Literary Orphans

When the world is dying alone……… by Narjes Azimi

Gonna die, we all…..

So,

In a caring bed near each other, let’s die,

Let’s die…..

In such a dark romance in black Sabbath,

During the biggest war ever,

Don’t please….

Begging you innocent souls “Don’t stop the war,”

If waiting for them the most luxurious hospitals in the world,

For those children who are trampled in the war,

Their greatest sin was their virgin spirits,

Very far from the apple of the knowledge yet,

Or maybe they were father of man, doomed to die…..

You do not even deserve to keep their chops,

Just for the record, I am saying….

Start to finish your biggest art ever, and let’s all die

Without caring about each other,

Let’s die,

Flip the coin, Snap your finger,

Well done!

You have done it much better now.

The best human being ever and the only one left in the world now.

All the white bed sheets in the infirmary now, waiting for your filthy hands,

To clean all the blood.

Don’t worry! There will be no sign of your artistic slaughter,

Except your birthmark which make Cane so proud of!

The lord will not find it out too.

The Lucifer’s blood inside you

Is just erupting outside,

Suffocating you in a genuine miserable limbo,

Congratulations!

To the world without innocent human,

Finally happened.

The desert Rose is crying,

Standing alone, watching the shiny spiritual souls,

Baptizing the tortured soul of the world by their tears.
