Lawrence Abiaobo , Nigeria 

I WILL DIE TOMORROW

For the dreams never birthed,

for the promises soon to be broken,

that as the second counts the air you breathe mocks my lungs,

I apologise, for when the sun sets at day my sand with me shall it sink,

breathe within you a new solace,

that the memories we shared in nature's yard shall set a new course for you, 

do not lay in pain and in tears on my behalf,

but let the rain that falls as the sun shines cry for you each night when you lay to sleep,

this isn't the ending I envisioned, 

not of heartache, nor of shattered goals,

not of a broken family, nor of an abandoned spouse, 

but this is the fate I've been served, 

forgive my unfaithfulness to life with you, 

death has proposed riches in peace so I'll die tomorrow.
