By Mercy Idindili
HAIM in my ears
Sunsets on my mind
With every step, I take it all in
How marvelous you are
Black boots on my feet
It’s an uphill climb
I can’t help but stop and look around
How marvelous you are
Cold and covered in snow,
But that won’t stop me
I breathe in your cold air
How marvelous you are
A familiar scene
Beauty sinking into madness
I longed for these days
How marvelous you are
