Born Identity

Standing at the cross roads
Of febrile atmosphere
I cursed at your birth
Yet, calmly I pondered on our relationship

I realised how genuine our company is!
For we share a symbiotic companionship
You gave an identity to me
A unique feature that connects
Me with my roots

I’m a form of your shadow
You have given this
Individuality to understand my source
To influence the world
Through my conduct
And to respect similar exquisiteness
Of other origins

Oh my identity!
You were born
To make us respect and share
Our culture
To synergistically flourish in this world
In the multi-ethnicity
Of our religions

Oh Religion!
How harsh has humanity been to you!
At your charade
They fight for stability
Of their community
Instead of appreciating your nobility!
