Analysis of Our Middle East.



Give us the Hope we deserve
it wouldn't cost you a thing,
Turn a frown-Upside down
the happiness that it can bring,
What if you give Hope-
to Our country that's in need,
Protecting the women & children
from all their neighbor's greed,
The bombs that are being dropped
the Innocent lives that's lost,
Families torn-Home's destroyed
they've already paid the cost,
Almost 3,000 dead and counting
in the deadliest war out of 5-,
How can you be so selfish?
for the taking of so many lives,
Our futures will surely change
we can start rebuilding to cope,
Help us put an end to this violence
All that we ask for is Hope.

By Michael A Watkins.

About this poem

I wrote this poem because I don't agree with countries taking advantage of the Innocent, the young, I share their pain and anger.
