Let Us Rest In Peace
Ahmed Sokkar
You know nothing of my agony
Of being the abomination of what I am
A clear picture of pure your misery
A perfect image of my clear despondency
I am nothing but a cancerous corpse
Wandering so alone
I am the failed product of my father's affection.
I am the torment of my mother's adoration
I am the curse that God has created on this forsaken land.
I am living in this dead world, yet alive in a life of demise.
I wish for my death I dream of my demise
I breathe for my decease
When will this end?
When will I lament? When will I rest?
When will I repose?
So alone.....
I have known sadness for long
I chant its name in untold songs
I dream of heart-wrenching lies
I weep in sullen cries. Oh God, when will this end....
