Somewhere in Syria There is a You - poem

Somewhere in Syria There is a You

 

Somewhere in Syria there is a you

Pondering all the existential questions:

What is the meaning of life? Is God real?

Can you get to your job without getting shot?

 

Your notebooks were hidden from the old regime

Your notebooks are now hidden from the new

Is there enough food for today, for tomorrow -

Rough men with guns are beating on your door

 

Somewhere in Syria there is a you

In the next few seconds – what will you do?
