Oluwatomiwo Akinyemi Poet Bio

Who Am I

I am a treasure 
that has no measure 

i am bought with a price 
therefore no man can trouble 
me 

i am a pillar 
that needs no filler 

i am a battle axe 
not an axe for battle 

those who mock me 
wil ask to have my field 
mucked 

i am bound for the top 
not to watch events unfolding 
at the top 

the nature of man is to pull 
me down 
but my God has lifted me 

i am chosen 
not a cast away 

God will make me a terror 
not to be in horror 
in the kingdom of darkness 

i shall be a light 
to illuminate the dark tunnels 
of life 

i am a royal priesthood 
who will dine with kings 

though the devil wisely 
foolishly thinks he has won 
i know he is a bad loser 

the obstacles he has planted 
before me 
are meant to lead to my lifting 
up 

when people see me 
they will appreciate the glory 
of God over my life 

the almighty has placed me 
above my enemies 
i shall not be moved 

every hold of sin over my life 
that the devil uses as leverage 
over my life 
 has taken away with his 
precious blood 

God has singled me out 
to liberate people from sin 
and to be a tormentor and a 
terror to the kingdom of 
darkness 

i am a winner 
not a loser 

the enemies almost conquered 
but the lord was there to pull 
me out of the ditch that has 
been set for me 

the lord is my refuge and my 
strength 
i am saved 
by the saviour himself
