THE BLOODY GREEN LAND




In the ugly  presence of war
I only see abundant peace
Even when the bombs are exploding
I hear no sound
Though evil men have captured the atmosphere
I fear not
Though the tears in my eyes have decided to betray me
Because my mindset is getting use to the news flash
“ BOKO HARAM BOMBS A CHURCH IN JOS WITH 200 PEOPLE DEAD”
" BOKO HARAM ABDUCTS OVER 200 FEMALE STUDENTS IN BORNO"
Our leaders are  more confused than we the people
At night our elites draws the map for them to execute
And in the morning we cry and beg for intervention
Everyday we get assurance by the government and international community
That they will end this ugly face of terror in our once green land
The next minute another bomb explodes
Our green land has turned bloody
Even when we are crying for them to bring back our girls
They held on tight. Tighter than tight and stronger than strong
Though sooner than later, we shall overcome
Yes we shall over come this ugly terror
But we must collectively fight this terror as a common enemy.
