Where is the escape from fate?

No room for denial

By Kisama Riyo Published about a year ago 2 min read

And they ask me where do you flee from fate?

Why did you wander and look away from us?

Beware, there is danger?

We are here watching you until noon.

If only they knew where the harm lies

And what sadness surrounds me?

And that I have not looked at you for long

Except a bright light shining like scattered ghosts?

In the darkness of the night Ali was sentenced to stay up late

If only he knew the extent of the harm and its blemish?

So listen to me, O souls of the revolution

Bite your hands with patience

For worries fall

When their path turns toward magic?

And that sorrows do not spit

From themselves a drop of rain?

Do not disappear from me

In my night the moonlight

For the soul traveled with me

And changed the course of fate

When the doors were closed in my face

I felt sleepless, so the sea spoke

And said: Ah, what is this boredom?

Was it a prison or a slaughter?

My suffering intensified

When sadness touched life

So pain curbed my sadness

And my day bled at moonrise

There I drew the borders

So their anger intensified and the treachery of mankind increased

So where is the escape, O son of Adam?

And where is the lesson?

He said: There on the top of the hill

Ask and the news will come to you?

My bleeding is clear and quick to release

My blood is engraved on stone

Shadows that bind my fate

And do not leave me to my own devices

I write... I write rhymes of poetry

If they felt me, the bird would sing

And the darkness of the grave would dissipate

And the poet would play the melodies of my love

And they would flow like a river

For it is a story, so tell us, O destiny

And take our share of the world of dawn

For dawn called us before dawn

And said: There is no room for denial

For you are one of the sins of fate

So we were astonished and said: Who said we are the sins of fate

For we are humans and melodies of a tune that has lost its strings?

And its cells were saturated when the shadows of awakening touched them

So is this the wisdom of the Lord of fate?
