What Went Wrong....?

22.09.2017 LISTEN
By Shadrack Oteng

Many of us started so well
Our infancy indicated we had a story to tell
Of greatness and fantasy as well
What went wrong that our life is now like hell?
Many of us at the beginning looked promising
We were epitome of heavenly blessing
The very definition of 'person'
What went wrong that we now study the 'had I know lesson?'

We were born with greater prospect
Nature endowed us with an immensurable talent
Our genesis showed our success will be permanent
What went wrong to the talents God freely sent?
We started so well with the learning of the scripture

Our infantile eyes searched the gospel picture
So early did we start hunting for Christian literature

What went wrong that our beginning doesn't reflect our future?

We sowed the seeds of love with courage
In the beginning of our marriage
We wrote 'forever for worst' on our marriage's first page

What went wrong that our marriage is affected by damage?

We started our relationships with decency
Towards one another we started showing mercy
Our initial meetings and kindness were plenty
What went wrong that our relationships are married by dishonesty?

Where is our initial seriousness?
Where is our initial ingeniousness?
Where is our childhood curiousness?
What went wrong with our ambitiousness?
LETS SIT,REFLECT AND CORRECT WHAT WENT WRONG
