Happy Independence Day Nigeria,
My home since I was born
I think of you everyday,
even though I am not your biggest priority.
Everything I do is so that we can be together,
Not just for together sake,
But in happiness and love.
I want us to be strong,
but you treat me like I'm unimportant.
You watch me when I'm sick,
but you refuse to help me get well.
You tell me to fight for us,
but you jail me when I try.
You say that I can make us great,
but you stop me from even taking a step
I love you.
No!
I hope to love you.
No!
I can love you.
No!
I will love you.
Yes!
Just give me a chance to love you.
I promise if you let me,
I will not disappoint.
