Before The Winter

Before The Winter

A Poem by Ernest Yungsi
"

Why wait for the one you love to die before showing love?

"

Darkness has fallen in plain daylight

We’re turning on the church lights

Dressed in black

Front and back

 

Not a single dry eye can you see

Every cheek stained with tears

And voices wailing in sorrow

As we wonder about tomorrow

 

The mystery is vast

Beyond our understanding

But we rest assured, hoping

That we’ve bought the best rites

 

And sure, we’ll meet again

In a better place

But why wait with love

When it can be shared right here?
