I tremble as I write
My mind fresh with pictures and headlines
Of a country plagued by war
Haunted by famine
Children dropping by the hour
Malnourished and diseased
World’s worst humanitarian crisis
My heart weeps for my Yemen
3 years of bombs and diseases
And the world watching on
As Yemen falls
I weep for my people
Families forced into eating leaves
I lack words for what I see
All I know is we have failed Yemen
Yemen, my Heart.
