It Burdens My Nation
To be the rescuers you claim
When you turned on the antisemitism flame
Now many voices cry out in vain
Innocent victims in tremendous pain
Endangering my fellow sister and brother across the globe
Preaching a lie that our benefit you scope
Betraying the values and faith we own
It hurts for my people and it burdens my soul
About this poem
My feelings towards the Israeli-state as an observant jewish girl.
