Open Your Eyes
by Umer Ahmed
USA
 

Who knew such evil would come,
I always thought right would conquer wrong,
Thinking, why hasn't my horror ended,
I couldn't understand, they say I was too young.

I should have known better,
But to the world they lied,
They said I would get my home back,
Yet I know there still are tears to be cried.

Seems like no one wants to listen,
How long can the truth hide,
I wish the world could know,
My people are going through a genocide.

The world would cry,
If they could see,
My land being destroyed,
My soul being taken away from me.

All I wanted was to be free,
Is it so hard to ask,
Why they do this to me,
When freedom is my only task.

Can you help me,
Please don't listen to the lies,
The truth is so near,
Just open you eyes.
