Haiti,

I believe in you, I have a trust that one day you will be better than ever.
I have the faith that one day like today you will stand back the way you were.
I will not giving up on you, even if it's hard.
I will always be by your side.
even if it's not today I start, but it will be one day like today till the end.

I back and forth my pages but I never saw a page nor a chapter saying life will be so easy.
It's been so long that you mistreated as a country.
heart beating so fast that wanted to get out from my chest.
crying, tired, not sleepy
so thinking about you.

One God, one nation, one country, same blood.
Black eye, black mind, black soul, same language.
Destroying, mistreating, crying, dying, misunderstanding, losing.
We become the last one, we become the become the crappy country.
not one day, I wanted this to happen.
nothing else but misunderstood bring us here
hating, killing, jealousy still stand here between us


look up at the sky and asking why,
but never realize what bring us through where we are now.

I hopefully think tomorrow will be so different.
I feel it and so see it as well.
bad day, bad time, bad dream all day long.
joking, cursing is our favorite verse.
hating, killing, kidnapping is all we do as work.

Love, joy, peace, courage, kindness, happiness is what we need.
having them can set us free
why cant we just get it together?

I can never be too sensible than God, our father.
he gives, he takes away.all i can say is:
May God forgives us for what we've done.
May he have mercy on us.
May we stay in peace.
May we have peace back on our heart <<love>>
