Refugee
'Refugee' by
We cross deserts,
we walk the line,
cross oceans
to find our way
from where we were
crushed and conquered,
tormented and tortured,
degraded and despised.
We are not a multitude,
merely a few
who stand before you
scarred with wounds
that will not heal.
Let us make a joyful noise
and lift our voices
to the heavens
that you may hear us
and see the Archangel
lift us in his hand
and give us to you.
