Rain, Coffee, Solitude and Music

A Poem by Badmus Adeyemi Abdul-Muqsit
"

This masterpiece explores the introspective and vivid life of someone who only finds life when it rains,when he sips coffee,when solitary and listening to music which also serves as an escapism route.

Rain, Coffee, Solitude and Music


I wonder what a creature you are !
Yes, you.
You, who enjoy the desperate feeling that the majority deject from the tears of the cloud.
Yet, you call it comfort.
Why won't I wonder what a creature you are !

For my instinct is curious,why again you proclaim to be addicted to the shadows in a mug.
While the populace sees it as the heart's heavy brew, you see it as your best invigorator.
While it is known to be the chronic thief of sleep,you know it to be your mental next of kin.
How I wonder whom are you!

I wonder by my troth why the Alpha and Omega hath created you !
Why in earth would you find comfort in a crowd of strangers ?
It only gives you a nutty quotient.
In melancholic solitude, you reside.
But then, you have dreams.
How do you intend achieving them ?

Finally, you've destroyed me.
Why have you done this ?
Why would you tell me that forgotten lullabies are your escapism route of life ?

Why ? Why ? Why ?

Why are you living this kind of life ?
Why is your life this unconventional ?
What is happening to you ?

You are in comfort with the dews of the gods.
Happy with the morning's melancholic kiss.
Cherish the exodus of aliens; and
Feel flawless in lugubrious lyrics.
