*UNSATISFIED SOUL*

You came on earth as a missed call;

Your short life served as a comedy show

Leaving those smiles deform into wrinkles of grievance

When people were engrossed in your life; you couldn't let them watch you even more

No solution can be carried out for your deliverance

You leaving for unknown destination is a big downfall

You are nobody rather unsatisfied soul!

Simple a rope my be; yet its poison is painful than a bee sting

The power of thoughts is what muscles don't understand

Thoughts can never be built in a gym, but for muscles are built in the persistence of lifting the metals

Failure to solve his problems is what has taken his life; leaving his wife behind to pay for rentals

Dear brother you would have worked on your muscles in the brain to increase the thinking capacity💪

The Muscles he fed with aluminum metal never helped him to dodge the darkest cloud the heavens have ever hosted

Fame his remains have achieved, yet his death is a solver to a lazy man who fails to put food on the table, eating while laughing is what characterises his funeral

My sister has gone; leaving her children alone
her death has saddened even her stomach; when life is enjoyable, her stomach still absorbing she varnishes in a speed of light

She couldn't have done that to the innocent body; her future was brighter than snow

Her death is still not real to me, leaving everyone on the stage stranded waiting for her to turn up in a show
She never thought twice; if she did she would have killed that though with a mental knife

Her veins closed up like engineers working on a tap; her words could not flow to cry like a rapper failing to rap

She could see how life was exuding out her own carcass slowly

Her body remained hanging like a cow put ups and down to loose its blood in a butcher

She could not mind if she had shuttered her dreams for all she wanted was to erase the future

Her face remained soft with innocent looks baked by a sunrise from east

While her beauty vanished away living the empty body stranded like a forbidden beast

The fear of being left out is what engulfs everyone; for the name may not be included in the list

Pleasing her master could have put her in a good stead of passing a test

Instead failure was following her path till she said her death certificate to be put to rest

Her body felt the bruises of a rough death; her soul was filled with a gospel thirsty

God is the creator of heaven and earth the giver and finisher of life

What kills man is what saves another man in a similar world of different thoughts

Nothing is worth living for when ugly problems strike unsatisfied soul

You came on earth as a missed call;

Your short life served as a comedy show

Leaving those smiles deform into wrinkles of grievance

When people were engrossed in your life; you couldn't let them watch you even more

No solution can be carried out for your deliverance

You leaving for unknown destination is a big downfall

You are nobody rather unsatisfied soul!

You heard the voice of your master; yet you granted him a death ear

He said; thou shall not fear for I am with you
Come to me all you who are heavy burdened
For my yolk is easy

Why do you keep running away from when things are good? Keeping yourself busy with riches

For my son I gave to you; instead you give me back failure; you unsatisfied soul

Your body on a tree tie; within a short moment you die; you unsatisfied soul

Without acknowledging even the life I have given; you go ahead to hung yourself you unsatisfied soul

The road you have taken is what you don't know; you are unsatisfied soul

Why have you given up so easily; when Jesus Christ conquered death for you unsatisfied soul?
