We Don’t Want You to be Real

Joy Al-Sofi - USA

for the people of Gaza, January 10, 2009

 

We don’t know you

In your prison

Waiting hidden

Behind closed doors
 

We can’t feel you

Moving upward

Seeking sunlight

Like blades of grass
 

We can’t hear you

In your torment

Crying out

Like landless birds

 
We can’t see you

In your beauty

Rising in the darkness

Like the tide.
