No qualm..no escape
What do you do when you’re soul is burned with dread and despair?
Where do you go when agony and terror are chasing you?
even at the high seas where you sought escape ?
When fear is all you know?
When raw blood is all around you?
When you’re stripped out of every ounce of dignity and grace?
When screaming mothers and dying children rise no qualm no more..?
When the world ignores you and look the other way..?
And brothers of same faith discount you in dismay..
As if you were a stain to escape
Too oblivious, too full of themselves to look back again.
As if we forgot we were segments of the same piece..
If one’s missing, it can’t be one or whole again..
So what’s wrong with us ignoring our brothers in pain?
Dying children, bereaved mothers in every rim and fringe
Destruction and death is all around them, rescue, out of reach !
For all of our brothers, in Syria, Somalia, Iraq, Yemen, Egypt
Lets pray and act instead of ignore or preach..
