This week we went over most of the postcards made via Storybird and Canva. I would like to share one of mine.

I live in this world ruled by race,
But I see tears of my people,
Tears of the Hmong,
The tears of the young crying for their moms.
The discrimination for the sad stories our parents told us about the Vietnam War,
Being the blame why the U.S. lost the War.
Being mistaken everywhere we go,
Being call Chinese,
Being call chink,
It hurts my heart and my soul.
and
Maybe one day the Hmong people will find hope.
Until then our people will face this discrimination.
I wonder,
I wonder,
Why sometimes we die
Why sometimes we cry
Why sometimes we lie
Why this fool i know is a puss why, why
Why we die in a world like this
Like a wise guy said you don’t need to put on make up
All you need to do is to take off that fake stuff
And you need is to wake up
So i wonder why
Why sometimes we die
Why sometimes we cry
Why sometimes we lie
Why we need to drink ourselves to deaf
All you need to do is take a deep breath
And let your pain go away
And start a new day
So i wonder why
Why sometimes we die
Why sometimes we cry
Why sometimes we lie
Why we judge other people before we even know them
Why we make them the bad guy and not the good guy
Because inside every angry person
There is a good person
So i wonder sometimes
Why sometimes we die
Why sometimes we cry
Why sometimes we lie
I just wonder, wonder why sometimes……
