I Am The Man (Syria Poem)

I am the MAN, who lost his smile and found tears, who was full of joy and life but now lives in fear

I am the MAN, who lives life uncertain, if I’ll live to see another day or if GOD draws the curtain

I am the MAN, who feels defeated and small because I lost everything dear, I once could hold

I am the MAN, who is forced to his knees and hears his family for their life, beg and plead

I am the MAN, who has no name or address, who can only live a peaceful life after his death

I am the MAN, who fights hate with love but is still relegated below, by the ones above

I am the MAN, whose family is his focus, you can feel my pain and hear my screams, yet you take no notice

I am the MAN, who lived life when it began but is still not living, that’s the MAN I am
