Dana Amer Poems

There is a shadow that is following me
With every step i make,
Slowly it moves towards me
Approaching me with extra care...
...

Here am I, searching between the pages
Of my old diary book,
When a sudden anger rages
Of how similar my days actually look!
...

'Sweet', as a red ripe strawberry
& 'Smooth', as a well composed melody,
That's what I want my life to be
& this is what I wanna look back & see…
...

One year has faded
& a new year just started,
Carrying on it's shoulders
A dream that crossed the boarders...
...

Day after day& year after year
everything happens all over again,
you can tell its the same fear
48,67 or 09 they all had the same pain.
...

Oh my land keep holding
Let your peoples' blood shine,
Don't worry i will keep fighting
Because tomorrow you will be mine!
...

It is so hard
For me to live in this world!
Am I that bad? !
Or did all other souls get sold?
...

Here i am, taking a step forward
To be a better person,
A nerd me is really awkward
I feel like I'm another someone!
...

It's a feeling
Of being different,
But in such a way
That isn't good...
...

When no words are spoken
While time goes by,
Hearts start to feel broken
Because others never say 'hi'.
...
