It died on the street, it was<br>
speared by the thorns of roses.<span class="text_exposed_show"><br>
It’s soul ascended with the scent of the bloom<br>
To the dreaded gate of Jahannam, And<br>
It’s condemned body laid on a damned earth,<br>
In a pool of it’s own precious blood,<br>
And nectar, which it’s been stealing<br>
From the garden of an enticing future.</span>

 Omotayo Awoyemi </a>
 </h4>
 <div class="be-author-meta be-author-description">Omotayo Awoyemi is a Nigerian word weaver with global vision, a medical student at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria. He was living solely in his 'world of science' until sometimes in 2012, when he bumped accidentally into poetry. Since then, poetry kept welling up in him like an uncontrollable chain of nuclear reaction. The future is clear to him as he is set out to earn a Nobel prize for literature, not minding his science oriented background and health-based life.</div>
