Truth by Salihu Mustapha Saidu

      

The truth about life,

Is that it is complicated,

Until you make sense of it.

The thing about about adversity, 

Is that it is temporary,

Though it consumes you right now,

But in time it fades away.

One thing about silence,

Is that it consumes from within,

But sometimes saying nothing 

Says the most.

One thing about  trauma

Is that it destroys you 

And makes you stronger.

The thing about the sun,

Is that it will always rise tommorow.

The thing about assistance,

Is that its always close at sight

When you look closer,

And if you can't find one,

My heart is an ocean.

One thing about love,

Is that it doesn't come easy,

But when it does it is unconditional.

One thing about life 

Is that you cant fully feel its 

Sensation until you let someone know.
