At This Point

As a proud Palestinian, I protest for peaceful resolve of the conflicts inherited by my homeland, with nothing mightier than the pen. Until I meet this goal, I swim alone. Readers may find the same metaphor woven into most of my work.





At this point in time, I've searched every creek, and I could not find, any trace of my crime, dived down every stream, and you know peace of mind is all I want, but...

 

  All I need now is your love, at this point, and forgiveness from above, at this point, a different book to set me free, is all that matters to me, all I need now is your love, at this point, in my life

 

 I want to be the first, among the sea, and stars, but you met me at my worst, in a prison with no bars, I want the hero with the key, to take me home, but enough of what I want...

 

  All I need now is your love, at this point, and forgiveness from above, at this point, a different book to set me free, is all that matters to me, all I need now is your love, at this point, in my life
