An immigrant man

An immigrant man has no land his own,
no language to speak, son,
only soil to lay his pains,
words for his sorrow.
Hopes for return.

Return to where he once belonged.
A beautiful land near the seas
with dry breath and poor seeds,
wrinkled burning faces.
Waiting a tomorrow.

But tomorrow never comes.
Captive among the few
in mercy of the ruling,
bloodied hands.
No choice, just run.

An immigrant man has no land his own,
no language to speak, son,
only soil to lay his pains,
words for his sorrow.

Round and round

Implications,
inspirations,
insinuations.
Yet, you lie there unresponsive,
heavily breathing,
numb and alone.
A carousel of horror.

Round and round and round
lifeless misdemeanour.
Yearning for air
with the heart departed.
Yet, she walked away.

Round and round and round,
a crime in my mind
