The Black Light

In the midnight of 23rd May
They heard a voice of cries
A little saddy and sobby
May might bright something misty!
Seems to be strange when cries are out
While others are laughing out loud!
They shouted May brought candle in the dark
The moon in the night
The light of days has appeared
Some shouted and others did!
She has born,they kept shouting
But though she was born
Born from the cries,born from the struggles but she was born for the purpose
I heard this from them!
She was born
Born for herself
Born for her people!
Yet she was born
Born for her country
Born for Africa!!!

My Cage

In my cage 
I knew I wouldn't fall
I wouldn't fail 
I had no doubt 
I had no fear 
Buh people said a lot 
Like hey, you need to grow 
I didn't care about
The commission checks 
 And such they said 
 I claimed to be busy
 With my things in my zone 
 And I was really!
 Buh people kept asking
 Hey, you really comfortable? 
 I said yeah 
 But somehow, someway 
 I didn't know 
 Until people told me 
 That I suck and that I would die
 And I learned to jump out and come back 
 Sometimes!
