Khembottra Oum Poems

A pain that grows
grows like no other...
Not like a flower that blossoms
from the ground.
...

I saw her crying the other day
By herself and I wanted to say
Its okay, Its okay.
...

When heaven falls on everything that is blind,
colors will appear between those broken lines.
Oh Ghetto Bird, be like the moon if you can,
in the night, let your light be the only plan.
...

I fell in love a thousand times,
Never once did I feel truly alive.
I cried with the night sky,
Along moon drops of heaven's light.
...

The Best Poem Of Khembottra Oum

Divinity

A pain that grows
grows like no other...
Not like a flower that blossoms
from the ground.
More like a burning cigarette
in the night.

Heroes know well
what real love is.
Mannequins on display
are lucky...
They never have a fixed pose.

Truth is always attached...
to something that can't be seen.
Sad eyes that dream...
can dream
What no one else... can ever see.
