Have I Lost It?

About my country

Beautiful place;

Myriad greenery and disparate plants,

Tall trees adjacent to roads,

Greenery universally!

Like a tree with its branches,

Lying down on the ground.

Hot summer,

With vibrant spring.

Cold winter,

With pallid autumn.

Clouds covering sun,

Beautiful birds, chirping,

Indeed, high,

Fleeing places to places,

In the sky.

Cold air, touching plants.

Chatter of those

Rushing in the markets.

Laughter of those

Playing in the boulevards.

The place I loved the most.

Where has it gone?

Have I lost it?

Or am I dreaming?

Where is the laughter?

And where is the chatter?

Where is chirping and where is singing?

Where is the paradise I used to live in?

Am I no-where?

Looking around, I know where I am,

It is the place I use to love most.

It is the place I use to live in.

It is the place that contained the laughter of children,

Along with chattering of people.

They have all gone,

But where?

Plants are pale,

Trees are parching.

Boiling sun and blank sky;

Gusting warm air;

Scorching buildings;

Blood-stained roads.

No chatter, no rush,

Hollow markets.

No cheering, no laughter,

Unfilled streets.

Everywhere void like darkness.

Petrified people,

Terrified children,

Horrified animals, even.

Where is my country?

We took off from there.

Saving ourselves from those,

Those who destroyed my kingdom.

The life is in danger

And no one is to be trusted.

Sitting desolately in the plane,

Saying goodbye,

Above in the sky.

Tears are falling,

Down my cheek.

Where can i get those,

Sneaky peaks?

To get to know

Is it alright?

Or should I let go?

Where is my country?

I lost it.

I lost it in this unknown world.

I lost it in the enormous world.

Where can I get it from now?

I can't; it is destroyed.

I will remember it.

I will remember it from day to day.

I will remember it, in every way.

I will remember it in every breath.

I will remember it until my death.

My country: a beautiful paradise.
