Trying hard to live having small to give <br />Is it life? <br /> <br />Don’t know how far to go <br />before I step on a bomb and blow <br />If lucky lose some part <br />If not gone just like that <br />Is it life? <br /> <br />My skin color black <br />My future kind of dark <br />Fight here and war over there <br />Cause? no one is aware <br />It is life? <br /> <br />Born with no fear <br />Learned all to bear <br />Die knowing life is dear <br />With out knowing peace and love <br />Or even coming near..! <br /> <br />july 2005<br /><br />Konjit Berhane<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/is-it-life/
