George Egba - Who Is Save

When the wire breaks
Three steps almost to the center of the bridge
The hands will go out wide the breath will shake
Dreams will ask where will i lodge
The soul will say where will i be
The spirit will sing i am going home
The bones will sigh back to worms
Each manoeuvre form
And the shadow follows no one
The breath ease where the journey cease
The day stop and the night breaks down
Next to you the dust tease
The moon hide the sun fades
In the sky appear the rainbow pale
That is life held so high
Like the christmas bell ringing round roses
Valued for gold good enough for dust
For stories and memories few and forgotten
No more honeymoon no rainbow
Beach parties no more snow
No more horse and horses race
And if all can be save

George Egba
