We Love You Mozambique

Someone 
In this world 
Really wanted to...


Separate us! 

For what reasons? 
I don’t know! 

But! His plan 
Really worked! 

We are so separated 
As if, we are not 
The same! 

Same person! 
This is a person

Same people! 
These are people...

But now acting all 
Strangers! With 
Survival of the 
Fittest instincts!  

“I will destroy you...
Before you destroy me”

Has become our fun 
Made, united mantra! 

The enemy of a man is
A man! Why can’t we
Be man enough 
And love one
Another? 

We are lacking love 
In this world! 

Love deficiency 
Is causing all these 
Confusions and problems 
We facing everyday! 

If we can’t love each other
Then who will love us? 

Animals don’t love us! Because 
We abuse them everyday! 

Plants don’t love us! Because 
We are harassing them and 
Burning them everyday! 

Who will love us? 
If we don’t love 
Ourselves? 

What value is money 
If we can’t buy away 
All the scarcity of 
This world? 

And we enjoy being 
Happy...What are 
We celebrating? 

Are we normal? 
Or abnormal? 

What is normal? 
What is abnormal? 

Who are we? And 
What do we really 
Want for ourselves? 

The best I can say is...
“God Have Mercy On Us”

You created us for a purpose! 

As we did not create ourselves 
For no purpose.
