I am drifting on an ocean full of memories
Memories of yawing mornings after a good night sleep
Memories of a tiring feet after a long stroll
Memories of distant shores and unfamiliar places
Memories of broken hearts yet to heal
Memories of distant planets and stars in transit
Memories of sunrises and golden sunsets
Memories of past encounters and after lives
Memories of my broken life's debris
I am beginning to see clearer now
The wool has been lifted from my eyes
Fear no longer commands me
She only reminds me of the master in me
Tears no longer well in my eyes
Misery no longer accompanies me
I feel somehow reborn
So close the door and let the past pass
For life has been too long waiting
It's strange how forgetful I have become
Time has a funny way of erasing memories
But how refreshing it is
When you're no longer stuck in the past
When you only build to last
When time ticks fast and you with it
When you win and you are in it
When the future calls and you answer
Your bags packed and you are ready to go
Yes I remember you from a long time ago
There you stood amidst the crowd
I was leaving not knowing when I would be back
You said I shouldn't forget to call home
I lost your number but I didn't 4get you
Then again how could I
You are my mother
You are strength
You are my friend
All that I have I bring home to you
To you Ghana my precious
