From a Distance

Form  a  distance  i  can  see  the  world,
From  a  distance  i  can  see  its  people,
From  a  distance  i  can  see  everything  in  it.
A  from  a  distance  i  can  see  the  cruelty  performed  by  men  on  men  and  
animals.
From  a distance  i  can  see  the    harmony  among   men ,
From  a  distance  i  can  see  the  pleasure  and  pain  in  it  mindless  people  
acting  mindlessly.
i  never  mind  staying  in  it.
But  i  mind  living  with  its  inhabitants.
And  i  stand  on  the  mountain  top.
Looking   down  at  the  great  confusion.
People  hustling   and  bustling  for   thier  living.
Where  youngster  do  not  respect  their  elders.
Where  citizens  revolt  against  their  country.
But  yet   still,  life   must  go  on...........and  on.
From  a   distance  i  can  see  the  world  like  a  stage  where  actos  and  
actresses  play  their  parts.
From   a  distance  i can  see  people  dying.
Some  as  early  as  birth.
I  love  to live  in  this  world,but the people  in  it  makes  it  a  mess, so from  a  
distance  i  would  love  always  to  be.

Apology

Dear  mother  earth,i  came  but  now  ive  regret my  coming,   who  brought  me  
is  dead  and  gone  leaving  me  to  roam  causing  a  lot  of  crime  against  
humanity.
I  do  know  the    dangers  ive  caused,  the  lives  ive  wrecked, the  future  ive  
destroyed,i'm  feeling  very bad  for  the  sorrows  am  inflicting  on  so  many  
people .
Dear  mother  earth  please  tell  your   kids  i'm  around  ,let  them  stop  taking  
risks  to  there   graves.
Mam   tell  the  young  ladies  that  are    carrying  me  that  there  is  moe to  life  
than  me.
To the   young  men  i  say  your  future  is   still   bright  and  sparkling  you  can  
still  make  impact  and  transform  others  that  may  want  to  think  i'm  not  
around.
To  my   angels,the  kids,  just  ignore  me  and   think  of  what  you  will  become  
in  the  future  ,above  all  forgive  your  parents  ,its  not  there  fault  neither  mine  
but  those  that   brought  me.
To  the  single  parents  i  hate  taking  your  mother  or  father,husband  or  wife  
away  please forgive  me  and  always   cherish  their  memories.
To  the  orphans  i  cant  confront  you  to   say  sorry  ,please  mother  earth  beg  
for  mercy  for me  and  tell  them  i'm  terribly  sorry.
To  the  world  at  large  i  say  i  hate  being  around  causing  you  the  pains  i'm  
causing  you  at  present.
For  the  sake  of  humanity  and  especially  the  orphans  here  is  what  to  do  
to  get  rid  of  me,
Know  i'm  around,live  safe  in  all  aspect,and  for the  sake  of  humanity  here  
are  the  things  to  do  written  on  my  back.
"I  want  to go  back  please  help  me  to  go  back  i  know  i'm  not  welcome  
and  please  dont  welcome  me  .A-abstain  from  all  risky  practices
                                                             B-be  faithfull  to  yourself  and  others.
                                                             C-concious  use  of  condoms.
                                                             D-discipline  your  self  .
                                                             E-educate  yourself  and  others.
 Yours   sincerely  Hiv/Aids.
