Never know when they'll have a good day
At any moment the symptoms might show
Making it hard for them to plan things
And even have a regular schedule
They are the most strongest people
Who have Known defeat
Known struggle
known suffering
Known loss
And they still found there way out of the depth
They are strong and determined
Brilliant and beautiful
They're not defined by diagnosis
Because they are warriors
When a crisis brings them down
They nurse there wounds
Dust off their knees
And keep on fighting
Because they are fighters
They have been handed a fight
They didn't ask for
They fight for their lives everyday
They are fighters
They find a way to overcome most obstacles
They always help and encourage others
Even at their lowest
They are strong
With an agony of mind i say
We should all be supporting our fighters
Strengthening our survivors
Honouring the taken and
Standing by our warriors
They embody the true definition of courage,
Resilience
And strength
THEY ARE WARRIORS
From the early stage of their lives
Treated as if they don't have rights
Roaming about on the streets even at night
Longing for love and care
Not even from their parents that sent them
Crying and screaming to them
Not wanting to leave
Going to where they are known by none
All in the name of seeking knowledge
From some half baked scholars
Who send them begging for food
Searching for sustenance and not fortune
Used and abused
Neglected and abandoned
Deprived from living a normal life
They too are children
Born not to be sent away
Born not to be ditched
Without a place to sleep
Nor food to eat
Not even clothes to wear
They too deserve love
They have rights
To live happily with their parents
They have rights
To good education
Love and care
Something they crave for
From their parents and the society
Not to be defamed and shamed
We all should wake up
Let's join our hands
Together we can change their lives
With an aching heart
And a loud voice I ask
Are the Almajiris our biggest challenge or deepest regret?
And are they invisible or just choose to be ignored?
