Prisoner of Love

PRISONER OF LOVE

Though they stay in the same hat
Share the same bed, same cup and same toilet
We can still see a laugh in a sea of sadness
Because one is in Africa and the other is in Europe

She is cute as a bug’s ear
Dressed in white as snow
The hall is clean like a whistle
Watching to it was like watching grass grow
The man swims in the sea of diamonds
Because this is Africa

Before her anger bottled up
Before her tears started flowing down her cheek
Before she ceased to be the light of the man
Before she stopped raining in his inner heart
She was in her own world
Not this Africa we have

Her boss can do it at a warning cost
But she has no right to be heard for
Because this is Africa

Chronicles of Man

CHRONICLES OF A MAN

Born to a single parent
But not raised by any
Neither would you ask why?
Because the man has no mercy

I hear them whispering in a boardroom
Later in their laboratories
They just make him weak and not weaker
At least I could have parents by now

The man is still with us though weak
My siblings are yet to be orphans
Victims of these lazy scientists
Let those oriented, innovative come
Kill before they loose us

But still we cerebrate his existence
The man unite Nations despite
My parents got paid for him
Eventually the man killed them
