We pollute the atmosphere
We create open dumps and dig quarries
We emmit CFCs and detroy the ozone
We release chemicals to viable water bodies
Yet we say we care her

We shun from green energy
We want to drive petrol cars, guzzlers
We overfish, drive marine life extinct
Plastic and solid waste all over
Factories everywhere, are we saving her?

She feeds us, we pay her not
She cures our thirst, cleanses our oxygen
But what do we give her in return?
We kill her slowly, she is no longer the same
Talk of climate change, our very fault

God gave her to us to take care of
He commanded us to fill her with good
Now all she handles is evil from her care takers
She has mourned for the innocent
She has taken all the blame from the greedy

Please save her
She is the only one we are left with
Because when she falls sick or is gone
We shall suffer and many will die
Let’s show her the love she needs.

I thought of my loved ones
The ones I loved but never thought of me
How fake tears and love will fill the world
For a moment, it hit me that none of them cared

I saw Abraham by the flock
Job was there living his best life
Elijah was working on his fire chariot wheels
Jesus was telling stories to children

I wandered down to look over the abyss
Dark and bottomless
My feet became heavy, tempted to let me fall
I felt a hand over my shoulder

The voice sounded assuring
Encouraged me to fight on
But another voice distracted me
Come over, stop your misery

My life was over
I was going to give up
I couldn’t hold on anymore
I hope you forgive me

I took the rope, put it around me neck
Took the pills, hang my head
I was ready to go, I saw them cry
I felt the relief, finally, peace

Slept hungry, lost sleep thinking about them
Thinking of how best you are going to convince them
How you are going to prove to them you mean it
Ignored the signs because you thought they were perfect

You always wanted them for you, only you
You did not mind the toxic traits,you knew
You knew that deep down they were angelic
The infatuation blinded you

Now you feel rejected, they haven’t smiled back
You feel like they only deserve you
That you are the best match for them
And you forget no one is perfect

Now you are living in misery
You forced yourself on them
Now they are treating you like trash
But you can’t get out, it’s too late

You already connected, that’s what you ever wanted
You feel like you made a mistake
And you are sure you did, you cry
Because you are now unwanted

You are not rejected, you are dejected
You only convinced your mind its them you needed
Now they are toxic and a pain you can’t bear
The misery of being unwanted is now overwhelming.

Standing on that stool
I could see people run
The smoke that covered your hut
Choked my lungs

Some said you were deep asleep
I believed none
I braved the fire to come in
But there you were

Asleep, you looked
I carried you through the door
To the far corner so you get air
Pumped into your full lungs

Your eyes closed tight
Your body cold and stiff
Tears down my dry cheeks
I can’t forget last night

You told me you wanted me
That you will give me your life
I was happy I couldn’t find sleep
Why did you leave so fast?

Now my heart cries
To the supreme being
How could He let you rest so early
You were only ripe to be plucked

If it dawns and I fail to rise
If I go to war never to return
If I ever go to search and forget my way back
If I don’t show up on our wedding day
My lady, remember how much I loved you

Before he changes your mind
Before he feeds lies and anxiety into your heart
Before you let him imprison you in matrimony
Before you give up on me
My lady, remember how happy you were with me

I will go, but I will be back before sunset
I will leave early, it is not easy to be a man
Before I leave, let me leave you with my word
You are my one and only, I will wait for you
My lady, I will be patient till you are ready

You text each passing second
You call and say how much you miss me
You FaceTime to show me your new hair
Do you even do it for us?

There’s war in this paradise
There’s no one by my side
I let them off when you came
Now I’m all alone

Facing the only person I love
Seeing a reflection of tears down his cheeks
Eyes red from the cries
The mirror is my friend now

Why are we talking to each other again?
Why are we wasting our precious time?
Why don’t we let each have their joy?
Why are we buying this fake love idea?

Maybe we were too quick
We jumped into conclusions
We should have waited,
It couldn’t be hurting now

I am so sorry I have to go
It has been one he’ll of a roller coaster ride
As you walk down the streets at night
Single and lonely, remember me

I will remember you too
Your nagging self
Your jealous and egocentric nature
I’m sorry I couldn’t afford your love.

You heard my loud thoughts
I had already got out of my feelings
I had worn my resigned heart
My vision was now blurry

You urged me to hang on in there
You brought hope in my life
I suddenly felt worthy
Now Iknow you are Love

I won’t stop praising you
For you have been with me in my lowest
You raised me up, so high
Now everyone looks up to me

Who am I to act normal
When my heart is filled with joy?
I will dance and make noise
They must know your name

Lord, I pray into thee
Heal this world, raise its inhabitants
Let the whole race see your presence
Manifest yourself like you did to me.

Touch me right now baby, hold me
Do you remember how it felt kissing in the rain?
I still remember us counting the stars at night
How your eyes dazzled in the moonlight
Come to me baby, I miss you

I am all lonely, alone and a single depressed soul
Come heal me, take me back to the good old days
Smile for me one more time honey
Kiss me goodbye if you won’t be able to stay
Tell me you miss me baby

Far away he took you, I stayed still, I still stand
Come, hold my hand, take me with you
To the lands far away, show me the fairies
Tell me he treats you well, if not let me have you
You know I love you, and how much I miss you baby

I know that deep down somewhere in your heart
That you still care about me and you still love me
I won’t lie to treat you better than him, but baby
I promise to love you with all my heart, listen
My heart yearns for you, a kiss would do good

You lied that I neglected you
When all you did is love you
You forgot I existed
You were supposed to love me too
Don’t be mad at me, it’s all on you

I created time for us
You were booked all the time
Did you ever think of us?
I knew you wanted an excuse to leave
As caring as I was, I let you leave

I thought you were yo come back
I believed we were meant to be
I kept hoping and praying
I didn’t know I was only bothering God
Don’t take it too hard

Now I am with my better half
Your fly guy just flew away
Solitude is consuming your lonely soul
Misery dawned on your dark soul
Don’t be mad, it’s all on you

On nights like this, we used to laugh in bliss

On nights like this, nothing did go amiss

Let us make tonight our best

On nights like this, we endured the pain

On nights like this, we had everything to gain

On nights like this, we prayed for rain

Let us make tonight our best

On nights like this, babies were made

On nights like this, through the mud they wade

On nights like this, hurting goodbyes they bade

Let us make tonight our best

On nights like this, our parents fought

On nights like this, solace in God we sought

On nights like this, mere nightmares we thought

Let us make tonight our best

On nights like this, muratina was brewed

On nights like this, they knew they were screwed

On nights like this, into power rose the shrewd

Let us make tonight our best
