deep tears
one of those days they will turn off the lights and let us scream in the dark with our hands tied at the back of our heads.
for safety they will wear a mask and point a gun at my our heads.
now they have declared us dangerous.
will our agony be felt?will our existents be be known?
i asked my father that after the war
he told me that i am just a child and i am undefine
the drop of my tears is just another drop of salted water
the marks on my arms is my mother's tribal marks.
my father never told me anything i wanted to hear.
he thinks i will become foreign
unknown to my surrounding.
as a parent
cant my father live the pain i felt and comfort me ?
