Newspaper Clipping

SELF-PORTRAIT
by Zozan Hawez

Born in a safe family
But a dangerous area,
Iraq,
I heard guns at a young age, so young
They made a decision to
raise us safe
So packed our things
And went far away.

Now, in the city of rain,
I try to forget my past,
But memories never
fade.

This is my life,
It happened for a reason,
I happened for a reason.

Steps...

The more steps you take
The more that you leave behind
So who is following you now?

Nobody Says It Quite Like Jack Does...

All this is flashy rhetoric about loving you.
I never had a selfless thought since I was born.
I am mercenary and self-seeking through and through;
I want God, you, all friends, merely to serve my turn.

Peace, reassurance, pleasure, are the goals I seek,
I cannot crawl one inch outside my proper skin;
I talk of love--a scholar's parrot may talk Greek--
But, self-imprisoned, always end where I begin.

-C.S. Lewis
