Just Temporary

By Akili G Jimo

Tears are a silent prayers, they say

Flowing from the eyes for grace

Unspoken yet so pure;

Mirroring the heart of despair

Seeking for console and solace,

To the one who cares and hears

With shattered soul and tired mind

Burdens of struggles and toils

Reflecting the faith to the mighty above;

Who sees the pain we endure

Everything is temporary, they say

Aches, trails, and suffering

That will ultimately come to pass

Burying with us; six feet under

But It’s not the end of life

For it’s the dawn of new beginning

Where heaps of joy we’ll receive

In the land of endless happiness

Where forever we will possess

The gift of eternal life.
