Agbola Oluseyi's 'Bit by Bit' – A Poignant Reflection on Struggle and Resilience 🎶

Sitting still on the bitter seat, <br />We were beaten seriously by the heat <br />Striving to beat the situation <br />We fell on the bridge of continuation <br />For it only goes bit by bit <br /> <br />We want to be the one to beat <br />To snatch from life, all our meat <br />Wanting to beat the record with tear <br />It's just like one beating the air <br />For it only comes bit by bit <br /> <br />But we stood on our feet <br />We are not filled with our wheat <br />Gathering all, we tried to rush <br />But we only beat around the bush <br />For we only get it bit by bit <br /> <br />Looking into the future with a bright eye <br />We see ourselves above the sky <br />From the womb to the tomb we always hope <br />But it seems we cannot cope <br />For it only get bright bit by bit <br /> <br />This then is the word for the world <br />Little here, little there when it is held <br />Makes that mighty ocean you can see <br />You can't form in one day, your desired sea <br />For it can only happen bit by bit<br /><br />Agbola Oluseyi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bit-by-bit-6/
