I Am Not Alone

I am not alone

In giving away all my savings –

despite a homeless myself –

To a friend buying a house;

I am not alone

In receiving an award

From a foreign government

For the excellent service

To my motherland.

I am not alone

In being ignored

By those who envy me

And my passion to Life,

To Change

And Exchange.

Perhaps

I am the only one

Who

at the age of 45

Dreams of

Becoming a funny poet

with a beard and moustache

At the age of 50!

Am I not alone?
