Finally its May,
May is the month of
green cards and hope.
of festivals and parties
but most of all
keeping my eye
on my mailbox
to see if the USA
government wants me
to be a citizen of a visitor.
did I pass??
can I start the rest of my life?
every day I come home
my heart dropped
scared to check the mailbox
scared of IT not being there
every day finding hope
I don't care where I live
I just want to be with her!
be happy and loved
protect her, talk to her
and help her, live with her
now at times i feel lost
and losing
confused, and lonely
misunderstood and alienated
not home in this country
not home in that country yet......
my heart is over there
my body is over here
restless...........
