Lekhny composition -28-Aug-2023

Prisoner

Prisoner of war , counting stars waiting for his execution.

The birds chirp in silence, he stares at his daughter in pink photos.

He writes a journal , made some chairs , dig heavy road with a gulp.

Sees a sparrow feeds him a crunches of bread and listen to his heartbeat.

Prisoner of war , doesn't remember what he fought for , waits for his axe time.

Prisoner of war , calm under sunlight and dies with guilt and blood every night.

Sins all he hear war sins all he sees war sins, all he feels war sins , and wants to escape sin.

War , war prisoner of war , begins to realise and return to human.

Prisoner of war , bondage by heavy chains, work burden under heavy rain.

Feels heavy by burning building, doll and blood stains on the walls.

Writes love letter , drowned in fear on the paper , for his wife and talks a lot.

He nibbles on work, wipes tear over the fallen comrades and thinks

About the madness of war and about the inhuman approach on captured hands.

Prisoner of war in shackles , wearing chains as medal for bravery and

Could feel bit by bit broken down by enemy and heavy greeting of torture.

Missed foods , water , and on weak legs , feel the hunger killing him slowly.

Could die soon but he knows the sin and works brought him this in life.

Prisoner of war , waiting for his flames of life to be put down soon.

Beaten mentally physically, and utters no word as his sins got his voice.

The prisoner of war , not able to feel life , burnt by sin , suffocating by sin.

Prisoner of war drop by drop blood flows, drop by drop suffocated by prisoner life.
