The Holy Land

The land is soaked in blood and tears the hate is very old Like all the ancient stories in the Holy Bible told Each vows to kill the other asks their God to make it so Their vengeance masked as prayers consume the Holy Land of woe No leaders can convince them their hate like a disease There is no cure for this old plague which blows with every breeze

Very well written, dear Samia. A powerful reflection on how ancient hate and faith-fueled vengeance perpetuate endless sorrow in a land longing for peace.
