Thoughts Poem by Sylvia Chidi

Thoughts
Sounds of raindrops
In the stillness of a winter night
How does anyone have foresight
Tired swollen eyes
In complete emptiness a body lies
Creating a wilderness of thoughts

Occasional sounds of a car passing by
Interrupt the flow of the nights dream
Innocent thoughts
Spurn from the womb
To mould a man from a woman

Mystified power
Unexplained energy
Unconventional thinking
Giving birth to what is called instinct

A change of destiny
Chanced by thoughts
When at the break of dawn
The minds meet and comprehend unspoken words

Silent thoughts
No one can hear
Your mysterious moment
Only you can bear
It’s your need to be free
To be at peace with oneself

Silent thoughts
A secret moment
To indulge into wishful thinking
Then champion the process into creative thinking
To see how events can be influenced
