No Opologies
I make no apologies
I am natures child
Risen from the dust
Only to return when I die
I make no apologies
That I sauntered when you tried
But I lauded the accomplishments you derived
I make no apologies
That from the spring of my youth
I have grown old, learning the truth
I make no apologies
Though tears I cry
Of a fading love about to die
I rode your waves,I explored your oceans
But I was sunk with loveless emotions
I make no apologies
For taking flight
Leaving the darkness
Seeking the light
I make no apologies
For the colour of my skin
My big brown eyes, my stubbled chin
So formed and blessed with African ways
Glowing brighter on sunny days.
