At night in the desert
You will see the deception
See the eyes that wrote
All the scary conceptions

At day in the desert
You will find an intellect
You might think it's a defect
But it’s something to reflect

You see us and wonder
If our pain is apparent
We’ll tell you stories
How dunes carried our glories
Made us believe
Forget and promise

If you ask us
We will tell you
Our fights and wars
Our laughs and promises

We will also tell you
What we are thankful for
The night’s secrets
The day’s clarity
The mind’s forgetfulness

Thank God we forget

We forgot how our people
Our land
Our deserts
Tricked us into falling
Into loving it

Ask us what we love the most
The answer’s always one
I hope you enjoy reading it Heart

Interesting poem Soona.  The imagery focused and the pace gentle.  The beguiling of the desert reminded me of the djinn.  Lovely poem! :heart:
