"Audacious Winter"
Winter has just come back
Knocks the doors again
The walls have fallen
And the doors are opened
No doorsteps or locks
Just a piece of cloth
Covers my humanity.
You're so audacious guest
Enters without permission
Violates all the rules
And even the soft young leaves
Turned to be brown and old.
Your clouds took the light of the day
And added the grey view in the surrounding.
To exacerbate my sadness and depression
They also took the heat of the sun
To make my children burn from the coldness inside a helpless tent.
Your water ran like a huge snake
Sneaking to our shaky tent
submerged my blankets and covers my heels
Where humanity fell under my feet.
