Lost Hopes
Hungry heads gathered
together unguarded
in a mourning mood
many hungry pieces of hands
lacking a mouthful bread
with bowels of sorrows
opening without life to unwind
race without human testimonies
people that are living dead
in the hurdle of their tired
hopes calling for the dreaded
end to make peace with death
this is the gathering of the lost hopes
