Sometimes
Sometimes,
I write poems,
Not because I'm Wordsmith,
But to compose pain,
That filled my vessels
When my smile feels weak,
To tell my family how I'm doing.
Sometimes,
I don't regret,
Being a victim of a dying nation.
Because my mother's land,
Obligated me,
To see diamond graves,
and beautiful guns.
Sometimes,
I feel like being alone
with my shadows
maybe that's the best way
To communicate with my friends and fear.
Sometimes,
I feel like the cloud isn't watching
the surface of its beholder,
For I seems to burn
It's bloom from blood-stained lines.
