Ode to departed souls

By Atok Dan

I’m talking to you departed souls,

many of you have gone,

but you seem silent over events unfolding,

why many of you have gone earlier,

it is you colossal souls,

you sacrificial lambs of the struggle,

though you are not watchful,

your souls still linger in wilderness,

in vacuum

I know most you‘ve gone,

with no visible decent graves,

with no read obituaries

but the cause worth it

It is you the gone souls,

A day is designated for you

to know, you still indelible in our memories,

it is July 30th of every year

21 days after our independence

in that day, we celebrate because of you

you had championed the course that claimed your souls

millions are not happy because of you
