This is a Moroccan beat which I personally love. Please listen while reading, I really would appreciate it, thank you 😊

Cast upon him a burden
a wicked curse
born under the wrong agenda
what could be worse?
Life's value lost and hollow
burned out
can anybody hear you?
There's no way out!
Trapped in a hell from which
there is no escape
for being born on the wrong
side of the moon
life is cruel, look at his face
His beauty untouched
eyes having seen too much
out of tune out of touch…
I can't even begin to imagine
the human suffering where you are
no laughter only sorrow
no hugs or good night kisses
no hope for tomorrow…
Does anybody know what happened
to the flowers where you are—
or the will to live, not just survive
live, die, eat, sex and cry
He'll be leaving soon
wearing his pride on his chest
singing his favorite tune
dressed in his Sunday best!
Yes, he'll be humming his favorite song
long after he's gone
knowing his dream is now reality,
left behind a life of psychosis banality...

Your words coupled with the music were heartwrenching. I felt the boy's suffering and tears came. This was emotionally powerful. I felt it down to my marrow.

That’s what I said to myself how wretched it must be to live over there 😔 thanks for the read and comments I appreciate you
John when I see how long you’ve been here and how little people comment that breaks my heart.
You are a sweet kind and caring person who deserves attention in your writing .
I will be visiting you have a wonderful evening :)
Your friiend and sister in ink

Jackie, reading you has been the most scintillating literary experience I have had in a long while. Love your poetry and choice of musical accompaniment. Look forward to getting to know you through your writing.
John :) :)
John :) :)
I too look forward to getting to know you through The magic of poetry my friend 🤗
And WOW 🤩 What an amazingly beautiful thing to tell me Holy moly ! I so appreciate you you definitely made my night🥳
I constantly doubt my ability to be a good poet
I do wanna publish a book one day I’m just not so sure it will be read :) I think I’m getting there though
Thanks you
Jackie your new sister in ink 😊

Reggie ,
Wow I am happy to read I moved something inside you . I too, once I heard this song feel in love with the agony. I just had to write something to let myself feel at least somewhat, of an idea of this life .
It is tragic and sad. I also need you to know that what you have said here as a whole has touched me beyond . Thank you dear brother I love you
Jackie xoxo 🤗❤️😘

It says so much about you as a person and as a poetess that you have as scope of vision which identifies and conveys such profound truths. This is absolutely beautiful.
