We take a blank sheet, to write what we will And press it against our naive hearts—convinced Believing in our lies—our convinced truth They come in styles—naked and pure Naked and pure—we immortalize them Here! Every man dies To his perfect conviction. Joseph Hope from Enugu state, Nigeria, is a writer. His works have been published at Nthanda magazine. He is currently studying Applied Chemistry at Usman Danfodio University in Sokoto. When Joseph is not in the lab, he is either reading or writing poetry.

I love the message. This poem captures our strong convictions as humans. I have noticed that we humans try to convince ourselves that our actions are always right and are done for an understandable reason. Really wish the poem was longer, but I still love it!
