I am Tivoli
Not my country’s enemy
But a lovely garden
Created free to bloom
Can’t you see?

I am Tivoli
Not here for pain to engulf me
But to be all that I am here to be
To shine from the lightness of my soul
Not to be raped in the night
And left carrying painful memories
So deep inside my soul.

I am Tivoli
Roughly broken from the company of my innocence …
And now my lonely tears are teasing,
And showing shameful flicks in the presence of my Jamaican eyes

I am Tivoli
Tell me,
what right do you have to be so unkind to me ?

What is to become of me?
