Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Taller Than Twice

Taller than twice 
I chose who I want to be 
I will never stop my train
I know my destination
Is far from the many 
No wonder am winning
I must be hyping 
I must be who they dream of 
Cos behind my back 
Alot words that stabs my soul
Has been vomitted
By those I love and trusted
The world is deep 
And that is why 
I chose who I want to be 


Taller than twice 
I am born to write 
Cos the world needs 
To read a true map 
Of a living soul 
Whose intention and source 
Could be seen from love 
Am living so I can tell 
You the meaning of suffering 
I can prove to you the act of pain 
So again and again 
I refuse to be short 
And shortsighted by men
Of no equation 
They glitter but they are not gold 
They think they shine 
But they cost nothing 
They need to fly 
But got no wings to jump
It impossible to avoid their noise 
But it possible to show them 
Where they belong 
And let them alone to 
See there level 
Am at the edge of the tallest 
Doubt me if you can

Constance La France May 3, 2021 at 10:24 AM Richard, wonderful poem, well done. I can relate to your words as I was a bullied kid, but have learned to rise above that because a bully is a coward that hides in a gang and you are right they have no wings, but your found yours in poetry, so fly, peace _Constance Richard Nnoli May 3, 2021 at 1:59 PM Thank you so much la France, more blessings to you.
