' Time Poem by Efe Benjamin

Long ago when all was nothing but void
There exists time over untold centuries
Ancestors, beliefs defying normalcy
When from void was born love.
.
Modern man who sit in ponder to call a myth
With too many religions intending deceit
Love of a perfect God eluding understanding
Time to be born, time to die, time forever lives.
.
On many a day in thought have I lost my time
All is made to die that lives
Will I get a second time at life
To be all that is good, all that is right.
.
In vain your efforts wasted
In strife to look beyond all that is ahead
Must I cry for a thousand years
To shoulder falling tears of mine.
.
Must I run a thousand miles
To out-run fast pacing hatred in heart of man
Must I kill the God in my heart
To join in the train of satan's company.
.
But now and again I hear a voice ponder in mind
And he said 'Think'
Because you have broken my law
Because you that is man stand on all that is wrong.
