Unless Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Unless

You don’t know what it’s like
Unless you, as we are
Are deprived.

You don’t know
You don’t know
You don’t know

What a waste to tell you
To these things, you blind

You don’t know
You don’t know
You don’t know

You don’t know what it’s like
Unless you, as we are
Are deprived.

Wish you did
Wish you did
Wish you did

Not deprived
Not deprived
Not deprived

And in need
For water
Or a bite

You don’t know what it’s like
Unless you, as we are
Are deprived.
