(for agatha and dora)

on this night, I am sailing on a sea of stars
to lands that are fartumblr_static_full_moon_over_ocean_edited1-1024x818
the moon smiles brightly
and every darkness is forgotten

yes, though the troubles brew strong
I see God’s hand and I know they are long
enough to destroy everything that is wrong

tonight, for one moment
I will forget every single torment
raise my voice in song and forget the noise

on this night, I am sailing on a sea of stars
to lands that are far
the moon smiles brightly
and every darkness is forgotten

  2. This sweet composition reminds me too well of that beautiful tune by Sia titled ‘Chandelier’! Kinda twisted but as I read through the lines and verses, that was the vibe I was feeling! Its a personal favorite by the way so, little wonder ei?! 😂😂😂

    Totally agree with the thoughts of the Narrator here! Sometimes, we just gotta let go, let God and forget our woes and troubles! Worrying ’bout ’em will not avail much or nought even! Better to let go of inhibitions, resolve to be happy by all means necessary, seize and milk the days as they go by; whilst living in and for the moment! A moment missed and forfeited, can never be regained! So what the hay….just LIVE life to the fullest and laugh so much more than you breathe! True happiness is embedded in each and everyone of us, we singularly hold those keys, its not hinged on any else than ourselves! We just gotta reach deep within us to harness it!😄😉

    Way to go Su’eddie, happy and cheery is this and it totally gets me like you’ve absolutely no idea! Kudos Bossman, ride on! 👉😁

  4. ” tonight, for one moment
    I will forget every single torment.” This speaks to me big time. As in, personally. Thank you for this beautiful poem.

    1. Ah! Zika, our Zika…merci beaucoup. Pleasure mine and the blushes too – I will keep them all. Walahi, I think we need to remind ourselves of that sometimes o… Long as we are exiled here on these plains, travails might always hit us… In the midst of it all, we can still afford to close our eyes, even for that one precious moment, forget it all and smile. We owe ourselves that, don’t we?
