Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Go In Peace

Go in peace
our tommy is empty 
our pocket is empty
our food storage are so empty
our fridges is cooling empty 
our salaries last too empty
our hopes are running empty
yet at the end of every
church mass the priest 
always ask us to 
go in peace 

go in peace 
our economy is leaving us to nothing
our resources is been controlled to nothing
our society is hiding us nothing
our schools are close for nothing
our hospitals are old for nothing 
our old are forgotten for nothing
our salaries are good for nothing 
yet every church service 
the big church auditorium 
is filled with confuse people
whose lifes are left for nothing
and still at the end of the church
the priest always tell us to
go in peace

go in peace
yes I wish we could 
I wish other side the church door 
our life could be a peace full one 
I wish our world was peace full 
I wish our right was given peacefully
I wish our life was dealt with peacefully
I wish just outside that church door
we could find that very peace 
the priest always send us to 
at every mass end 

go in peace
yes I will 
when that very change 
that very Cry's 
that very hopeless
that very serious important needs 
that very suffering 
that took us to the church 
is eliminated and chase 
away from our lands 
our communities
our life
then tell the priest 
I said that will be the 
very appointed time to 
go in peace
