Abder Derradji Poet Rhyme

Refugitive

I am the migrant soul,
I am the fugitive from fear,
I am the scapegoat tool,
I am who made life dear,

I am what they want me to be,
I am a fugitive..And a refugee.

I am an alien...an intruder from space,
I have no status..Nor rights or place,
Whatever I do I'll be the same,
Whatever I say I'll have the blame,
What a disgrace! And what a shame!

I told them that I have only one face,
I play fair, compete and race,
I even pay taxes..I keep the country tidy like they do,
I walk straight and tighten my lace,
That no one could slip on and creates a case,
To make my life hell...to make me lose face,

But they still decide to keep the name,
To act in double and remain the same,
What a disgrace! And...What a shame

CayCay Abder Derradji September 11, 2015 at 2:58 AM Thanks CayCay this one has been published some time ago during the early 2000 or so, in an anthology book in the USA. And thanks for your comments. I added it here as the problem of refugees is still ongoing now! thanks once again. A big hug Abder
