force me to taste downfall
As bitter medicines uproot horror ills
So will it push me up
Making me too light to be submerged

IV
Feeling is knowledge
And I need these graduations
So I will write all tests
Failing?
I will rewrite
Until I pass
And move forward
As long as God leads

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. :)
