Forever Darkness

Henry Clottey 2003 (Accra)

Acrostic
There’s something to the feeling
Of not knowing your surroundings
Not seeing the color of things as they appear
but as they truly are
There’s something about the unknown,
the quiet, the cold
There’s something unspoken about the dark,
sometimes I can never quite put words to
Something terrifying yet beautiful
We still love them.
