Walking In The Darkness

Evans Udozie Enyiorji 1986 (New Jersey)

Free verse
Walking In the darkness
Is an enemy stalking you daily
From the second you sleep
Till the day you weep
Look at these souls of greed
But watch as I plant the seed
For those in need
Look up I've got souls to feed
I'm lyrically inclined do not test me
So go somewhere and get laid back
Stay back before you get paid back
Because now your on stage black
