These days

These days

A Poem by Azakhiwe Dilinga

I don't scream at the world
and say why don't you change.

I don't kiss evil
and call it good,

faces are broken mirrors
to see the heart.

I don't scream at myself
and say why don't you change.

Every moment I witness
my own weakness

I change.

Well, I try to
and that is all
that truly matters.
