Ghazal

“Yes We Can”

Looking like superman, he came to our life with a “Yes we can.”

He seemed calm, courageous, intelligent yelling “Yes we can.”

Lost hopes seem to revive, from every state.

From “I believe”, those tears revived to “Yes we can.”

African American, he was not afraid.

Calmness made race nothing but “Yes we can.”

While others would claim no, we can’t.

With his eyes of hope he would claim “Yes we can.”

The leader of the votes, but had no pride.

Respecting candidates, showing gratitude, “Yes we can.”

Talking with no doubts, nothing seemed impossible.

Whenever he shouted “Yes we can.”

In reality, nothing was left but tragedy.

Too much promise, since his “Yes we can.”

Was it necessary to give false hope?

Losing hope and leaving posters of “Yes we can.”

“Yes we can”, “yes we can” were the days we say.

Thought about ripping off stickers of “Yes we can.”

Citizens lost, do you feel happy?

It’s not too late, show us the meaning of “Yes we can.”
