It's Over Now Poem by Ojeikpo Elijah

It's over now, the journey's long,
All the pains and labours gone,
Even the unceasing tears cease,
Our strength tested, our wills tried,
But we've conquered, we've survived.

It's over now, the midnight weeps,
The foes who boasted, with their might,
Tried to shatter, our inner light,
But we stood tall, with courage true.

It's over now, the world of chaos,
And now their threats, they can't pursue,
The twinkle of night, no longer feared,
For all the darkness, has disappeared.

It's over now, the sting of death,
We've found our way, through the dark,
And left behind, the enemies' mark,
The mirror, once held their disguise,
But now it only reflects our rise.

It's over now,
We've broken free, from their deceit,
And now, their defeat is complete,
The battles won, but scars remain.

It's over now,
Reminders of struggles, endured in vain,
But we wear them, like medals of pride,
For they're a symbol, of how we've survived,
We stand here now, with heads held high.

For it's over now, the tears have dried,
The pains, the labours, the foes' boasts,
All just memories, of distant ghosts,
We've emerged stronger, from the fight.

It's over now,
With hearts full of hope, and eyes full of light,
For it's over now, and we've come out victorious,
Standing tall, proud and glorious.
