Education

Education is life. I want it but I can't. It is my need. Alternative learning I did. I am called immigrant. Oftentimes stateless. I am trapped of nation-state. When it was borderless. Now in a boundary. In history only we exist. I am never free. Never tied but trapped. I want to sing. Want to smile Like others Want to walk freely. But I have no legal document. I have only paper. I am sometimes called refugees. War and war Never in peace Because of tricks. Politics and greed. I am hopelessly drained. But I want to put hope in life. I want to live life like real life. Not a fake life. Doing fake smiles Fake happiness. I have kept it my heart. But I don't want to hate. I love peace. I love to love. I hug my self And I scream. I am finally free. I now can read Write and count. Thank my God! Lahad Datu. Dam Road Area. I love you reading. Layag Sug!
