I smiled

I smiled I smiled for a while . Then stopped, frown came but why. I was born to be rich, But exploited by the poor I am blessed by nature to the core But I lost the opportunity to the bitch. I remembered that destiny can't be changed So I smiled. I was sold by my so called leaders Bought by my predators Pushed out of home with no successor Then left all alone. But this are the reason why I am strong So I smiled. I was crowned a king But stabbed at the back, They saw that I am black. Then thought I am a ling But I am rising So I smiled . Far, far away from home I work day and nights. But my rewards comes with plight More lessons thought So I smiled Life is a battlefield. They struggle to live well, At the expense of others. They're full of hates, but pretend to love You can fool all the people sometime but, can't fool all the people all the time. So I smiled. By Chibuike Egbuikwem.
