Scrubbing Dust

Scrubbing Dust

Reem Khamis, Latin Patriarchal School 

one day
you will find the way
 

you will find yourself standing

with no blame

one day
you will be there

with no shame

there, where everything is possible
there you will see the stars,

and will be asking 

who'll be the last one to remain
 

when will you stop wondering
and finally accept the truth ?!

children will fly over there
just glowing, with no care

one day, this child will be there..

standing in front of this great wall
with a big question mark within his soul

one day, life will be clear enough  for him
to get his rights
and to be a hero and crush this wall
to be a hero at cruelity's funeral..

but this question mark is standing right there, 

deep within me,

wondering when he will be there, 

scrubbing the dust off of life's bitterness
