deaths and murders
are distant dreams
until it happens
to the ones
we live
with
we are either
victims or culprits
even the noblest among
us are not spared
this is a cycle
that moves in circles
yesterday I lost someone dear
tonight I die
tomorrow you kill
this is a cycle
that moves in circles
fire that burns in us
will burn us
water that floats in us
will drown us
earth that feeds us
will eat us
air that fills us
will kill us
space that holds us
will suffocate us
this is a cycle
that moves in circles…
