I came from there
There I belong
Where babies can fly
And prayers have wings
Where poppies dance
And angels do sing
I came from there
Where rainbow souls
With stardust tails
Float in the sky
Despite the curfews
Dazzling, their joy
I came from there
Where skies rain bombs
As air stops breathing
Families hold hands
Bathing in love
Tranquil serene
I came from there
Where furious evil
Rages with hate
Humanity’s saviours
Shining in beauty
Steadfast remain
I came from there
While others watch
Stunned and bemused
My people ascend
Peeking through veils
Where time no more
I came from there
Where truths are born
Infinity meets naught
Miracles are norm
Where loss is gain
And less is more
I came from there
Where prophets still praying
Where children play
On sacred mountains
Splashing their feet
In holy springs
I came from there
Where eyes can hear you
Where tears have smiles
And grins do weep
Where stones have feelings
And martyrs live, forevermore
I came from there
There I belong
Where life is death
And death means life
Where God dwells
Thus sings my soul
