“Dear Palestine“ by Khadeeja Mazhar

A Poem for Palestine by a Muslim Highschool Student

Dear Palestine,

Amidst your trials and plight

I pen these words with hope in sight

Your pain and struggles are felt across the earth

Despite the challenges, this world knows your worth

Though the world may turn a blind eye

Your truth can not be denied

Dear Palestine, your resilience shines in every heart that aligns

With every passing day we stand by your side

While our hearts hurt for you from the inside

We will keep praying and fighting for your freedom at any degree

Because Palestine

You will be free
