DARKNESS SURROUNDS
It is still night
Darkness surrounds
And I sit in a small space of light
Inside I write in quiet and peace
Outside the War goes on
Once I knew what it was to live
Without others trying to destroy
What I most care about
But that was in another world long ago
For forty years now
I have lived with their hatred
And their trying to kill us
For forty years
There has been violence
And the threat of greater violence
It is quiet inside
And the darkness is everywhere
I go on in this tiny space
Waiting for the morning to come.
This great poet writes the TRUTH. Read it so you too may know it. And may the people of this country never have to face anything like this. But remember, and know it for our Truth, they are after Us Too!

I would like to translate this poem
Sad as Sad can be! 40 years trying to be free, Trying to survive, Wars not willed. Darknes Surrounds, read It!
