I Am Syrian, I Am A Human Being Too

I cry out loud for your help I beg you to listen to me I ask you to look at me For God's sake, I am dying here Birds of war circle my skies Unleashing havoc on my front yard My house painted red by the blood of my children "Collateral damage, " they said Releasing destruction on my neighborhood Pronouncing me dead on my birthday Birds of prey circle my skies Selecting targets aimlessly A rich menu of human flesh at their disposal With the abundant human carcasses They are picky in their eating habits Plucking out eyes only They leave behind horrible scenes How long can we suffer like this? How much is the price on our heads? How big are our transgressions? How? Why? Who? What? Questions in my mind As i retreat into my deathbed
