letter to bashar

letter to Assad..

i lay in my dark bunker
sleep a luxury i cannot afford
for as the wind blows
my thought goes to when the next one will drop
i have no family
mother died buying bread
till this day i wonder why your men bombed a bakery
i mean what savagery?
Amina, my six year old sister
struck in her sleep by a barrel bomb
we struggled to collect the pieces to bury
and in the hurry
another one fell
i wish i could die and just get away from this hell
cause that was the end of father
and to think you wouldnt go further
my aunt cousins and grandparents all crushed
when the cowards you call fighters destroyed their flat
and so as i lay in this hole
am alone, looking over this hollow wall
one thing i do know Assad
with my family and the thousand others you've taken
you created a force that wont back down until its either you or us..
so with my jeans and no military training
an old kalashnikov and a heart full of grief
i hope to pay my dues.....
