As I Stand on the Cliff/a poem May 17, 2006
this is an old poem my elder sister wrote years ago , today i found the copy she made for me n' thought i could aswell share it with you guys !i asked her if she dosent mind me posting it , she said "soak it n' drink its water" , so i was like "k ! whateva~!"

it's about palastine .hope ya like it :)

----(As I stand on the Cliff)-----
As i stand on the cliff
i bitterly sniff
I gaze at the distance
tears gush without resistance
i can see her there
howling "YOU DARE!"
"you watch children dieing !
you watch women crying!
and then you say lieing ..
you never forgot the birds that flew ,
nor the winds that blew,
but deep within you ,
You surely knew !
You will forget me and search for somewhere new ."

hurted , shocked , i knelt on the ground .
thoughts in my head going round and round ..
suddenly ! as if awakening from a bad dream ,
i shouted with a voice that stroke like a beam !
"Oh NEVER ! i wont forget you ever !
nor the birds that flew ! nor the winds that blew !
i'll avenge my slaughtered brothers ! my weeping mothers !
i'll avenge them all !big and small !
whatever they may ! do or say !
i know palastine ! you are MINE !
if not for you .. then for jerusalem !
the love of every muslim !
Oh i swear .. the dress of victory ill wear !
not this year , but very near !
i'll make the murderers fed the wrath of anger !
feel the agony of my answer !
they'll face the worst we met ! and have NO time to regret !"

She eyed me in d1sgust ..
"you'r actions are rust . and have no aid,
but a speach of empty words.
stot threatening you cowards ! saying 'palastine is ours!'
you did nothing to release me ! nothing to deserve me !
you'r nation's asleep ..
so continue to weep ..
and watch from far , cowardly as you are .
your children dieing , your women crying .
and sit idle , as you always did .
and the day will come , when farewell to me you'll bid ."

I screamed in pain , that was like a storm of endless rain ..
"Oh please ! take me with ease !"
she didn't bother .. to even answer .
i went back home , thinking alone ..
"in this era , arabs are a disgrace ..
To all thier race ."
Hurted ,ashamed, i bitterly sniff ..
and never did i return to the cliff .

EDIT: i just HAD to mispell "disgust" , the smiley keeps popping up !
