Midnight Ponder Poem by Abdulbarry Asuku

Midnight Ponder

the light fades
and my cornea turns grey
then I begin to wonder
how would life no more be

but this thought, my cerebrum can't balance
hear beat accelerated
soul speaking in tone
I do not understand

I think of death and I laugh out sad
knowing how feeble life is
And as I realise surely one-day
I will say good-bye
to the good times I had

ouch it hurts knowing death awaits
cause sometimes my day bleeds
thinking of him
still I fantasize the after life that awaits

then my system
finally gives up to sleep
while my brain ponder greatly
of this 'Mr unpredictable'
only to have comfort
when a new day is born
