“It is when darkness prevails that I sit by the window to look past all those electricity-free houses, smell the sweet scent of a Gazan night, feel the fresh air going straight to my heart, and think of you, of me, of Palestine, of the crack, of the blank wall, of you, of Mama, of you, of my history, of you, of God, of Palestine — of our incomplete story.” ― Refaat Alareer, Gaza Writes Back Barely any news coming in from Gaza now. Is this how Israel plans to hide the horror its sowing? We’re thinking of you Palestine. Of you and of your walls, broken. Of you and your children, shattered. Of you and your men and women, crippled. Of you and you and your schools and hospitals, destroyed. Of you and your trees, kneeling over in grief. Of you and your streets, flowing with blood. Of you and your skies, lit up by fire. Of you and your sorrows, multiplying every day. Your screams were deafening before but now it’s your silence which is terrifying. You are dark today but may you shine once more. Soon. Soon. Soon. #FreePalestine #SavePalestine
