I still Can’t Figure Out How I Feel Today: By Abdale Farah Sigad
This is small poem and it is my conclusion of many things that I have been pursuing within Awdal community for the last nine years. In life, experience teaches you lot of things and I finally learned, it is bad idea to try to correct the mistakes that other people are making.And I also learned people are not angels and they can behave in an unpredictable way and that is the nature of human species. Even those closer to you can side with your foes when it suites them . However I sitll don't know how I ended up the way I feel today
Here is my thought
The reality of politics hit me in the heart
I leant the fact, there are no friends in politics
A trouble of tribalism tease me through my family
I frozen like an Ice, when I found out the facts
But I still can’t figure out how I feel today
I fear the pain I feel today, will follow me for ever
I found out the friends I feed yesterday, are fighting with me today
And the future I found with my friends, turns out to be fake
I am dishearten, and disappointment is my definition of the day
I am bruised and broken and nothing can bring me back
But I still can’t figure out how I feel today
I might have been doing silly mistakes lately
But my DNA does not deny the reality
And I am not double faced Dude
I can’t stand deviousness it damages my devotion
But I Still can’t figure out how I feel today
Betrayers are trying to justify their devious deeds
But their explanations are making no sense at all
Solidarity is sinking like a bad sailor in a boat
A terrible feelings terrify the community
But I still can’t figure out how I feel today
Finally tribalism takes you nowhere
So never trust the thieves who shed the Tol’ayeey tears
Teach your self to mind your own business
And tell your self to take easy no matter what
Peace is my advice today and I care nothing else
And though I still can’t figure out how I feel today
I know for sure things will never be the same again
Democracy is better than repression
