Mother's Sorrow
They get mad when their children are taken
But we are to remain calm
They are yelling and red when their children get bullied
But mine are to suffer while I watch in silence
They yell when their daughter's Bible is confiscated
But mine cannot reat her Qu'ran in peace
Their children can wear whatever they want
But my daughter gets named for her sari
We are not the ones who blew down those towers
Did you not see him be killed?
So do not punish my child for her religion
Tons of other religions have sinned
Did no one hear about all those shootings
In which young and old were massacred
Did no one see the religion of Hitler
Hear the names upon his words
Now wait in front of their school
With a heaviness in my soul
Please return our stolen daughters
And leave my religion alone.
