Distraught By My Thought. Poem by Safiyyah Manjra

Moments where I held your hand,
Are now in memories in vain,
Which I cannot understand as it now causes pain.

I can never understand the doings of some people.
Humans are not always understandable.

Grief has its moments of appearing in full presence,
Those moments are when I am alone in my own home.
Where I allow my tears to roam.

I tried to study the thoughts away,
I tried telling myself the papers made a mistake and you are okay.

Who would do such a thing?
I cannot fathom properly enough to find a grounded meaning.
What was the reason behind their doing?

Abducted and tortured,
Who would be so savage as to hurt someone who only cared and nurtured?

I cannot explain.
To whom shall I complain?
My heart is spoilt in utter vain.
