YOU CAN LIVE FOREVER
You can live forever
By what you do,
By what you say,
By how you live
Every day
You can live forever
By how you touch
On all you meet
And wearing smiles
For that is free
You can live forever
When you shake
With the hands of time,
And when you go down
Your name will thrive.
I WORRY
I worry about the world
And those that still breathe,
For the dead have found rest
And stillness their peace
Their lips hold no truce
About religion and what is true
About cheats and who to sue
I worry about the world
Arguing on
About who is right
About where Earth came from
The dead mock us
Their chests heavy with
Earth upon it
I worry about the Earth too
With humans on it
When will Truth lie?
In state and be bare?
For many to behold her face
Those who care?
I worry too
About the nature of peace
For truth and peace
Are intimate realms
Yet, invaded by pain and bliss.
DEATH AND LIFE
As cold as winter
As hot as hell
Death still dey chase us
As if we don fail.
As real as blisters
As bold as boil
Life get flipsides
Like say na coin.
