If the sun
would speak,
I’d have
many tales for it…
For I have
seen, done and been everywhere I’d imagined.
Some may
call it a joke, others a mystery but I rather call it a miracle,
They who
seek the "whys" and the "if
s" of what they thought was unfair,
Know not
that I did it, I wrote my script and lived it, like a pearl beneath the sea
I was that
little bit of brilliance among the corals of the world.
So why then
do you still ask why I closed my eyes?
An escapade
that turned out so right,
So ripe that
the world listened to the voice in me,
That little
girl in me came alive then,
This was the
secret to my freedom.
Not a very
well kept one.
My wish is that
the heavens will open for every child out there ..
Let them see
that this world is right for them as it was for me.
Joy washed me every time I see people wearing pretty smiles,
Yet you still
ask why I closed my eyes!
If the moon
told me night stories,
Every child
would sleep with a smile as I did,
For I told
it the truth, my happy realities.
I found me,
I loved myself and I liked all that came my way,
But why do
you ask yourself why my eyes remain closed?
Thank you, Maya Angelou.
