Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Cover my shame

Cover my shame
You can’t shame the shameless 
Cos he got no worth no more to hold on
He feels he is good enough to be 
Just empty 
He got no Hope and nothing to Hope for 
He lost all he worth and deserves 
To his masters 
Who he must always abides 
To his rules 
He got no say nor rights 
All he does is just live for the moment 
And obey orders 
Their is no justification worthy for the shameless 
Cos he got no dignity 
His life must be hard yet he don’t care 
He don’t even see it 
He enjoys his suffering and smile like the happiest in front of the world 
He could be your entertainer 
He could be your friend 
He could be your worker 
He could be your brother 
He could be your father 
Nothing moves  him any more 
He has seen it all 
Felt it all but 
He is stuck yet don’t know 
He is in captive yet don’t care 
I once asked him why he never cares 
he replied with a deep smile 
I have nothing to lose 
I have nothing to gain 
But I have a life to live 
And all you see is what I got.
