Had I known
at my birth
or been asked
by God...
I would have refused
being born human.
For my life here
is a grave yard
of a once proud nation.
Where the way of life
is humans burying
by hand.
Such injustice...
Such cruelties....
Titled killers
Law makers
The honor of society
So called martyrs
or freedom fighters.
