If Tomorrow Never Comes

If tomorrow never comes my heart will be kept in your hands you remember me when sword is seen by my words will never lie like an eunuch wind i tried hard to discard those ugly image of war from my heart once and more, another image came to me raw and shocking, causing me to flush and bite my lips and i thought how cruel life could be. how heartless and uncaring nature treat me rivers of darkness, i swam in pains as the battle line is drawn ahead of me i want you to know how much i love you have no doubt in your humble heart if you see me no more i work in shield, against the charnel house memories that threatened to engulf me and i could not shake free from the cold hands of the past let my image be caved in your heart down on the alley are more good memories kept behind that would shield you for ever change has not come yet to this part where life is a race in which the strong trample the weak remember my wills written in the wall sound of my music flowing in your veins down the river band behind the iroko i tossed the bed of roses you gave me although they seems stale but stagnant they stood waiting for the remarkable day to come. let my feelings and emotions remains not silent welcome charity in sound mind orphans and the homeless forget not feat not alone in my wealth least you become miserable say me well to Michael the son of short Ogbu Efi we have known each other since ages climbing hills and trees take care of our children wait no longer teach them the myth and the culture of our kindred and those folktales mother told us tales of their father's tribulations, forget not. this lonely road i walk fighting for my country the green leaves howl in tears as i trampled on them in anger i wear courage like a shield attacking the enemies in the battle field so wide thousands are slain and millions held captive no retreat no surrender my hands are stained with innocent blood as i shrouded in mystery know you that the love i gave would for ever last if tomorrow never comes.
