Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Somebody Pray For Me

somebody pray for me
nowadays demons are
not far from humans

so evils are now too
common upon 
the lands of peace 

I sort for happiness
thinking the world 
was still a better 
place for the innocent

yet the brutalities of 
the men on top of 
the mountains of power 
keeps me in a confused
state were all good is ugly

so now when I sort for 
happiness 
I realise the world  has been
trapped by evil men 
and now our land bleeds
In terror and fear 

so when you find me 
in my world where 
words and songs of 
freedom become the 
motivations of survival

don't mock me 
nor tempt me 
all i need is your 
support 

 
somebody needs a prayer
in the land of destruction
in a land of ugliness
in a land of confusion
and if that is true let
somebody pray for me
