What does it mean to be / a refugee / To always feel /something missing.
Maybe I would have more / than blurred memories of my land.
I ask ChatGPT / because it always has an answer: / When will Palestine be free?
I’m 18 and I had a dream / that houses bloomed with love not blood.
Despite my terrifying experiences in Gaza under war, my responsibility to love and care for others keeps me centered.
