SLOW TO HEAL

Kenneth Aje (BR9) 2022 (NIGERIA)



Words that hurt
Dreams that souls are ready to evict
Opinions blackmailing tommorow
Hurts when you can't get ahead of the future

Only if I could stretch my hands
Back to the passed past
When people throw words at you
All you say

They truly don't know
What's going on in my mind
Afew knows whole
They pick up script of being a hypocrite


They act more like strangers to you
Ego will surely go into exile some day
My genuine intentions towards them
Totally different they are ignorant

It hurts so much
You feel you don't exist
Once you breath feel pain
You remember yes am human

You want to hurt me
You hurt them more than I do
Why this second thought order
Who is using and doing this to them

I promise I won't change my opinion about them
I might stay far just for my hapiness
I won't keep hate behind
I being happy worth alot you can't buy it
