Our Sorrow Is Our Fault by pauldesimple(m): 8:13am On Nov 28, 2012
We are hungry
In our country
And helpless
In our states
Even when we have all it takes
To festival for years without break

While others had little or no natural resources
We remain the sources
For nations
To function without limitations
Yet we live painfully
While they live happily

While we go for peace keeping missions
In many nations
Our land remains
The site for blood rains
Cause by boko haram
And violent crimes

While we go for 'Made in China'
At the expense 'Made in Aba'
Without effort to uplift it to international standard
And make it our brand
We build other nations
As ours move towards extinction

While we yell
That our leaders make us live like we are in hell
We forgot that our duties for our country
Most had handled with levity
