Don Subba Poems

Does she not see the tears in my eyes?
The pain in my face,
The hurt in my cries.
Does she not notice my head held down?
...

Screaming in the darkness,
I know that you hear me.
Trying to hold my voice inside,
When you could just set me free.
...

Fire, a fire burns in my mind.
Don't leave, my life, don't leave.
Brightness of eyes, my star of night,
don't take your light.
...

My eyes are shut
My lips are sealed
Your arrogance is a kill
My eyes are shut
...

Do you believe other's views?
Do you believe what's on the news?
Do you believe what you were taught in school?
Do you believe the words of a fool?
...

I am Don, the quiet storm,
The hand that steadies, the voice that warms
With hidden ice.
I do not shout,
...

A rose by any other name
Would still as red as the blood in our veins
A pawn in any other game
Still may be sacrificed, all in vain
...

You kill People so real
With your steel
You think you are a deal
But you are a fool
...

Nothing interests me in this world,
neither life nor betrayal.
Nothing pleases me nor my soul,
neither rise nor fall.
...

The lies that I've told
Good deeds not done
The mercies not shone
Under a dead sun
...
