My Childhood
I had forgotten my childhood…
Where it had only brought me sad thoughts,
growing up in a country that I didn’t belong.
I had forgotten my childhood…
Even though the country has a lot of problems,
there are still beautiful landscapes to be admire.
I had forgotten my childhood…
Growing up in a country that couldn’t see the future,
where the children are homeless and famine.
As slowly I remember all these events, I smile,
even though the loneliness is well hidden
I still belong to my childhood…
