Amanda Basaiawmoit Poems

Hear my story
Just listen to the silence
For it was there I found myself
There is music, there is pain
...

It is not that I was made different;
Its not that I am born strong;
Its not that i do not feel pain;
Its not that I do not cry.
...

For someone who teaches literature;
Poetry does not come naturally.
Its as difficult as algebra,
where I forget the equating expressions.
...
