Can You Hear My Cry
Cry and cry, till I die
Can you hear, I want you by me
As we used to play
In the long golden grass,
My beautiful one. Long gone
Four years, but still with me
Played till state authorities saw
And stole from us our life,
Raped us for themselves
Persecuted us, we ran, not mad
To escape their tether chains cells
Far away, beyond altitude.
For we are not mad, accused thus,
Past the blue sea yonder,
Through Its whistling wash,
Up away from those cliffs
Moved all mountains,
Fast past the sun's rays.
So they would not find us
But they must have done.
We still crying for one-another
This time too, in the cliffs,
Can you hear my cry my call,
Through the sun sand, ether.
Can you hear me now, still
Ringing in the silent wind,
Through sun, sea and sand
The waves lapping, mingling wet
On the edge of the precipice
The cliffs of blue younder

Wow, awesome poem! Still reading it over and over.
I especially liked the lines
Far away, beyond altitude.
And
Fast past the sun's rays.
