Dearest, Keep Fighting. Poem by Oko Emmanuel Agi

Dearest,
I know the waiting has been long
And being successful seems like
What is never to come

Each move you make is blocked
Each heart you choose is taken
Every road you walk on gets rough

Where's God? Doesn't he answer prayers anymore?
The ones you love are gone
And now you are all alone

My dearest,
Cry no more
For your time is coming
Where your sun would rise
And never again fall into the sea

Until then, let's hope
All this would be stories we tell our children
When our glory days arrive.
