IT BREAKS MY HEART

IT BREAKS MY HEART

![

My name is Nigeria.
I was born with pride, and humble
Under camouflage of gleeful waters
That shines the gallantry of my soul

I live in a world full of thorns and roses,
Full of desires and hope,
That ignites my strong passions.
Yet, I frits under fearsome shadow
Embroidered by unexpectations.

I dream with high visions,
And enthusiasm pats my back.
And humility crowns my head.
Heaven calls me, " my dear black gold"
King of men, born of strength,
Yet the world I lives in, do not accept greatness.

It breaks my heart,
When will the cold war be over?
If brothers murder brothers,
And drink the blood of their sisters,
Who will ever be there to guide the next lineages.?

It breaks my heart
When the unborn son cries,
Under the womb of their dead mothers,
Who will protect their soul from fire.?

It breaks my heart,
They put a scorch of blade on my skull, and whim the innocents with daggars rope

Yet, If I wave it away with bravery.
Inspite of my torn burnt bones,
The vagabonds in my house,
Refuse to listen to my own songs

It break my heart,
That they have become tyrannts
Bidding under the bullet proof cars,
Killing their brothers and looting my treasure
Oh, what a horror,

It breaks my heart.
Until the deed is done,
The home leopard won't hunts and hunts
Haunts and astounds men of vice and ignorance

If The prince i Intend to crown,
Will stand after the war is over.

Then I shall rejoice, and seat back.
On my throne of gleeful waters.
To sweep away the sorrowful years and tears Of my fellen hero.

It breaks my heart.
