Child Days

Hold me tightly
Oh sister
Oh mother
Hold me tightly

For I believe my body
Has mustered together
My last breaths

Oh sister
Oh mother
Please let all of this
Fade away

Oh sister
Oh mother
This is just a
Nightmare

You will be awake
Tomorrow
But I will
Not.
He's Just Him

Salman doesn't need
This and that
He doesn't need
All of this

Salman is just him
He's everything
In the world

He keeps every
Secret
To the depths
Of his soul

He understands
That not everything
Will always be okay

But that this cloudy day
May just
Fade away

But Salman
Just needs
Me.


The knot

Saad taught me
How to become
Someone much more
Unique

Much more different
He taught me how
To count the stars
One by one

He taught me
That every star had feeling
That they fell
Because they could no longer
Take it

He taught me
To be free
That nothing in this world
Is impossible
For me.

Destroyed Hearts

Children have fragile hearts
For they are like
Flower petals

Delicate
Yet soft
The may be ripped
May be torn

For tell my daughter
She is as these petals
So don't cry

For every tear you shed
Makes me lose hope
Makes me scream
In the inside.
Saad
The man next to him
Suffers less than he
But he turns
And smiles at him
"Sir, sir, why are you crying?
For everything will be alright."

The man is old
Made it to his sixties
He is weeping
While Saad is smiling
He has made it to his
Twenties
But he does not
Shed a single
Tear.

*~*Grits in Life*~*

Hello Salman
He knows that I am
Here
But he is 
There

He knows that I am
Crying
But he is
Smiling

The leukemia has kicked
Erupted
Yet he still laughs for
Joy
He has erupted joy that is
Needed

He has 
Hope
That there will be a 
Tomorrow.
