the children of the heroes

watching the plane leaving,

and starts to learn counting;

through the calendar skimming.

days and night of uncertain waiting.

.

learned to understand physics;

by a matter of miles and timezone,

read through geography,

and day to day agony.

.

learned world history,

by holding dollars and foreign monetary,

the numbers add up,

to years of being lonely.

.

started to understand love,

through words spoken,

and all the words written,

carried by stamps….fading.

.

patience of waiting,

started to taste blank,

days, months and years,

gone to fast, seems like they are forgetting.

.

the children of the heroes

pay the price,

for the economy of tragedy

brought by poor economic policies.

.

wrote by the educated,

who cant decipher life from death.

as they call them heroes,

they children call them…parents.
