Bloody Tears of the Gazans
Voiceless from the continuous screams,
I’ve been voiceless for the past 63 years.
The pain is more unbearable than ever before,
I can’t remember the last time my tears were clear,
Now they are a crimson red, descending rapidly.
Why won’t anyone help us, help our people??
Unanswered these questions will remain
Until my soul departs from OUR promised land
Palestine!
Brushed under the rubble like other Palestinians.
They don’t discriminate age, gender, social status
The only focus is: If you’re Palestinian you die.
Our existence and land being shunned, denied
The name of our land also taken away from us
We have been raped, our dignity gone without a fight
We fight but we’re often seen as the villains
That must be taught a lesson by Israelis
Are we not human?
My blood reaching beyond boiling point,
Witnessing day in, day out my family dying
Becoming part of the death rate statistics.
Do they not have a conscience at all?
How do they sleep after killing small children
With overwhelming tears, begging to go back
To safety, into their mother’s arms. Savages.
In my short life, I’ve seen the bloodshed
Imagine seeing your sister raped in front of you
Then after the thrill, bullet, brain, wall, game over
Like paint on canvas but in reality it’s PAIN!
It’s enough to drive a normal person insane.
I’m a Palestinian; I fight to keep my family safe,
Well what’s left of my family, that is.
We are literally dying for a revolution,
There are lives lost on a daily basis.
The soil was once brown, just not anymore
The redness of it is destroying the land.
The same way our people are being destroyed
Weapons blowing limbs metres apart.
Help us before it’s too late to do anything
