What would you do...?

What do you see,
When you look at me?
Walking on boiling sand,
Bubbles burst on my hands…

What would you do,
When out of the blue
“Shells” surround you
And bruise every part of you?

Where will you run,
When all of a sudden
You realize you’re all alone
Under the blazing sun…?

Where will you hide,
When your home, your pride,
Everything’s destroyed before your eyes
And you stand all numb, unable to decide…?

Can you comprehend,
What it’s like to live on a land
That is cut off from the world?
Caught in mindless destruction,
Lives lost to inane stand…!

Do you realize
That the 24/7 rocket rain
Brings nothing but
More destruction and pain?

If you do know,
Then what would you do
If in my place,
It was you…?
