How I Feel

At times when I journey in my mind, journey into this elusive world I feel like singing dancing jumping for the measureless joy that rooms my heart for what God has done for me At times when I journey in my mind journey into this elusive world I feel neither joy nor sadness I just think at this time I do my things nonchalantly At times when I journey in my mind journey into this elusive world I feel like raining ocean of tears for the sweet pain too sweet to swallow in my path for the way in which I embrace where there seems to be no way for the aims to which I hold fruitless aims, they seem whereas age increases day by day for many things unmentioned! when I travel in my mind travel into this elusive world I wonder what future lies before me

You have many thoughts to ponder, Afolabi, and that is why you are a poet! I think aging gives us even more to write about in a poetic way. REally enjoyed this one.

Thank you for the beautiful feedback dear Poet Andrea. It is true, aging gives more room for writing. Since we increase in Experience and Knowledge each day. Thank You ma.

Most of us have our ups and down, and thinking of the future is also important....so your feelings are understandable, Afolabi. Regards // paul

I think it is part of us. I do find it difficult to let it be. You know, future is much more important to think of. Even now, i wonder what future i will have. Thanks for the sweet comment. Love.
