Not a Dream but a Legacy
Location
I have a dream
A dream that could terminate the dangers of a forgotten generation
That one day I can go home to find that my fixation of a land blazing
with life is not dead
I have a dream
That the holy land of souls passed will no longer bleed red with
innocent blood, but bleed with the same passion of those who came before them
I have a dream
That I could lead my people back home, one hopeless refugee at a time
That I could offer peace and harmony instead of bitter resentment
I have a dream
A dream that my life would be dedicated to those people who's endless
fight for their homestead would finally cease
I have a dream
That I, a daughter of two refugees, could find the strength, education, and seer determination
to change the lives of my people who have had their human rights stolen
I have a dream
That the country of Israel and the heart of Palestine could be one
A land where people are not cast behind walls like dissenters
A land that belongs only to those who, with every bone in their body,
couldn't stand to live anywhere else.
I have a dream
That my job could and would not only change my life, but more importantly the life of Palestinians and Israelis, for the better
That whether you are Jewish, Muslim, or Christian, Israel would be a country full of heritage instead of destruction
I have a dream today.
That my legacy will instill hope in a group of people who have nothing else to live on.
