Different
If you come and ask me
to understand things
as the world understands
then you must be disappointed
as I have developed my own ways
and they are totally different
to perceive those than the rest of the world
since the day I understood
that I am an individual
so the world can not make me understand
and agree with them
that war is a necessary
as the eyes by which I see blood
in wars are not theirs but mine
how can I disbelieve my ears
as I hear the cry of a hungry child
And sing with them in the same tune
that the world is doing fine?
