Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Am I Here

am I here
What is the gift of life worth 
If sacrifice is forbidden 

Am I here
Among the living 
Who is the living 

Am I here 
I have searched
For too long 
I have followed the crowd 
With this knowledge so popular 
My young mind was filled 
With the Old ways style of life

Am I here 
You have to be educated 
Was all I hear home and abroad 
Then again I followed the crowd

Am I here 
A man moves when he decides
A coward follow with no self knowledge 

Am I here 
I so wonder which serves better 
As life is a choice 
So pardon my new choice 

Am I here 
As I keep to my self knowledge 
With the question that challenged
My soul to my spirit 
Am I here 

Am I here 
Just to follow
Am I here 
To live 

Am I here 
Who am I 
To know why am here 
And if really 
Am here

Am I here
What do I mean to myself
What do I represent to mankind 
What is life for me 
So the unknown became known
After this long search 
After These torture of inner search  

why am I here 
Is no longer a lingua I don't know
Is better reality 
that  is 
Am I here 
if am here I got to 
Love to live 
Again I recon 
love to live 
Among the living 
Only on the fact if 
Am I here?

Note I dedicate this poem 
To every soul willing to 
Live again
Richard Nnoli
