Suhail - Jerusalem

As You

I am a child, as you…
I am a child who laughs, and cries, as you,
I am a child who wants to play, as you,
I am a child who wants to study, and go for a walk, as you,

I am a child who wants to enjoy my parents, as you,
I am a child who wants to live in my Homeland, as you…

But I am Palestinian Child, and you are free...

But I am not free.
Why doesn't Israel allow me to be free as you ?
