From The Rubble

Dem guns are blazing.

Still hot from the war.

My enemy is defeated.

He lies dead on the floor.

My demons have vanished.

Because they have been vanquished.

There's only peace in my mind.

Because it's been so long.

It's hard for me to comprehend that peace I could find.

The one before me is an ally of mine.

& makes me feel like my country is actually worth some time.

If you look underneath it, you'll find diamonds and gold.

You'll slowly see it's story unfold.

You'll see all the beauty you can bring.

If immigration ever lets you in.

Let me show you a part of my country where no one has ever been.

Let me show you the beauties that are a result of the war that it has seen.
