Poem
Title: Host Of Tears
Poet: Apeh Alexandra Ojima

If this battle end tomorrow,
I will tell thee today that,
The moment host the tears.

I have gone far and near round the world with tears
Right here with my clan all day,
Thinking of been a man and not to be,
But, the moments host the pains.

Oh yes, am yet to be a man,
Clearly I see what is with me
Differ to that of those they called my peers
But, I believe the moment host the tears.

Even when I saw her on the highway,
Across the thousands lane in ojota
Where flowers sing song while differ motors drum,
Left for me to dance the hidden step with her while standing with the singer
In the cold empty region,
Oh! I didn’t due to the moment.
The moments host the pains.

Oh there she come, God what should I say?
Should I ask her of her mane this empty?
Will I be called a man standing on nothing to be called a man?
Oh never mind, the moment host the pains.
