Laments Of Pain

Laments Of Pain I have known pain, I have known pain to be an unpleasant sensation. To inflict suffering with an unjust decision. To create fear, discipline but suicide isn't an option. I have known pain since the struggle at childbirth. With tears like that of a stillbirth. I have known pain for as long as I've lived, For all that I have were bereaved. I have known pain since my childhood days. Where being poor is classified by feeding on grains. I still hear the cry of the native berger, Caused by distress insatiable wants and hunger. I have known pain to be the darkened gaze of a widow. Whose light has being seized by death through the window. And all she had left is an old mirror - For her to reflect and God to Him she call unto! I have known pain to be the feeling of empathy. To the deceased who are now at peace. I have known pain to be the brutal killing of farmers- In their fallow farmlands. I have known pain to be the feeling of anxiety towards change. In a country, where our leaders clamour for negative change. Without them considering the future of this great nation. So our economy won't be in jeopardy like toxical nature. I have known pain to be the act of fraudulent activities- In a country where her citizens are glued to cybercrime. While the law enforcement agencies have abandoned her constitution- And the youths are ready to kill in swift action. I have known pain to be the lack of zeal for education. In our country where academics is joined to vocation. To create more opportunities and employment in our nation- Where amalgamation has caused greed for power and destruction.
