I have a heart!
How often have I not explained we are men
Warm blood runs through our vessels, too
I start our day with a prayer for God
How many times didn't we struggle to put across a word
But you'd turn away
Only language you chose to understand was bullets
And respond in same currency
Fire for fire
We didn't choose you: you chose us
We longed to be owned, to be hugged and cared for!
Why don't you listen!
Fine - I am not suave as you, have my imperfections
Won't you help if it were your brother!
Why did I become this!
Can I not be a part of you! You all!
I also have a heart!
