A Painful Walk
Dreaming of better hopes
A sound of unaccomplished future dawn on me
Breaking my codes of rise
Creating a theme of defeat on a banner i tried to design
But my unflinching fate i clinch to
A quest of transformation
I longed for all my life
Flags of victory i wished to wave
But the thorns of envy threw me to the shores of the helpless souls
I moaned, they laughed
Been the pointed item in the minds of every buyer
A reckless society i made a home
in my quest to rise, a friend of differences
i align to
a different culture i tried to birth father
nevertheless an uncharacteristic behaviour of my fellow brethren
i experienced
a lighten of discrimination was i strike with
on the grounds of colour, origin and tribe
a treaty i sign to subscribe to unite
an antidote i tried to create to inject into the bodies of my fellow brethren
just to form a formidable side for peace and unite
success beheaded my stress
Victory became my game of play
I dreaming of better hopes
Hope to rise but not fail
Hope to make the impossibilities possible
To soar
And soar higher than the falcon
To unite and promote peace
But a painful walk i embark on
