At first, I was confused
And then, I got angry
And now, I am sad.
Now I understand that
Deprivation is a subtraction
In life that leads to total damnation.
What justification is there
For my action or was it a reaction
Caused by provocation?
This is truly a confession of a crime of passion
That has left me in rumination.
Murder is no solution
But at that particular time,
It felt like the only resolution.
My father, my mother, my brother
I have disappointed
And my sister to whom I
Should be a perfect demonstration
Of perfection I have shamed.
My nation, still undergoing construction
With strong devotion for capitalization,
Socialization, commercialization and
Fair administration to achieve Alleviation to globalization,
I have demoted.
If only the hands of time could be
Turned back, my people I tell you,
This would entirely be a different narration of
Appreciation and felicitation.
My people, please accept my sincere apology.
