BY D RIVER SIDE

This will be my abode till that day
Where I will see no one but trees and sea
I am cane in my home; I cry out to Rome
I know where ever I am
You can see me but why do you leave me to be beaten
Why do you leave me to be flogged?

I will wait until you tell me to move
My heart is poison and can’t reason
I am perturb about the end
Will you ever save me is all I ask

I am not worthy of calling you for help
Neither! I am expecting you to help
But what can nail nail better than a hammer
I can’t say anything than calling you now
Please I need my home
Dear Lord comes to my rescue! ! I need you
I am waiting by the river side.
