Africa glowing

When I fall, I know I shall rise
When am held, I know I need to hold

When am laughed, I need to laugh too,

When I mourn I shall be mourned

Only then, can I know to love in this life time,

What shall stop me, Love? No! War? No! Barrenness? No! Husband less? No! Diamonds? No! Gold? No! AIDS?

That is what Africa has taught me, that despite it all, love is what they can't take away.
