Unarmed

Siddiqa Abid

We stand in a battlefield,
Fighting the weapons in our hands.
We fight the chaos—
While chaos finds a home,
Nurtured, replenished, within us.

We conquer the worlds—
while darkness conquers our home.
Darkness ignites—
With the striking light of itself,
And blinds us.

So we fight the darkness
with more darkness.

We stand in a battlefield
with no weapons in our hands—
for now we fight ourselves.
