SAVE IT FOR ANOTHER DAY

When there's no one whom I am to call a friend

When foes like grains are scattered before me

And sadness like uninvited guest visits

My love, like a prisoner suffered in the hands of hatred

Jittery swept me off my balance lately

Like the tsunami, I have been jostled to and fro

By ill-lucks, I’ve been pseudo-loved

Like the naija police, dejection had gripped me

Defenselessly, my conscience is bleaching helplessly

Tossed about by pains and repercussions

My wings of love are broken completely

I wish you will forever be my solace

Your hands I need, succour to bring me,

From God, I ask for a life like this, so blessed

That wonderful grace, ever wanted

That life that would take away my hapless destiny

For, it’s another day to cheer God’s kind of love

A love so pure, yet without spots
