  • The shame and the complicity

    The fire the cries, the smell, the shame A young man, a patient dies in sheer pain, As a humanity we all share in this blame How many times should it occur again, Before we see it’s unacceptable and needs to change Or we are guilty of fanning those deadly flames, By doing and saying…

  • I see you

    Rushing here and there Covering your despair, But I see you and I care I will wait for you to be aware, That I am here always for you You’re visible to me and that’s the truth, Even when you feel like you’re unseen I see you because you’re my waking dream.
