bitter cup...world you no goodA Poem by Reward 'premio' Mwale
Drinking grief outta the bitter cup
Life is sweet until it bitter up She aint known his other side until he beat her up She's thinking 'how come?' as she hits the floor Her beauty turned to beast and he hits her more She ducks his huge fist and it hits thedoor Take a rollercoaster ride with him No ups it just downs into the belly of the beast Been to hell and back, he can tell you how it is Flames crawling onto you Demons singing songs to you Whats the colour of happiness? He's seen it turn all to blue Thinking 'drinking outta the bitter cup? Is this all am gonna do?' Little girl, sunken beautiful eyes, bare feet Rugs hung on her bony shoulders, they barely fit Her bed is cold, bare concrete Just cardboard to cushion, she provides her own heat No telling what the night is gon' do to her She sits there, armless teddy in hand, the only friend true to her Life goes on, on the other side of grief Smiles flash timely, like everything's okay We manage to maintain a hype all day Who are we to concern ourselves with the grieven What if life offers the bitter cup, do we see then You see world!
