Palestine...

Oh Palestine…
Why won't anyone believe you’re mine?
I bleed the colors that our flag paints
Red for the martyrs who aren't there to watch their moms faint
White for the sheets we cover them in
Green for the not so green grass we tried to grow
Black for our hearts when our brothers die and we let them go...
Your roads are open and stretch for miles,
They lead us to your natural beauty
Haifa, Yafa, and Al Quds
Ramallah and Tulkarem.
Meet me on the sunny side,
While I get out from the spot where I hide
To forget the pain that I feel inside.
