MY FIRST LIGHT

Some blessings are for a time
And get lost along the way
To help brighten a history
Which had no visible ray

II
And so I remember you now in thanksgiving
Seed of mine now planted to shine
And so I remember you without sadness
A part of me now part of the heavens
And so I remember you and cope
A heartbeat which pushed me through the slopes to hope

III
If life puts souls connected together
Let’s meet, still as mother and son
In a situation fit for your pampering
Without suffering
Without pain
Without tears
Without pills
Without concoctions
Without painful massages
So happiness will make us see
Eachother as the very fit to be
In places Odomankomah ordained

IV
Rest on, my angel
Rest on, my first light
Rest on, love of my very life
Till all that tired you here
…leave your beautiful body and heart
To freshen up till we meet again
…in yonder world

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. :)

I have some pretty weird beliefs about life after death. I believe we might have an ancestral village where connected souls can meet in the same way, I believe if you commit suicide, you’ll have to relive here on earth in a different jurisdiction till your time elapses. That’s why I always pray to serve my mortality, till the end.

This is touching.
My undiluted sympathies to the ‘persona’.

‘They’ shall have the comfort of another to restore the once lost pride.
‘Their’ heart shall feel fulfilled.
