I hate fireworks

By Salam Kareem I hate fireworks I used to enjoy it But, not anymore I still think it’s fun But, still cannot enjoy it   I was just a little girl But since that war Fireworks makes me sad It brings tears to my eyes I feel my heart squeezed Somewhere in the world Kids take shelter   Was never in a war zone Have never heard a bomb But I was old enough to feel I was old enough to see Somewhere in the world Kids take shelter   Yes it was on screen Miles and miles a way But it was real Gaza under fire Oh, God not again For most of the world It was just foreign names Places where bombs explodes Alshujaeya, Beit Hanoun, Khan Yunis, Rafah and many many more But I have different stories Glorious...  glorious stories People with dreams and hopes Families trying to survive In a place like no other Standing alone… In the face of oppression In the face of death   Are you still there? I can see you bleeding Is it a sign of death or a sign of life? I’m afraid you’re not the only You’re one of many Here and there around the world Where homes and dreams are destroyed Where a loud sound means death Duck down and take shelter. Sweet little kids   My kids run to windows Looking for fireworks I feel my heart squeezed Somewhere in the world Kids take shelter Duck down and take shelter.
