Black Winter She hid behind veil The coldness Her companion The umbrella her armor I died Years before Her last kiss In heaven I adore I shed tears At my widows pain In paradise I go insanely insane Black widows Weep in the dark Dead spies No one finds, eaten by sharks Shifting winds Freezing rains Snow drops reliving The survivor’s pain As she walks down her rue of memories Umbrella shielding her tormented face Embracing the coldness, embracing lost fate Teardrops wipe the history from her case We never existed us two When I died under enemy plans My lover had to flee her fathers land No one is safe at Palestinian hands Hatred buried so deep Hamas bloody knifes never sleep Child and foe, kill them for the goal My lover is dead, Arabic beauties lost soul Israel is the Promised Land

Powerful She hid behind veil The coldness Her companion The umbrella her armor" "Shifting winds Freezing rains Snow drops reliving The survivor’s pain" Descriptions that just seep into the soul and devastation of the person. Well said.
