Short But Wide Poem by Melvyn Massoumi Goudarzi

Short But Wide



Many eyes cry for my destiny
Many ears listen to my words
Many mouths talk to bring me hopes
Many hearts ache for the oceans of my sorrow
Many dears pray for my lost health
Long time ago
I'd been looking for people
To cry
To listen
To talk
To pray
To do anything for me
To tell me I'm not failed
To tell me I won't die


It was my wish to make the BESTs
But now it's just a chance to breathe no matter how.

I've forgotten how to smile since then
Maybe it's the answer to a friend asking me to smile.

Someday I found there's no more need
To have listening ears
To have crying eyes
To have talking mouths
But I saw it's just disease who should listen who should cry and talk
Another wish
I don't want anyone understanding
I want my disease to understand my tears
I want my disease to remember my forsaken love
I want my disease to go before I do

Will someone come tonight from the sky to answer?
That Why me?

I found a reason to smile
That it's me
It's me who's suffering
Not my dears
So I smile to their tears
That it’s me who’s the reason for tears not them
And I'm happy with their health

No matter how short my life will be
But it matters that how wide it was
