Push Me Not Back

Rating: 5.0


I want to live
With my family,
On this very earth,
Push me not back.

Please, please,
Push me not back,
I want a place
On this earth,
To settle down.

Let me clear
I am not a security
Challenge to anyone.
Please treat me
As a fellow human.

I do admit,
You have every right
To fight terror,
But look at me,
I am simple and
Innocent and I am
No way related to
Any fundamentalism.

I have lost everything
For nothing,
For no fault of my own.
Believe me, and put me
In no trouble in the name of
Ethnic cleansing.
