DESTINATION
By Aria Iqbaal
The place I am at, it’s up upon the hill
Far from the place I will ever reach
We are under control
For no crime
A midday full of rules
The time we choose
Will be our choice
We pray all day
For the rain and snow
Buy a hope
With my tears
All the laws
Bring us here
Every morning is a lifetime
Which never gets a green signal
But as I rest against fears
And look back through these tears
The sound of waves
Alters me: Hey
Look at your journey
Over the sea
The reminder to the few
Who go from here
We will never know
Who dies here.
