Stranger Poem by Omer Shahid

I am on a journey that is far and long
I know that this isn't where I belong
No matter what you say
I'll stay bold and strong

I'm like a bird separated from its nest
No matter what I do, I cannot rest
Because I know that there is
A place which has eternal bliss

I'm like a boat making way through the waves
There are troubles that I face on the way
But they can't stop me from being
The best person that I can be

Because if only you could see
What lies ahead for you and me!
Then may be
A stranger you would also be…
