Miss Babalola

I see your struggles
I hear the mumble
Of your heart,
In search for light. 

Life has been so harsh
Even though its pain.
Hope flies about,
Your heart's;
Window pane.

 Even though;
Life showed you nothing,
But shame.
You stay up tho!
Like a tiger;
That can't be tamed 

Even though
Your future
Seems dim
You shower
Under the rain
Of dreams 

What a hero?
You are!
Heavens salute;
O-er! O-er!
