I often lie awake
Precisely in the middle of night
While the world is fast asleep
I can't just comprehend
What has become of our world today
The world that has torn apart
War here and there
Fear of terrorist attacks is the talk of the day
And it's getting a bit more dangerous for us
So as our life is also precious
In our world today, some live with stress and pain
Never experienced the pleasure of rain
For them life seems unremittingly gloomy
And each time I remember
How these people are suffering
My heart cries for them
And with tears upon my cheeks
It's just as if I could make a peace
In our world today, we make ammunitions
For no good, but for our own destructions
Though we have wider roads
I keep wondering why our minds are narrow
We have more than enough experts but less common sense
We spend millions on fruitless ventures
While millions are living in complete poverty
Everyday we live with fear
While some people live with tears
In our world today, we continue to explore Space
But here on earth, we failed to create a space
Not only to house peace and unity
But also to accommodate uniformity
This is where we're making a mistake
And what we're going through is really painstaking!

Writer Profile
Adeyemi Adisa
When I examine myself, I see writing as the only way to express my thoughts and have been wasting no time, however little, in ensuring that I express myself. This is an inspirational thought, potentially instilled in each and everyone of us, but the ways we express ourselves is the difference. I hope to meaningfully make use of most of my time and positively share my thoughts with others. You can check out my site (www.yemmmmy.co.nr) for more of my articles and poems.
