SIGNALS

 

Dear sir(s),   

 

since our conscious

sends us signals

that it is hard to

follow your actions

we cannot

drown your hopes

into the oceans,

nor let your kids

seeing their dolls

washed ashore.

For some gold,

we shall not dig holes

into your courtyard

and replace it

with sugarcoated coals.

Never we will                                        

displace your heart

into the faraway lands

then trade your blood

for the entire world.

Turning your mansions

into lifeless ruins

is not what we’ve planned for,

as the power of our tear  s                         

is enough

to mirror your smile back

into your eyes

and dazzle them with

infiite fears.       

Sarwa, February 2016
