To Truly Believe
by
Timothy T. Worster

Death, War, Destruction
Protectors of Palestine
The Holyist of wars

Tanks, soldiers take hold
The Struggle, Life, God save me
Peace is never near

Passion, firm Belief
I'll
die for what I believe!
Though all is in vain

Suffering, Brothers killed
Families torn, loved ones have died
How do we survive

The pain, oh the pain
The Middle East pays the price
Protect me, oh Lord

In the end is lost
We are the people who fight
The soil is soaked RED.

Contributor's Notes...

I am an American-born Persian, and a Sunni Muslim.  I pray that all the death and violence will halt, and
my people can achieve peace.  I hope that everyone who reads this will be reassured that we are all people
with hopes, families, dreams, and feelings.  
Salaam, Tim.
