~*~..I am from..~*~

I am from Somali,

My lovely mother land.

I am from its streets, cities, and every day.

I am from its sunrise through its sundown,

Shining bright and standing high.

I am from the horn of Africa,

And Somali it's her name.

I am from world that is so close yet it is so are away.

I am from a world filled with ignorance, hardship, and pain.

I am from a dark side of life,

a side you'll will never see.

Unless u volunteer to come n walk in ma feet.

I am from silence that doesn't speak,

Never had the chance or the help it needs.

I am from cries n tears,

I am from broken dreams.

I am from hopes that's shattered

I am from a land where its people are scattered

I am from a world that never moves forward,

Stuck in the past where there is nothing but darkness.

I am from,

Somalia.

May Lord bring peace to our way.
