free palestine
i want to talk about a truth that isn't heard
... ideas that are absurd
... a battle that isn't equal
... the media which is deceitful
... a conflict of political agenda, not religion
... foreign policy with precision
... the causes of this struggle
... the forced nature of this trouble
... a youth that doesn't play childhood
... a father prevented from providing food
... a family trapped in the confines of a home
... the gunpoint facing the dome
... a soldier spitting on a grown man's pride
... a community with no place to hide
... an incessant attack on people, not a cycle of violence
... international opinion smothered in the silence
... a mother who holds back a cry
... children leaving the house to die
... a sun that never shines
i want to talk about Palestine
