The Feeling
Feeling afraid, when it shakes,
On a hot day, holding the ground
hearing everybody screaming and running
and making the clouds of dust.
Where to go, where to live?
falling houses and walls.
Oh! this Earthquake
I wonder why this day comes?
every night, feeling scared to sleep.
When will this stop?
I feel sorry for people with nothing
But I think I am lucky
to live another day!
