AN ANTELOPE KILLED A LION

 In the jungle the lion was always respected and glorified for its strength.Whenever the lion gave a command,it was to be followed with no question at all,not even the fastest leopard would or the biggest elephant would resist his reign.


There rose a problem,drought came and everything was cleared living a bare land,it was left for every animal to fight for its life,it was a matter of feast for survival,the herbivorous animal were at risk of extinction.The situation was fatal,in a rate where even the animals that fed on plants,had to eat flesh for survival.

One day the antelope was walking in the bare jungle,searching for food for its young ones,having walked for a long distance,it was extremely exhausted and hungry.At this instance it was clear that if it could not find anything to eat,it would definitely die.At a distance from where he stood,the king of the jungle,the lion,was lying below a tree,due to thirst for water,from the look of it,he was dying.When the antelope saw him,although he was hungry and exhausted,he was eager to help in any way.

The lion could not even move an inch.Both the animals were dying,and so the lion being the king of the jungle,gave the antelope an order,to kill him!!This frightened the antelope so much.The lion asked him,"can you do anything for the survival of your youngones?" "yes I can!"the antelope replied."then kill me and feed my flesh to your youngones."

The antelope killed the king of the jungle,and fed his young ones flesh,it was not what they were used to eating,but it was better to keep them alive.

THE KING SACRIFICED HIMSELF,FOR HIS PEOPLE...

"an antelope kills a lion!" it may seem like an achievement for the antelope,but we all know it sacrifice!


My question is, WHAT HAPPENS WHEN AN ANTELOPE KILLS A LION??


The story is a reflection of our day to day life...

TRUST IS A JEWEL

 Trust is a proverb that we misuse in our composition about our life.It is a proverb that needs intervention from from experienced characters.characters that knows its background,its roots.Before you trust anyone with your heart,ask yourself,do they really deserve it?Most people  have failed in life just because they trusted the wrong people,but do we take time to know the people we trust?


Trust is jewel but also a weakness.The people you trust can either treasure it or use it as your weakness to put you down.You can't trust a monkey to look after your ripe bananas,you can't trust a murderer to keep your life safe.Some friends are like wolves in sheep skins,a murderer in pastor's collar.People are not hurt by their enemies but their friends.learn to put your trust where it deserves.Take your time before trusting anyone.TAKE CARE OF THE TREASURE!!

LIGHT OF THE STARS DIMMED BY TEARS OF THE WORLD

 


It is in the middle of a confused hour.I try to drive my attention away from too much thoughts causing my sleepless night due to imminent circumstances.At a distance through my window,am obsessed by this glowing star which differentiate itself from  every other source emitting light.In this star,I see hope,I see a dream come true.

But there is something coming,a cloud,it is almost covering my little star.As the light of the star fades away,I  see a dream shattered,I see hope lost.The clouds are dark and I notice the world is in tears.Am left in a dilemma that I can not explain.



Am still in a dillema cause I don't understand why is the world in tears.The moon's light is pipping through the clouds,hopingto regain its night freedom from the clouds.Effort bears no vain,but I see hope,I see hope coming from the east,I see hope showing me light, but the clouds still want to continue rulling.

when a lion roars even the mighty elephant runs for its life.This hope is signified by the sun,the clouds have no otherwise but give up,he lost.A new hope is born,A new dream is awaken,but without the clouds,I will never know that life is not

FRAGILE WORLD

 A world full of fingers pointing at each other,is where I lived.If blame was a  spell,you can call us witches  and wizard.We are never proud of who we create in the process,The blood in our veins is darker than  the deserted underground gold mines.We  run from the  truth,but hide in the devils warehouse.Our success story has no difference from a misfit fairytale.We pretend to be happy,but behind our mask,is a wounded heart.We trusted in our own shields,unfortunately they were compromised by our inner self,to be the weapon that destroyed our lives.Getting back on our feet is a dream,hoping we help each other up.How can I trust the one who gave me bitter water when I was thirsty? How can I trust them whereas am still coughing out water from the last time you left me to drown.We lock our hearts when they approach to knock,the edge of our tongues are sharper than the guillotine's blade.We sharpened them with our own decisions.We bend the metal bars caging us from the freedom of acceptance.The irony of them all,is we turned dumb from the truth.Search for your better version,because we live in a fragile world.

OWN WORLD

 If you woke up and found the world moved on without you.

All your diaries are in ashes,and their memories of you,are not existing.
You try to cry,but your eyes are dry from tears.
Losing their life,by recovering yours,Is all they fear.
Living for a rhetoric dream,only for a roof to look up to.
Working on achieving a world of your own,but loneliness crashes all your walls.
The smile on your face, can't relate with tears like a waterfall,on their world.
Remain or move on.
Decide or take on.
Love or hate all.The road to your castle is the safest, cause no one dares to step a foot on their own shadows.
The past with you is a story they never narrate to their kids,cause to them,it doesn't exist.
You try rebuilding, but you can't build a dream without an extra hand.
You live in ruins,Your shadows haunt you,and all you wish for is for sunlight.
The fruits on your basket are rotten,cause you've filled yourself with unworthiness.
Look up and see the moon fading away,the sun is rising,all you need to do is accept your Own World.

TEARS OF NATURE

 She smiled,she knew it was time to make friends, it was time to share what she held in her hands.

 She gave them oxygen, she gave them food.She gave them shelter.Her family was always against the move.She held hopes high,that the act was an unshakeable foundation of love.
She covered them with her canopies. Gave them a fresh drink from her overflowing rivers,honey from her families of bees.Little did she know they would become her predator,She would be the victim.
She hid them from bullets.
Years faded away and all she saw was betrayal, their selfishness.
 She regret ever giving them space,ever giving them shade.She gave them shelter but they wanted more.
Her feet covered in blood,they killed her family.
She batter traded her kindness but got betrayal.
Her family still protecting her.She is nature,she gave us food,she gave us water,she gave us shelter,In return we destroyed her.We destroyed her world.
We caged her hope and love with selfishness. Who will save her.Will it be her family in the wild or the few kind hearts from her selfish friends?
 She is weeping,She is wounded,She is bleeding.These are the tears of nature.

MY HIDDEN TREASURE

 Am all in an official suit,waiting for the hour to knock.It is your day. It is the day I will remind you how you broke my calabash of loneliness and put me in a castle of love.I will remind you of how I found you listening to my favourite music.I will remind you how I held on to you,when I thought you were crying. I will remind you,how you smiled when I asked for your number.You once told me our love is made of more than diamond it is unbreakable. I will remind you,when you said yes, and I was waiting for camera rolling,cause I thought it was all a movie.Our love is a product of something more than suffering and sacrifice. Today is that day,I will remind you all that is on our shadows,because all I wished for is your happiness. Delete all the messages I ever sent you,and set ablaze the gifts I ever offered you,cause they are all enfolded in past mistakes. Remind your mother I'll always remember her birthday. Create our dream in him,cause he got the chance to win your precious heart.You're a lottery that I lost. A jewel I misplaced,but you are my hidden treasure.
