Alien

Belal Sohel

I am an alien

Who has drifted upon the shores?

I’m not sure what’s in store

The teeming masses the ocean of humanity

That swirls around me

No buffering my fragile boat

Where is my anchor?

Where is my anchor?

I have left so much behind

And I am seeking that much more

— Belal Sohel
