We Have Left Home

We have left home! To countries where our fundamental human rights are respected and valued. We have left home! Because our leaders got money for politics, But can't fund our colleges and universities. We have left home! Our hospitals got no potent medicines, And our people are dying every day like flies. We have left home! Because religious intolerance and tribalism has brought segregation and conflict. We have left home! Corruption, marginalization, nepotism and favoritism have led to underdevelopment in our country. We have left home! Unemployment, hunger, and poverty kills us faster than any disease one can imagine. I'm not writing all these because I'm a coward, But I'm thinking of the lives we have lost so far, Therefore, we don't really wish to be home soon, Until there is a revolution or referendum, Which will foster a lasting peace, unity, progress.
