Before Lines Were Drawn
There were no borders hereโ
only rivers that knew our names,
only winds that carried our stories
from mountain to mountain.
We did not cross anything.
We belonged.
The earth was not dividedโ
it was shared in breath,
in footsteps,
in songs rising with the drum.
Then lines were carved
where none had lived before,
and maps spoke louder
than memory.
But the land still remembers.
And so do we.
Not brokenโ
only waiting to be heard again.
Wear the truth.
We were here before the lines.
