Dawn Of Darkness Poem by Kelly Iyogun

I sat For a moment, thinking all was well and in Order, so i closed my eye to rest a while.
Few minutes i dozed, but was awakened by
stench of murder, lawlessness had taken
over the city i knew and it seems to be
stretching miles.
Chaos sang our national
anthem, Disaster diminished our
prides.
Corruption headed our treasury
The sages warned me of this, they feared
this might happened and put me to take
charge.
Now I fear I have caused the
downfall of those I swore to uphold.
I fear I have turned my back to those I promised to back,
I fear I have brought a dawn of darkness to those I swore to shine my light.
Here I am hiding in fear, wishing and
praying that all was just another
nightmare and wake up back to the world
i knew.
But me and I know too well that the
darkness have come to stay, and it would
be long before it goes
