My plea is for forgiveness <br />My heart is broken into a million little pieces <br />I have crossed the limits; and <br />Until now, <br />I too; <br />Am the guilty one <br /> <br />My plea is for forgiveness <br />I figured its the only way to redeem my past <br />I have done no practical evil, but <br />My silence did more evil <br />Than my hands had failed to do <br />My hands are soiled <br />Dripping with blood from the innocent's cadaver; <br />I have carried no gun <br />Yet; <br />Am 'the' captain in mufti <br />Falling more than in the Biafran <br />My guilt, being not in my acts but my refrains; and <br />Until now, <br />I too; <br />Am the guilty one!<br /><br />Bolami lawal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-plea-for-forgiveness/
