I Believe That Time Is Near(A Poem For A Better Hopes)

Smiles have disappeared,
Compassion has gone,
Hatred has appeared,
Hearts have been turned to stone.
I look out of the window,
If this time will every fly away,
If this land will ever experience basic human liberties.
I wonder,
If this land will ever grant its citizens unprecendented equalities.
In my heart I secretly,
I believe that time is near.

I dont know when it will come.
Maybe a hundered year,
Maybe two,or three,
But all I desire for my future generations is to be free,
Freer that I have been.
To learn to live without fear.
I wonder if that time will come.
In my heart I secretly,
I believe that time is near.

Its foolish to imagine change will come during our life.
If it does its a miracle,
If it doesnt,
It doesnt mean we should stop to strive.
For thanks to French revolution,
That led to the secularization,
And that today French can make free speech,
Without any fears,
I wish that my land too had that revolution.
In my heart I secretly,
I believe that time is near.


Will my land,too,be, ever a Secular Democracy?
Or will my children,too,suffer due to Theorocracy?
Will my Ahmedi and Christian friends and neighbours,
Too,have freedom of religion?
Or their life be,
A Taleban's decision?
When will the times change,
In my heart secretly,
I believe that time is near.

Will my Gay son be allowed to marry?
And will my daughter be able to carry,
Carry on with life being a divorcee?
And will my grand-daughter be allowed to marry,
Not Hussein or Ali,
But Ehud or Jerry?
If yes,then when will the time come?
In my heart I secretly,
I believe that time is near.
