Say

say 
too many things in my mind 
some times I know 
how to express them 
most times it is hard 
too many thought going 
on in my head 
sometimes is tough to think 
most time is hard to express
now I chose my blue pen 
to pen down most of my 
grieves thoughts and 
turn them into poetry
from my mind
its not easy to see 
what others don't see 
rather see but silent 
so I realise we living
a life of fear cos 
in most minds of 
the people there is 
a lot to 
say 

say 
I have traveled around
the world 
just like johnny walker
I walk through a lot 
speeches
I hear a lot minds
I see a lot opinion
made 
I listen to a lot 
spoken words
some words are knowledgeable 
some words shows
life  have given 
us a lot  to heed on to
yet life is still not easy 
so in the world 
there is a lot to 
say 

say 
you have something
to say 
that very thing sometimes
scares you 
sometimes you are mute 
sometimes you are brave 
sometimes you are convince
sometimes you are deprived
sometimes you are controlled
sometimes you feel free 
all just for a say 
talk is cheap 
actions speaks louder 
than words 
yet we are speechless
in our pains most times
with out actions but 
too much words we got to 
say 

say 
too much to say 
in a world of illusion
but who cares to listen
too much to say in our 
today civilization 
but who owns the blames
too much to say about 
our freedom 
and that could short 
a long life 
too much words on 
every lips of common
people 
too much words on the 
lips of the preacher man 
too much words every were 
yet words are not enough 
to bring back all we lost 
from yesterdays 
every soul have a mind 
so good or bad 
every lips have a 
say
