No More Pain
Nahida Izzat,
Exiled Palestinian
Poetry For Palestine
Pile your ugly missiles and guns
Froth at the mouth drinking my blood
Feast on your foul bars of gold
Beat your chests, rejoice my death
Until we meet at Court Divine
Your final shock and awe will be
Your “chosen-mess”, your own demise
I am done with you… serene I am gone
Angel in the sky I glide
Ear to ear my gorgeous grin
Free of sadness, fear and pain
Unlike before, now able to play
I sing, I dance, I jump, I fly
With utmost joy and endless fun
♥ ♥ ♥

Nahida Izzat: "I am -a Jerusalem born- Palestinian refugee living in exile for over 40 years. I was forced to leave my homeland, Palestine at the age of seven during the six-day war. I am a mathematician by profession but art is one of my favorite pastimes, I love hand-made things, so I make dolls, cards, and most of my clothes. I also write poetry and participate in dialogues with known and unknown friends as I believe that communication is the first step to understanding, I believe in building bridges, not walls. My shy nature hinders me from public speaking, so I try to compensate for my shortcomings by writing! I started writing some years ago when my friends insisted I should write about my memories, experiences, and my feelings as a Palestinian. So I self-published two books, I Believe in Miracles and Palestine, The True Story. [Biographical information: Growing Gardens for Palestine]
