Truely it was the freest and fairest <br />As we inked the paper willingly <br />Along with our collective conscience <br /> <br />We voted the man who ate our hearts with happiness <br />Whole world knows <br /> <br />From the north to east <br />And from south to west <br />And around the four cardinal directions <br /> <br />Together we stoodby. <br />Cheering here and yonder <br />Like an hungry dog that catches a bone <br /> <br />Abiola we cheered you by <br />Even your enemies noded to your victory <br /> <br />Suddenly the opposite arrived <br />With a tone of being annulled <br />And the world stands still in sorrowful silence <br /> <br />Infant cloud began to weep <br />With a loud voice while sun is shinning <br />Our tears together flown <br />Into an endless pit. <br /> <br />And the whisper of deceit <br />Is louder than the weeping of truth <br />Certainly our grimaced face may later smile<br /><br />Adesitimi Taiwo Damilola<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/june-12-2/
