In the Shadow of Gaza’s Plight

Title: In the Shadow of Gaza’s Plight

In the shadows of confusion, a heart whispers,
An abrupt departure, a resignation tendered,
A Palestinian-American, her spirit weary,
As Israel’s siege on Gaza grows dreary.

A deep longing for justice spills from her core,
Compelled to dissent, a voice who can no longer ignore.
She steps away from power, a diplomatic role revoked,
In solidarity with the oppressed, her allegiance evoked.

Within the hushed corridors, anguish lingers,
The toll of lives lost, their hopes crushed like fragile fingers.
Strained ties between nations, a delicate dance,
The desperation of Gazans, denied a fair chance.

But amidst the sorrow, a flicker of hope starts to ignite,
Across borders, unity emerges, casting a radiant light.
A plea for compassion reverberating through every verse,
As the world awakens, empathy its greatest worth.
