I Decided Poem by Zyw Zywa

I Decided



I decided not to lament
over my homeland, the trees
of my youth, I don't want photos

I decided not to be angry
with my father, his rules
and the proud family that is silent

I decided to live yellow
sun in my house, on the walls
my belly and my bare feet

I decided to dance
to be my own story
for my own eyes and ears
