I stared solemnly at the silhouettes far of in the horizon,
I once saw a glimmer of hope, without a second thought I knew hope was coming,
I was once free, I calmed my nerves because I knew freedom is near my doorstep,
My days of worry is finally coming to an end.

A banquet I prepared for my visitors,
Sorry, you're definitely not going like any other visitor
Am holding freedom hostage, afraid for it to leave
Am in a battle with hope, hoping to conquer.

Good days should be near if am not mistaken,
Why does it feel distant ?, so so distant!!
Maybe I was wrong,
I shouldn't have thought ill of the one controlling my fate,
Am not qualified to regret............ it will take longer for the raging storm to calm.
