\nBy Haikal Mansor<\/p>\n
\nSometimes a heart turns.
\nSomewhere a child mourns,
\nIn the heartland of Buddhism creed,
\nOf politicians\u2019 greed
\nAnd of extremists decreed.
\nShe is not a dream nor a secret,
\nShe is but a harrowing voice of unjust arr\u00eat,
\nComing from the terret,
\nForced to wear around her neck
\nTo maintain bullying in check.<\/p>\n
\nAnd hides her sorrow in the shadow of her lost pedigrees.
\nEmbossed her in the long list of displaced Rohingya refugees.
\nShe sojourns,
\nWhere a lamp burns
\nAnd a heart turns
\nAgainst Buddhism compassion,
\nRohingya existential confession
\nAnd fruitful discussion,<\/p>\n
\nShe thinks of the loneliness
\nAnd of the unloveliness.
\nShe mourns,
\nWhere a lamp burns
\nAnd a heart turns.<\/p>\n
\nAnd of triumph of the democratic champs,
\nWhich gives her soul cramps.
\nShe lives,
\nThrough the flashback of torture and persecution that constantly relives
\nWhere a lamp burns
\nAnd a heart turns.<\/p>\n
\nAs flies by.
\nFrom the thunder and the storm,
\nAs the cloud that takes the form.
\nFrom the dripping water through the holes of her shed,
\nAs the merciless rain bashed.<\/p>\n
\nRather extremism in various forms.
\nHer wreckage life \u2013 a product of political silence,
\nOf violence,
\nOf ignorance and intolerance.
\nAs the results of judicial void,
\nBuddhism compassion devoid
\nAnd widespread religious paranoid.<\/p>\n
\nAnd thoughts of false-hearts,
\nShe arises in the shadow of her own destiny
\nWith the grain of mutiny,
\nAgainst the incompassion,
\nThe oppression
\nAnd the depression
\nOf the turned-hearts
\nAnd the stone-hearts.<\/p>\n
\nWith the honey-voiced tone which beckons her stands.
\nFor the hearts turning against different race,
\nWith gleams like a dream in her face.
\nLike the grace
\nAnd the vision that her parents once embraced
\nFor centuries in Arakan where her linkage is traced.<\/p>\n
