Again and Again
Poem by: Amir AL-Abed
Again and again I`ve walked down this hall.
Trying to stand up tall.
With my nose up, I’m approaching up.
Now I`m just starting not finished and my rage has not diminished.
But it`s always one step forward and two steps back
Kind of like a roller coaster inching up to the top
Just so it can take you straight down for a drop.
They always think I`m being chased by cops because
People see a plane, who do they blame?
They say hey Amir are those your peers and I think they just want to see some tears
I tell them for the love of God that we all believe in.
Can we just treat each other like were all kin?
I wake up plagued with these nightmares and I`m just trying to find out if anyone cares.
But they don`t, I don`t know if it`s just because they won`t.
So what if I pray five times a day?
It`s part of my faith do you got something to say?
Well I do ….I`m not a bomber and I can`t take this any longer.
