Here I Am. Poem by Tony Adah

Here I am
Toiling in a sea of dreams
My head beaten by thoughts
In a labyrinth of ways
I want my dreams fulfilled
I am rain drenched
And sun beaten
My sinews and tews traumatized.

The ship of life
Is up with me in the wild oceans
I'm tossed back and forth
Up and down like a cork
Swept by eddies.
Will my dream come true?
Soon Or never
I will leave the world
Bodily Or my deeds
And this is the hope
That tosses me on.
