SUICIDE

www.facebook.com/olaboyea




My heart pumps 
Higher than me 
Signaling, 
about a journey 


The world 
Not always fun 
Battles 
Ever on, never done 



No restriction, let’s explore 
Let's break 
Break to the alternate universe 
For no limit to knowledge 



A journey, a journey 
one afar off 
A journey 
Of no return 



A journey 
Of no return 
Without survival 
To meet our people, our own 



Let's bridge it 
Put me through the chasm 
Let's be devoted 
To this in totalism 



To those who went 
But never came back 
For the brave ones who stayed down 
Amidst struggle of life 



I can taste their disappointment, 
So sour, 
I can feel their anger, 
Powering destruction, alkaline 



I've dug their graves 
Postmortemized on their dead bodies 
Ate the dust 
Every single earth crust 




With disdain we gulped at them 
Our view? Superficial 
our treatment? deriding 
Forgiveness, away and beyond 



Unless we go 
Unless we meet 
Unless we see 
And promise of no repeat 



Fear over gut 
Confidence over death 
Me ready 
All I need is a partner.
