Diaspora

I am diaspora You remind me of pain Speaking only silence Dreaming of yesteryears Glued to what you call home you’ve never really known You remind me of pain destiny you say it’s a pity i say how fragile and unworthy forever an alien But do I remind you of life the heartbeat of an outcry the poetry of love the purity of soul the search of self o my breath my being o your creation Because of your pain yes I’m diaspora But do I remind you of life the heartbeat of an outcry the poetry of love the purity of soul the search of self o my breath my being o your creation Because of your pain yes I’m diaspora yes we are diaspora
