Time

Time - Agbonyin Victoria  Time Oh ageless icon! Dear to everyone  Like the heart is to the soul Tick tock tick tock Your popular anthem known by all Just like water, no one can get a hold of you Everyone wants more of you But the sad truth is, you are never enough You are held in high esteem by every man Yet you wait for no man Always running with those fast wings of yours The best friend and greatest enemy man have got Sometimes you are there by his side Another time you are running against him Oh ageless icon! A gift that can never be done away with Son of man seems to be at logger heads with you I guess the war continues Till the silent taker -death comes between you.                                                                           Melody writes✍️ I am Agbonyin Victoria ...

Can anybody hear me?

Can anybody hear me? -  Adegboyega Oluwafemi Samuel Can anybody hear me? I don't need your sympathy! I mean, just like others you have laughed at me Your compliment won't work this time  Can anybody hear me? I'd say my tears are just fuel for my restless dreams Then again, my existence is nothing as it seems Ohh Our father who art in heaven, why must I suffer more? Why have you made collecting my tears a chore? The stares I receive, Like I shame them so bad But the truth is, I only wanted to try Try and fight for what I had Now here I am with this lonely broken soul Awaiting my faith in this pitch black hole. Can anybody hear me? "I am not a preacher of love" said the prophet. What familiar words, words that my parents always rang in my ear I was happy once But never again Will I stand  for your ignorance  And suffer your pain. I look out my window And plan my escape But the more I accomplish The less steps I take. Year after Year, the true me remains ...
