Don't Lose Hope By: E. D. Oghre


"From the pen of the sad and depressed kid I present to you" 

So today I was really sad and so I told my friend.

And guess what she said.

She said; Don't Lose Hope.

I was like; No you don't get nothing is wrong.

But she said Don't Lose Hope.

No you are not getting me.

The Night is Dark.

It looks like there is no End.

Everything is coloured with doom and gloom.

The future is bleak.

But she said; Don't Lose Hope.

Friends and family have left me.

They turned their back on me.

I am all alone in the dark.

She said; don't lose hope.

What don't you get; Everything is gone.

I lost everything, My reputation, My money.

She still said; Don't Lose Hope.

The love of my Life left me.

She broke me.

Don't you understand that, I am Broken.

But she said; Don't Lose Hope.

It's Over.

I just feel like quitting.

I am tired.

Still don't lose hope.

What is the use of hoping if nothing ever come out of if.

Why plan, why work.

When you will fail.

I mean its hopeless.

And I am helpless.

But still she insisted.

Don't Lose Hope.

Please understand; I have too.

There is no hope.

I can't continue like this.

I am about to die.

But she still said; Don't lose hope.

Okay; I give up.

You know what; You win.

Why shouldn't I Lose Hope.

Give me a reason why I shouldn't
.
Then she smiled and said.

"Don't lose hope cause its all you have"

Then i realized, No matter how terrible the situation.

The moment you stop Hoping, You stop Living.

"So remember" 

No matter how bad it gets, Even when its Hopeless.

"Don't lose hope cause its all you got"

Painful letters By: Marvee

Every time I feel this way This terrifying kind of pain These twitchy palms and muffled sobs These weakened sights and mindless slob I would think of something To put me at ease, anything At times, to leave my world And be someone else, not a dud Often times I would write on plain sheet Write till my limbs felt weak Write till the page is covered in ink Write till the painful times shift.                                              ©-Marvee

The So Called Queen By:Salawu Olubunmi

 _The so called queen of the zanger A woman of misery and deceptive appearance Wags tongue in a swordlike How angelic she be when seeking the honey frm it's comb With her romantic but deceitful display The first sight of her left me in dismay First encounter with her was heartrending Such a sweet poison A devil in disguise wit an angelic face The so called queen can neither be embraced nor avoided.

THE GCE GIRL By: OLUSEGUN AKINSANYA

Every year we welcome into our community several teenagers between 13 and 17 from far and near. They are both male and female. They have the same mission. They have come to write General Certificate Examination (G.C.E). Most of them are penultimate students in secondary schools. These little fellows have been fixed at centres nearby to write their exams and the people that brought them have accommodation as part of the payment agreement. Some of these children are leaving home for the first time. Some of them look like mom's pets. Immediately they hit the town, you see a lot of ambiance and noise, something like a carnival. They make noise in the morning while looking for water for domestic use and in the evening when they are back from their different centres. It's always a new experience for most of them, and they seem to enjoy it: yea, they seem to enjoy being away from home for a whole month, a kind of escape from the eagle eyes of their parents; they seem to enjoy a t...
