Darkness | Mohammad Forouzani (Martin Foroz)

They trumped me up
Roiling me by their interrogation
for rebellion against their god
I was imprisoned for nothing but
the vastitude of human ignorance
Then, silenced & repentant
for what I didn’t know why
No one was a sinner but apparently I
who spoke for real freedom of thought
I was happy not being like them
in a dark room, not knowing time then
Not listening to them while obedient
The life itself was too brilliant
It was a horrible time for me
in the darkness, unable to see
I’ll never forget what they did to me
though I am now seemingly free
