Days of Pain and Sorrow

Days of Pain and Sorrow

A Poem by Nima.Hope

God I wish I were in America
Seeing my sister without being afraid
to be killed because of Hijab
The high priced liberty
seems too far for Iran
Saw my people fighting
against the dictator king
through bloody photos of the past
Walked in the street with a photo of the king
an old man saw me and
in a sudden burst into cry:
God bless the king
When these days finish?
Is this God's punish?
When will we breathe freely?
When will we speak freely?"
I ran so he would not see
an 18 year old boy want to cry
I cried cause stil
there are dozens of ways to try
The joy for us,
Iranians, wasn't an option
at all.

You will breathe freely when fresh air blows through the lands. You will speak freely when oppressors are buried in the sands. To be in America is the call of many hands. Your tears fall where many a boy stands. This boy would be willing to cry for the justice that freedom demands!

Your poem sings heavy with poetic commands,
billigami

sad story of the middle-east.
Thank you Gee.
Liberty should never cost like this...
it is so tragic when there are no options...
we people cannot breathe or speek freely...
Dictators need to have their balls removed.
