WHERE IS THE GLIMPSE I By Esther Esuga

Standing out the thatched hut
I see the seamless closure of the windows

The gloom that I smell is very intense
And I also feel the zero percentage of chance staring at me bluntly

I hear the silent sobbing of the helpless walking down and stilling my nerves
At this point, I am bereft of all form of wisdom and understanding

What can I possibly say to make these ones ever feel elated?

I  say to them just hang on, soon...
And they say we have heard that before.

Then, I THOUGHT TO SAY YOU KNOW LIFE IS IN PHASES...
And THEY SAY even that too
It's not a breaking news

Something new walked on the platform of my thoughts
Happy I was to bring this...
Then I said it can only get better ...
They all cut in and asked 
WHERE IS THE GLIMPSE ?

  2. It takes a ton of effort to convince someone who has been to hell and back that hope is a word. Nicely written.
