Nigerian Fallen soldiers - PrettylifeStylez

Spread the love

This poem is for the Nigerian fallen soldiers

For those that fought for humanity

And for those that humanity fought unjustly

For those that were killed in battle

For those that died of old age and those we never knew

For the activists that died fighting for a better nation

For the lights that were put out during abortions and as stillborns

For the pensioners that toiled till immature death

For those taken by natural disasters and sickness

For those who lived with accident defects and birth deformities

For those that died of insurgencies and terrorism

For those that lost hope and committed suicide

For those that propagated the gospel their whole lives

For the Rashidi Yekinis, Fumilayo Ransom Kutis, Samuel Okparajis, and the Fela Anikulapo Kutis

For the Herbert Macaulays, Chinua Achebes, Festus Iyayis, and the Dele Giwas

For the Chibok girls, Michael Imoudus, Ganni Fawehinmis, and the MKO Abiolas

For the Margaret Ekpos, Stephen Keshis, Dora Akunyilis and, the Benson Idahosas

You lost to death but fought in life

Your swords bear marks and the sands of time testify

The earth show proof of your footprints and the air bear records for your memorial

We will keep your good legacies and speak of your brave acts

That for your heroism, we are who we are.

Dedicated to Nigerian fallen soldiers
