A Dawning Tomorrow Poem by Benyeakeh Miapeh

Too much pride leads to shame
Humbleness is tossed to grave
we're tripped under the dark secret of evil tongues
A Christian nation without sight
We live on the surface of pains,
Pains of yesterday that are stuck in our memories
Like broken vows
Our integrities are over shadowed,
The dark dreary reality of our culture is fading
And we're sinking in the deepest part of ignorance
Power holders use it as weapon to kill the poor

How can I laugh?

When leaders are killers
They dance to the cry of innocent souls.

We are Liberia,
The backbone of Africa,
It's time to take toes
I can see a sparkling new Liberia,
A Liberia that'll live under the canopy of culture,
A new beginning with peace
Where happiness will ruin
And equality will whisper in every ears
A dawning tomorrow is loading
With no echoes of evil
