Hiba H Zantout Poems

We want to save Palestine
They say we're Frankenstein

We will kick them out of there
...

Have you ever seen the flower bloom so beautifully and felt the chill of what God can bring to life?
Have you ever seen the rain, from the moment it started falling till the second it evaporated?
Have you ever understood why a mother cries alone at night for just no apparent reason?
Have you ever understood why the young dies even if he/she had no illness?
...

Through out the years , and over the seas
Lovers shed tears , because of fears
That there will be no cheers , and life with the dears
...

They say when someone goes away
You know how much you need them
You'd wish that they had stayed
& life would have been sweeter
...

I miss you
I miss you more than life
I miss your voice
I miss your touch
...

One word to say , there is no other way
You better pray , before you lay

Because we are here , show some fear
...

Lots of people think that the greatest punishment
Is death penalty, which is used for amendment
To deter people from committing crimes
And think about them at least 10 times
...

From home to school, eight hours of study
Back home for more study
The several tests and surprising grades
Place the students in some weird states
...

and silence seems to fill the air
the air growing heavily making it hard to breathe
life has not been so fair
and my heart beats are beginning to cease
...

Look into my eyes; you’ll be able to see a small reflection
Of the world I created in my mind
Look into my heart; you’ll be able to see a few
Of the people that are locked inside
...
