ORPHANAGE
The land is vast
with wide boulevards,
big blue rivers,
high mountains,
boundless deserts,
countless houses,
men of different colours,
men of same blood,
yet,
there's no place to live,
as if this sky
is not meant for me
to live beneath it
and share the same water
we paid nothing to get,
watch the bright moon
as it lights the world
that my father once lived in,
that my mother just left
to meet our ancestors,
as I wait alone for my last breath
in the vast land
that has no room
for orphans.
