I Praise God (Moyinoluwa)

I cry for a child unloved.
You were the strongest of them all,
For a loved child has everything.

I feel so lost.
How could you leave me alone?
Am I not to lead the way?

I taste the sourness of a love un-suckled,
My breast heavy at knowing that was your last.
Your father’s loins downcast,
Thinking you were almost a waste.

I get solace in your journey,
Your life put mine on the path
The path I would forever cherish
For I knew you before I lost you.

I praise God for the bliss of ignorance,
The greatest test of faith.
God knows the reason for your journey.
