reflection
precious akpos 2003 (edo state)
reflection they made me!!
what have you done to me?
why are you scared of what you have given to life?/
you taught only i would suffer!
creating thy self have become pain ,
when insetting you have not forgotten to add tears to it,
now my flesh is made out of grief:
and it shine every time the eyes of the sun hits it:
shine and shout of other pain and hardship,
now callers from my flesh voices call!!
how dare you shout for help and salvation?
you must be in my flesh also calling out like this voice,
you have taken salvation away from their mouths!
you what have you done,
you have seen how deep you are into pain
cause am your reflection
how dare you!!
why did you make me so in grief??
