Through the darkness, there came a light
Though so far but yet so bright.
I close my eyes and look deep insight..
I walk this darkness without a fright.
...
I vow to help you love life
To always show you the warmth of my care
To always be by your side at all times
To always hold you in tenderness
...
There exist this perfect world
α world full of our amazing dreams that will unfold
α world beyond others imagination
That is kept alive by our exhilaration
...
Though miles come between us
And distance keeps us apart
Nothing can ever change
The love inside my heart
...
I always knew love will come find me some day
But never did i know that it will be you who is headed my way
You caught me off guard and took me by surprise
Happiness and peace i feel each time i look into your eyes
...
There is something about you that I just can explain
Am addicted to you and I just can't abstain
The way my heart beat each time am close to you
You made me realize so much love I never once knew
...
I have a dream,
That one day man will evolve into a unique creature.
I have a dream,
That our dreams will be brighter in the nearest future.
...
They say the last thing to leave a man is hope
As he gets to the end of his struggling rope
His faith and believe gets to evaporates into the thin air
As he is faced with day time nightmare
...
Love isn't just a single word or feeling
Said to tickle an ear and leave you reeling
Nor is love abstract and void of care
...
A ring of humor, that I came to own
Along with it, a heart of stone
Given with love, accepted with a smile
Only to have it last, just for a while
...
For all the steps that were never taken
Moments that were never made
Dreams yet to be awaken
Memories that will never fade
...
It's often said that true love comes but once,
Truly in your case it came with α bunce
Should i say letting u go was the worst thing i have ever done
And the greatest mistake i have made under the sun
...
Since the time of creation it has lasted till now
And still yet no one knows how
Or why it has been through many generations
With no sign or atom of segregation
...
You have always been the best friend to me,
teaching and showing me what others could not see.
Blessing me with everything you do,
even when other showed me hatred with their boo.
...
I look at the exit door and i see her,
With the mirage of her shadows from afar.
I look at the past and i see her smile,
A smile that lasted for a while.
...
One of God's blessing to a man,
Is to send him an angel in the form of a human.
Each day i keep thanking the stars,
For blessing me with a friend as amazing as the stars.
...
I look at the entirety and the complexitity of life and I begin to think
I begin to imagine to a point where my thought became my ink
Looking at what people have to go through
Just to get to see life in a perfect view
...
I never believed this day could exist,
The day i met an angel i couldn't resist.
She sat in front of me with that incredible beauty of hers,
That can heal even the deepest scars.
...
I don't know how it got to this very point,
But i know i'll always be there to care.
I can't say that every thing is ok,
Because i can see the tears you're crying.

The Light Of Love
Through the darkness, there came a light
Though so far but yet so bright.
I close my eyes and look deep insight..
I walk this darkness without a fright.
I clutch this image like a precious sight,
The one that sets my heart alight.
I hold that thought and now I write,
With the thought of us on this night.
I travel this road to find affection
I now edge closer and taste perfection.
The darkness evades, I've found protection
I reach this light to build my connection.
My strength has now so briskly grown,
I no longer feel I travel alone.
I continue to proceed on this empty path,
The wait is long but I show no wrath.
The star may seem so far away,
I set fourth my travels to meet that day.
I hold my faith and wait these years,
So far I've come, its worth those tears.
I stand, I sit and now I stare,
I look beyond me and see you there.
I've found the light and now I smile,
I've found my strength to crawl this mile.
I accept love like its my treat,
The thought is real, I'm now complete.
I hear sweet voices in my head,
They say my path is clear ahead.
Some just try but yet they fail,
The unconditional love that we prevail.
I had my freedom, I made this choice,
I found my love, I now rejoice.
I never believed I'd find this love,
Like that beautiful star from above.
I questioned love and what I feel
With you I learnt my love is real.
I love the poem, the key to life. It is of great inspiration. I am arranging the lines of the poem into stanza and verse so that students could sing it as a school anthem. Congratulations Stanley Chuwunonyerem Oguh for the powerful poem about education. I am an above left knee amputee and much of my time is spent reading. I hope one of these fine days you will hear the song being strummed on an acoustic guitar in C major. Thank.
