Poem
Where were you when I was three, where were you when I was crying out for thee, I lived in the bosom of the sea but no one came and look for me, I learn to fend for myself and when the times get tough, I had to take care of myself and make up my own bed. Where were you when the bomb explode in the town and the people took cover on the ground, I had to crawl on my belly to the sea and bury my face in my hands so that I could breath and if it wasn’t for the snail in the sand, I would perish in the clustered air. I recall this moment so that you can feel what nature has in store for me. Where were you when I was hungry, cold and sad, and all I needed was an helping hand, I wasn’t asking for much, all I needed was your trust, and now that I am here you have turned my life into a nightmare because I have nothing to share. I will live the life that was destined to be until the universe set me free. Shadows of the evening creeps upon the mystic shore with silent feet walking in an unfamiliar space leaving footprints in the sand and a message that no one could understand, the water rides upon the shore and somewhere a tiny hole in the ground that leads to nowhere became their biggest fear. Strangers spread out all over the beach sitting in little chairs absorbing the stench of the salty evening air; the sun passes through the wavering clouds and absorb the moisture from the wet sand but the boisterous waves keep rolling on and somewhere in the underworld ancient souls buried with time return to the surface and mingle with the universe to break the wicked curse. There is a hole in the ground that no one can see, it is the hole that leads to the bottom of the sea. When mankind become exhausted on the land and the poison of the earth pollutes the air, that is the only place to escape to breath fresh air; the pilgrims know where it is but the travelers are still searching for it beneath the bridge. It has been there for many year and nature has more to share. Where were you when you were trapped in the sea, where were you when I called you to come and rescue me? Where were you!
