Unfinished Goal: Poetry by Zeynab Amini Parsa

Poetry by Zeynab Amini Parsa

I have sailed across the perilous Pacific Ocean, just to become safe and free like everyone else. There is grief in my and there is no relief. I've spent my entire life migrating like a bird. Mirgrating runs through my veins.

I was born with immigration. I've grown up with immigration. And I still live with immigration.

I still don't believe my feet have touched the ground, sometimes I believe they are still on the boat. It's hard that some people don't accept you. If only they knew what I know, they could feel the pain that I have been through.

I am brave, patient, and true.

I will find that happiness in me one day, someday, somehow.
