Heal Me

Social Poems

Come and heal my pain

His shattered heart prays in the rough streets

Alone in the night listening to the refugees scream

He suffers everyday

But no one knows his name



He stares at the moon at night

And wonders what will he eat

He begs for money and sometimes steals a fruit

His mother died when a bullet crossed her womb

Luckily enough the janjaweed are doomed



He is seen in the market place

But he really has no place to rest his head

Last month his tribe was vanished

Today hatred fills his head

Who might this child be?



The photographic memories revive

Every time his eyes are shout

Dark horse led the way to hell

Blood, bullets whizzed by, mom and dad died

These images constantly play in his mind



Come and heal my pain

He screams through the dark nights

Loneliness and hate are his companionship

He cries every night

But no one knows why

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Dedicated to all the orphaned children and people from Darfur that are been abused by the janjaweed because of stupid racial discriminations.
