A Child in Gaza

entry picture

Dreaming of leaving

       This rock above my

             Head

 

Dreaming of leaving

The thought you are dead

 

Dreaming of leaving

 

Going back to when I

played here, running up

the path mama mama

kissing your sweet forehead

 

now motionless and

       cold

 

Dreaming of leaving

 

                                 Not wishing to go

But there is no one here, just the buzz

Of the drone overhead

And night falling in my soul

 

Leaving leaving

Dreaming dreaming

of leaving

leaving leaving

leaving…
