My Sacred Wounds

I had a dream to fly high

Challenging the horizon

Breaking up all the chains

You wound around me

Breaking all the barricades

Of injustice you did to me

But, you cut off my wings

Slashing down my wishes

I want to see all those splendors,

You kept   forbidden from me

But you pierced   my eyes mercilessly

I want to tell the truth which annoyed you

But you dragged out my tongue purposely

I want to write about the freedom you denied me

But you chopped down my fingers with vengeance

You deprived me of everything I loved

Kept me isolated in the castle of selfishness

The last nail on my imaginations you struck

Locking the doors to my dreams, without pity

My scared wounds bleed, invisible

Around me monsters danced bewitchingly

In wild rhythm with clock work precision

I sharpened my ears for the gallops

The bleakly white stallion is on its way

Oh God, behold me till then!
