With knapsacks filled with memory's weight,
They flee the land where shadows wait.
No trumpet sounds, no marching band,
Just weary souls on foreign sand.
Theirs is a journey etched in tears,
Of shattered homes and conquered fears.
A mother's touch, a child's soft sigh,
A silent plea beneath a starlit sky.
Theirs is a language, fractured, torn,
Of whispered prayers and battles worn.
They clutch the dreams they hold so dear,
A tattered map to futures unclear.
But in their eyes, a flicker burns,
Of hope that yet for solace yearns.
A strength that rises from the dust,
To build a new life, filled with trust.
For even lost, they're not undone,
These refugees, beneath the sun.
With open arms, let compassion greet,
And help them find their rightful seat
