I SEE A FUTURE – BY AYODELE MOYINOLUWA F.

A future so bright
Overshadowing the mist of past woes
A future so sure
beating our past failures hands down
I sense a better tomorrow
not just for the best of them, but also for us
We were regarded as failures
tossed front,back and in between
Found ourselves in the midst of folds of intelligence
“Can we cope here?”, we asked one another
Like a sheep led on to the slaughter
we accepted the challenge, we refused defeat
we tried,we fell
Again and again and again
the strong ones encouraged the weak
We summoned courage again

we tried again
but this time,didn’t fall
We did it – together!
Unity,persistence, determination, self – belief
was our driving force
we got there! Don’t ask me where!
Here,in the future I foresaw in the past.
