Torch Of Freedom Poem by Idris El Asha

Torch Of Freedom



To Buizize, whom if you don't know, burned himself in protest against the
Tunisian government, and started revolutions in the Arab World, which still in the making, even tried in China.

The fire in your heart
set you in fire
set free your people
and shed a light
that lit the squares
of Eltahrirs

thank you
you set us free
of the fear of fire

you died
I came out off death

thank you
to teach me how to die
to be born again
to be born anew

And now i could cry again
but this time of joy
for the freedom you bequeathed

you died for dignity
and left dignity
i hope for us all.
Thank You
