somewhere in gaza

Since October 7th, thousands of innocent Palestinian lives have been lost in what is referenced to as a humanitarian crisis by the United Nations. Half of Gaza's population includes children, who are innocent of war crimes, yet are victims of this conflict. As many in Gaza can not share their stories and their voice right now, I wanted to convey my emotions surrounding what I have been seeing on social media and in the news. The poem is not intended to be biased or prejudiced, simply an accurate representation of what millions of Palestinians are experiencing in this very moment.

Creativity to me, is a form of expression. It's my outlet. When I feel like I can't share my emotions, thoughts, and feelings with the world, I turn to pen and paper. Poetry has been my first love in many ways, and I am thankful for that.
