tat
ya hear that?
another round
locked, and loaded
where boys,
are forced to be
men
and women
are raped
and children,
throw
stones
until a bullet hits the skin
piercing within
the gentle flesh that God made
My skin is worn
my heart,
heavy
and my mind,
must constantly evade
the darkness
Yet I am light
and my spirit
it IS strong
it flies with the midnight moon
chasing stars
supernovas
faster than the speed of light
stronger than the wind
more powerful than the sun herself
shining
celestial majestic divinity . . .
Aged.
I am
Kashmir.
