Woman Screams From The East Poem by Shahad Raad

My life like a wish on a shelf
In a dusty corner where the time had been stopped
Waiting for a hand from the hope
------

My life like a wish on a shelf
Since I was child
Don't go out
Don't play
You are a girl
& I grow up & the forbidden list grow with me
Today, I fear even from sleeping
The dreaming died inside me
------

My life like a wish on a shelf
My life like traveling clouds
Watching the life from a long distance
Raining my tears & disappear
My life is just like a wish on a shelf
