Palestinian Voice

Americans…

 we cried when watching a sad movies.
we cried when we didnt get what we wanted.
we cried when the last season of “Friends” aired.
we cried when we had to much home work.
we cried when we failed a test.
we cried when we lost our championship baseball game.
we cried when the store was out of chunky monkey ice cream.
we cried when lasy the dog saved everyone from the fire.
we cried when our parents punished us from our favorite things.
we cried when we were picked on.
we cried when we had to do chores.
we cried when our parents yelled at us.
