Under the Same Moon
It’s been more than seven years now
since we wanted to fly off the radar
skimming the ground,
cheating fate.
searching for a visa to a dream.
And ever since then, we’ve been eating the grapes
from afar, stepping outside the confines
of the squares crowded with fellow countrymen
keeping an eye on a clock
on the other side of the pond.
