I Will Go Back

The water drinks you
slowly in exile. Your land is thirsty.
I carry my pain behind my heart.

The memory remembers only
the burials. You cannot forget your
image. Time kills the lips.

I am always conscious. Questions
bite. Why you need self-deception? Ultimately
you get your answer in the dust.

Water, a source of life, was available in plenty and is going to be scarce in future. In spite of warnings by experts people are unmindful of the disaster ahead..
