shh...they are elders

I was a little child
When that elder ones
Were beating a kind man
I tried to stop them
But my dad said
"Shhh.. they are your elders"

I was of 12
When my elder schoolmates
Were irritating an innocent girl
I told to my teachers
And they said "Shhh..don't tell anyone"
For their school's reputation

I was of 15
When my grandpa did something
I was angry on him
And stepped forward to fight
But my mom stopped me saying,
"Shhh.. respect your elders, go and apolozise"

I was of 17
When a relative touched me
I raised my voice again
And everyone said
"Keep shame in your eyes, they are elders
Whatever they do is alright"

Now, when everyone using me
Killing me hardly from inside
How will I break the silence
When I know my voice will left unheard
Cause they think I'm lying
Since they're elders, and Me?
Am I a child?

One more sleepless night

Yesterday, I decided to sleep early with my family. It’s been a long time we didn’t even talked properly. Finally, the conversation starts with talking about irrfan khan Mom : irrfan khan lied to her mother and became an actor. Dad : how brave he was, he used his talent and interest together. What you’ll do next sufiyana? I felt nice that at least we gonna talk seriously about my future which never goes straight. Me : I don’t have interest in biology, I believe I can do better with computer science.. Dad : so what will you do for it? Mom : you have a lot of calls about admission in universities and colleges and you just come to us and ask whether what should I do next Me : but I don’t know about anything now and wherever I search obviously they call and ask whether I wanna take admission or not. Mom : you can’t do anything, what you know is just using Facebook and that’s all. Me: mmmm…nothing. Mom : I guess, best thing is you should get married and and do whatever...

never ending sky

You and me will hold hands forever Every single moment, second and whatever I love your face when I see your eyes shy We'll create a beautiful new life Full of enjoy and I planned world tour at least five I want to see you always fly I look into your eyes and then suddenly smile You seems like a diamond on my bed when you lie And me, I'm the happiest bird on peak of sky I yelled your name and knocked your door As I seen you from window, you were lying on floor I can't believe, no! You can't die Now, I'm spending my life on endless lies I'm coming to you there, I trapped in never ending sky https://medium.com/born-in-africa-gammo-style-of-english-poetry/born-in-africa-gammo-style-of-english-poetry-writing-5d729201155c

Two faces, Evil and divine

Walking on a empty road I was drowning in my own thoughts By reading a crucial line "Two faces, one evil and other divine" Human have mysterious life Little dramatic having fake smile Sometimes beautiful as angels And sometimes behaves as evil butterflies The so called humans With a heart of steel Sometimes seems as sweet As sugar coated pills While watching a little fish I reached to a beautiful beach Got struck between two sides Saving her or let her cook after she die I touched her spine And felt her last breathes Wondering her beauty I forgotten my all sins I wanted to save her But evil side knocked my brain Hitting the divine me I again leaved her on gravy sand The voices from both sides Overcoming my head And after few seconds The little helpless beauty was dead
