Nigerian Am azubuogu chinwendu from Nigeria a student of University of Lagos,love writing
Am I just a father? Who am I to them? A medium in which they came to life A portal to earth, a passage to love I want to be more to them A guiding star, a sheltering sky A safe haven, where they never say goodbye A role model, showing them how to fly A teacher, lighting paths they can't see A best friend, laughing with them wild and free A good listener, hearing what they don't say An observer, watching them shine in their own way I want to be the light that will shine through their dark days Who am I to my kids, who would they remember as when I'm gone? The one who loved them bigger than words can say I want to be even more than all this to them The heartbeat they carry, the roots that make them strong

AM I JUST A FATHER
All I do for money isn't driven by passion, it's fueled by pure hatred for poverty

MONEY
I lie but punish it to be truth For you to believe I hate but put up a fake smile To make you think I like Jealous of what you have I don't Pretending I'm so happy for you You've got all the cars, why can't I? You've got all the girls why can't I? You've got all the money why can't I? Then you got all the looks why can't I either

THE PRETENTIOUS ME
If its what you can do why worry? And if it's what you cannot do why worry.

Why Worry
How can two hearts that was meant for each other became a war-zone , they forgot how it all started Was it euphoric feelings Was all those years of pure love just euphoric , Am still in shock to see this two lovebirds fight and broke things I became scared of love It frightens me Vividly i could recall how they walked on the road holding each others hands All the kisses on the wallstreet All those vacations , picnics Now what i see each day is war Screaming out loud, yelling at each other all night, breaking things This is disaster i said How can this beautiful love story end with disaster

DISASTER
Today i celebrate myself I am strong I am smart I am fearless I am unstoppable I am kind I celebrate myself Not because i have it all But because of how far i have come I have fallen several times but i rose, became stronger I have loved and also was disappointed , it makes me emotionally stronger I have failed but i learnt from failure I celebrate myself In my little way i put smile on people's face I try not to hurt anyone that cross my path I celebrate myself Because i am who i am

Celebrate yourself
Be grateful... We sometimes focus on what we dont have and what we havent achieved, Forgeting what we already have We are breathing today and thats something , Alot has been thrown to us and yet we stand firm, we are still here , Stronger and better We might not have rolls Royce We might have the mansion we crave for Yet those that have all that are 6ft below, but you are still here Be grateful for once

Who do we run to when our leader's or do i say rulers no longer care about us They promised us "CHANGE" The word "CHANGE" is flying in the air Our nation is in total ruin Cost of living is skyrocketing daily Food is no more affordable nor is it accessible Our nation is feeling this devastation Only politicians are well to do They have forgotten about us They have forgotten the promise made to us They never came any close to fulfilling their mandate When l look at our politicians extravagant lifestyles I asked What about US What about all the time they said they are the answers       In my country , Those who care to give or share dont have to give or share     In my country , Those who have to give or share, dont want to give or share The masses are kept in the mood of despondency It seems to many that all hopes are lost Some after having their last meal, they wait for death to come While some take their lives either by jumping off the bridges or taking a highly concentrated chemical down their throat . Who will redeem our nation Who will revive our  economy Who do we run to when their is no food in the country Who do we run to when price of fuel is skyrocketing without control Who do we run to when rent is no more affordable to the masses Who do we run to when every good thing in our country  can only be accessible to 5% of the country's population Nigeria is our country It is not for the politicians to take, Not for the 5% well to do Nigerians to take Nigeria is for all of us We love our country Thats why we are lamenting We are tired of being victimised in our own country It is totally unjust and its affecting everyone either financially,  physically,  menally psychologically or otherwise ... How do we get our dream Nigeria

ECONOMIC HARDSHIP IN MY COUNTRY NIGERIA
Who do we run to when our leader's or do i say rulers no longer care about us They promised us "CHANGE" The word "CHANGE" is flying in the air Our nation is in total ruin Cost of living is skyrocketing daily Food is no more affordable nor is it accessible Our nation is feeling this devastation Only politicians are well to do They have forgotten about us They have forgotten the promise made to us They never came any close to fulfilling their mandate When l look at our politicians extravagant lifestyles I asked What about US What about all the time they said they are the answers       In my country , Those who care to give or share dont have to give or share     In my country , Those who have to give or share, dont want to give or share The masses are kept in the mood of despondency It seems to many that all hopes are lost Some after having their last meal, they wait for death to come While some take their lives either by jumping off the bridges or taking a highly concentrated chemical down their throat .

Meeting you is never a coincidence,we are fated together It has been ordained that we will met on this day I thought I lost it all but at the end I gained even more all because I met a special lady "U" We might be far away Distance doesn't necessarily ruin a relationship, because we don't have to see each other everyday to be in love It Is true that angels are made to be in heaven but some angels are sent on earth to do a special work and am glad you are my angel I was dark before you came, i had no love, nor a heart, as i was lonely, full oh shame, but now you are here, and our love will never be apart Your beautiful face light up my world each time I look at your picture I love to see your beautiful face that makes me say God Almighty you are really great Your voice so powerful that It brought me into the world  Into the world of laughs and smiles  That walks along with me everyday To bring me joy for endless miles  Am here writing about u Singing about you Dreaming about you Thinking about you Playing back all your voices Looking at your pictures to bright up my day Remember to say me Hi to your beautiful nieces All I could say is God thank u for creating that beautiful day I set my eye on you CHIAMAKA

GOD BLESS THE DAY WE MET
SHE CANT SEE YOU BUT I CAN She can't see your eyes light up when u smile, And she can't even notice how u stop and look at her whenever she passes by And you can't see me being in love with you,wanting you every minute like you are in love with her, But you are all I  ever wanted she can't see all of u, all your love and care but I can I just need a shot for me to show you who I am, and let you know for how long I have been wanting you Always staring at u as u walked pass my street and never stopped wishing that you are mine She can't know how u wish u could have her but i know cos I also wish to have you I know you are in love with her , but she can never love u the way I want to But only if u knew me We could be unstoppable, beautiful and unbelievable together There is a light inside u that can't help but shine through But she' never gonna see the light no matter what u do All I think of is how to make u think of me And all that we could be I just want to open your eyes so that you could know that someone else sees all that your are,the love u wanna share and the care u wanna give Baby let me love u, let me want u Because she can't see the way your eyes light up when u smile And she can never know how u feel whenever u set your eyes on her.........BUT I DO I love u but she can't I see u but she doesn't
