In The Stillness Of The Night
I am who I am, I can't deny my nature
My way of laughing, feeling, crying,
Or what I love, It belongs to me
And all of this has been shaped,
By the hands of life and time itself
And people I've met along the way,
A lone candle among nights embers
Painting words under constellations,
As the universe spins and swirls
Mind flows with consciousness,
Opening doors and refreshing ideals
Casting aside thoughts of bitterness,
Grateful to souls that lift my heart
Bringing kindness, peace and solidarity,
An end to conflict in the world
Walls of division falling, tumbling,
Despite the madness and sadness
Two years of murder, pain and loss,
No one can break the spirit
Of a people fighting for freedom!
We need an end to the killing
Remember those who remain steadfast,
Justice must be served without compromise
Oppression only breeds resistance,
Make room for truth and compassion
On roads that give birth to hope,
Concerted consequential efforts
Must override perfunctory tokenism,
Autumn delivering fresh beginnings
Keep calling for a free Palestine.
