poetry

My desolate shore, Leila Samarrai

Why are there no borders
Between lies and life
Before the virginal knees

I was born in the dalliance of light and shades of the waterfall
And waited to bite the fruits
Through one world or a century

And they were bitter inside

I return to the scent of home
The island which swims through night and water
