Abraham’s Poetry: Like Air
Like Air
by Abraham, Ghana, West Africa
Do people find happiness in tears.
when what it really does is wash the soul.
Indeed a sad face is good for the heart
but what about inspiration.
Talent is true, but it is always hidden
It can either be discovered or lost forever.
It is always true to look deep within yourself.
Do people find pleasure in laughter?
when all it does is rekindle the little joy in you.
Laughter is good .is it not?
yet never is it all who find happiness.
less to talk of laughter.
happiness goes with laughter ,
Yet some of us try to imitate happiness..
how can that be?
Wearing a smiling face over an empty stomach
such is the tragedy of Africa
the story of the child within.
to be comfortable where there is no comfort
And to find rest where there really is no rest.
Life at its lowest state
