31 bulan 8, lima puluh tujuh

in another part of the world,
atom bombs are dropped endlessly,
to destroy a nation.

in another part of the world,
little children are dying from countless disease,
as a result of food deprivation.
they have to work at a very young age just to get something to eat.

in another part of the world,
somebody sleeps in fear,
scared of the heartless soldiers with gigantic rifles.

and here i am in a country,
where i could at least have a peaceful place to sleep, eat and live life.

we may not be the richest or the most well-known country in the globe,
but i'm grateful to be where i am today.

happy independence day.
let's appreciate the freedom that we've gained in our country.
achieved by the late warriors of Malaysia.
