Off From Our Lands! Poem by Siddartha Montik
Off From Our Lands!
know not why we ran away from home lands,
know not how to fit in the new lands!
in the depths of our hearts still there must be a beat,
that no one cares to understand or to repeat it!
it is only we feel the pain of it all,
yet.. it is all hard to find some one to make it full-fill!
we are lost nomads from home lands off a cause for sure,
but surely were not on our way to conquer!
still holding on those lost strands of that culture,
we sure have so much to offer in all this mixture!
give us a little space too here, of a life,
for we never really make someone unsafe!
seems like in the very nature of our ancestral culture,
just to make sure that every life gets it's nurture!
(in respect to Roma and their history)
i can feel the message of this poem...i can fully realte since our history complement with it
You convey the complex emotions of moving to a foreign land beautifully Alf
I love the way you used words to tell the emotions of moving it was very good!
People ran away froom their homelands for many different reasons. A well penned poem.
Loved the subdued plea: very poignant, all lines charged with deep emotion. Wish I could open up like that and let emotions pour out when I write a poem, but I'm more like a fortress, content with merely hurling little snippets of cerebral musings over the battlements.
Nature! ! Unsafe. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
