Poem of the week: CHILDREN OF A FADING SONG

By Eru Kobe Godwin

Through scars we came

A lost Origin

In tears we reign

A tale with no beginning

In dreams we find solace

The darkness came with hope

Tributaries of pain

We ran from the beacon of worries

A House far from home

We knew not the presence of a Father

Like a pack of lost wolves we roam

For food, shelter and fire

Our journey is been etched on our skin

We may lose the fight

But in our quiet hearts we win

A dusty book, a broken Harp

Symphony from an empty hall

Like clothing’s we wrap

Oh! Sorry why linger so long

A Tourniquet for the children, of a fading song
