The Refuge’s Diary
The Refuge’s Diary
Torn, grimy, and failed on dusty ground
I saw an exercise book around a dirty place
And picked it as I stood from near detachment
Then took it to my sleeping area to the verge
Beside the village’s main boulevard, I were conceit
And I did put it on my shabby blanket
The time reached to be a night
All streets bulbs started to give light
I wanted to sleep as the usual, playing with stars aloft
As I did supine, in that pacified warm moment
I opened the dirty exercise book to read it
It was a true life; suffer due to war, cause to migrate
O! how a poor and a street man cries
It was impossible, I wanted to neglect
The warm temperature became cold, the sky also looked to wept
But, I couldn’t, the last pages did oblige me
Losing a family, crossing the desert, hunger, and thirst
I became so sad, my eyes dropped tears before the rain came from the firmament
