Ugwu Cornelius Chidera Poet Rhyme

Retreat From Battle Field

It was true that I ran 
away
from battle 
yesterday.
Yes, I flee like a 
coward.
I was then a wayward

Which class am i in 
legion?
A legion that cannot 
defend his region.
A soldier without 
command and order
is always put 
nowhere but under.

But actually I did not 
scoot.
I had no bullet to 
shoot.
It was my legs and 
hands that ran.
I am a legend,an 
icon,and a man.
My heart and head 
remain the zion
that shiver not like a 
lion.

I only ran back for 
self defence.
I never and will 
never lie on the 
fence
to save my nation, 
my people,
which are my eyes 
apple.

I ran to prepare that 
I'll come to invade
as it was on the days 
of crusade.
With my solid 
readiness,
I shall  slain all my 
unhappiness.
I shall all of them 
woo.
Then they will meet 
their waterloo.
