Warworn

Khalid Mukhtar · April 14, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Truth and lies
Shine upon
Water droplets
In the dawn

Tilt the leaf
Drink the dew
Be the human
Side of you

Read the news
Shed a tear
Do whatever
Seems sincere

Write a burn
Tweet a storm
Find a seat by
Where it’s warm

Skies on fire
Far away
Icy latte
Starts your day

Stir your splenda
Empathy
Well into your
Cup of tea

You’re so tired
Of this stuff
Drain your cup now
That’s enough
