I Am Poem by Frederick Baka

I am me
I am the future of today upon
Whose shoulders
The dream of the earth rests….

I am me;
I am the rejected fate of the land
Left to the feast
Of the cannibals in the wilderness

I am welter
My strength drains and my breath same,
The future appears gloomy and shuttered
But yet again I am me

The odds rise
And the former rise against we, the latter
They have lived for years
And have seen many
Inexperienced as thou seeth me
I am still the hope on whose shoulders
A better tomorrow stands.
