Flashes of memories - MUGABE MUST GO!!! ZIMBABWEANS NEED THEIR HOME BACK

 
There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness - Carl Jung To be at one with God is to be at peace ... peace is to be found only within, and unless one finds it there he will never find it at all. Peace lies not in the external world. It lies within one's own soul. - Ralph Waldo Trine

feeling

I want you to pour yourself back into the mould
so I can take you outside and wait for you to set.
I will delicately take the brush and dip it in the colours
on my pallette, paint the life back into you once again.

I wish I could catch every one of your tears
and string them together in a necklace of pearls,
just so that I can show you that your sadness
is as beautiful as every jewel adorned by Queens.

I walk my life along the question marks that you left
scattered so carelessly along the ground, and watch
as everyone else tries to straighten them, but for me,

I have no place in my heart for exclamation marks.

Hi Shades *still scratching my head about that*

I really enjoyed this poem Ash... I especially liked

just so that I can show you that your sadness
is as beautiful as every jewel adorned by Queens.
