The sea refuses no rivers
The sea refuses no river,
Even if it could, it never
Showed resentment
I learned how to hide my feelings,
The emotional game became a contest,
I start with a genuine smile,
My pearly whites, my body postures,
I have given my oppressor over the years
Inner satisfaction, they thought that they had won
Because the counting was yet done
We have learned from Mother nature
She gives us the warmth of her son,
And some days the scorn of her daughter's winter
Deep within my soul, I know them for whom they are
Parasites,
The river and the sea communication are all about
Love and happiness,
Living in a world of injustice,
Who gives them the power and the form?
Globally, we stood there and watched.
