Description: The inspiration to write this poem came from the scene of a murder some months ago....whereback in my university as i watch the "guy's" corpse been carried away after rival cult groups killed him that afternoon in school....
He lays lifeless
As sympathiers watch his helpless Corpse
Not knowing what to do
The university he had come
Now he leaves
Without an accomplishment
He had long being here(university)
Here he is;
With a liveless heart
On the place he had longed for
What a world,
Our campuses had turned into
Where students turned killers
My heart bleeds for this generation
Oh! when will the killings end?
Academic pursuit seeketh all of us
With one vision
Why then this killings?
Oh; students of likemind
Let's stop the bloodshed
For the future is ours
We cannot but build a loving heart
And see our dreams come true
We must set a pace
For generations to come
For in our campuses
Lies the foundation
Let peace reign today.
* now he leaves without an accomplishment... Has he really? Does his life show in your work as to suit a purpose? As does my work on Child abuse, if I stop an belived I live though that for no purpose then my life for 29 years has been worthless. He served to put the word out on how life is there. It is a shame one must die to get the word out and I am sure if given the choice he might not have chosen that, but we shall all pray for peace. Sometime life does not give us a clear path so we have to tramp around in the fog until we reach daybreak. Don't get lost in the fog, have faith in yourself to know it will clear. Take care and I will be reading more of your work. I would suggest in your writing, to release your anger more. I feel so many trapped emotions let them flow through you and unto your paper. Dana
