The City

Crying, walking alone
And no matter what they say
My people just talk
I hate the city
My people kill each other
By the guns in their tongues

The fake smile on my lips
Walking alone and the people
Just ask me some addresses
Who cares the tears
I must be hurry up
Death waits me over the city

Dear Naghmeh, your melody (Naghmeh) is sad, mine is always painful. I said it once, " Which one is better, which one is worst? Drowning in water or dying of thirst." Happy days

Thanks so much Kamran. I hope for you too. I wish for all people who are under pain, injustice and war.
