Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Midnight Candle

Midnight candle
It took a long day 
To get a dark night 
It took too many quest beyond human
For one to pray 
It took alot bloodshed 
To call on nature to save our curse
This I don't understand 
So I let the candle light on 
Cos it took alot to be with a light 
The innocent bleeds out here 
The world is so cold everywhere 
We are not sure when it ends 
When they are ready for war 
It took us alot to get here 
It took a long day 
To get a dark night 
So I let on the 
Midnight candle 


Midnight candle
It took a long night 
To see the sun rise 
It took alot fears 
To understand the important of braveness
It took alot evil 
To understand that peace is deep 
It took us alot time to 
Remain in ignorance
Swimming in the pool of confusion
Drowning in the sea of lies 
Captivated by strange force's
It tooks us a long years 
To be perfect in line 
The same lines not inline with our souls 
How many of us are who we are supposed to be
How many of us are really happy
With our reality 
How many yes how many 
It took us so long 
To live in fear of the unknown
It took the sons and daughters of Zion
Too long to unite and heal a their dying world 
So let me keep up the light in peace 
It took a long day 
To get a dark night
So I let on the 
Midnight candle
