Deforestation (Olagunju Olayemi Josh)

With tears and water, I will confessed my sin.
For i have seen stars and beauty that behold the night.
The Evening bell has beckon upon me the dreamer in a dream.
Because many were blind, 
They call you factors of evil.
Whereas, you lonely and peaceful in your wrath.
Let black blood flows into your blood,
Let the spirit of servitude in you turn to
negritude,
Let the beauty of all black nights string into
your veins,
That it may gives you happiness in all
Your daily evil,
Yesterday, It was a story,
The giants that fell our shrub among the
poplars
Thence we were seated among the eminence
of evil,
The caterpillar that wash away the fresh
forest,
And turned it to an expressway,
And stranger inherited and work on our portions.
Fresh roads can hardly be seen
now-and-days,

Who told them we were not satisfied with our
horses and Carmel ?
They have left on us a permanent legacy that
may linger us into non solidarity,
Who told them we want trains,
That they fall our forests and build railways
Inplaced,

They have feed our mouth with poison,
That we now speak such scurvy terms against
our own culture.
I will continue to weep into water till my tears
kill the fish in big oceans.

I surely know the color of your eyes. But till then, Stay wherever you are and be with me, keep yourself just the same way am keeping myself for you. For I'm still waiting, Waiting for the queen that will sit beside me forever, till death do us...  Waiting for the bone..... and flesh of my flesh Waiting to see we two as one My dear I have kept myself safe in His arm, Cus I know the Earth is not safe for the heart, Though, some years back I was a captive of a large audience, but n

Just to say thank you

Just to say thank you I know I'm not perfect But you love me anyway You accept every piece and bit And make me smile everyday You picked me up from the mouldy pit, You blessed me abundantly telling me that's just a bit. Thanks for the fear, Thanks for the tears, Thank you so much, many lost years.
