I never thought I'll carry this much of you in mind
Did this hurt is just to broke me pieces or weave to into a wave of ocean
Look at you, better than what I loved in you.
You're doing good and keep going. I'm rooting for your well-being and wedding.
Welcome me there, will ya?

வெள்ளை புறா ஒன்று போனது கையில் வராமலே
முதல் எழுத்து தாய் மொழியில்
தலையெழுத்து யார் மொழியில்
என் வாழ்க்கை வான்வெளியில்

Support for Palestine should be unconditional by the way. Stop looking for the ways they're just like you (ex: gay, trans, neurodivergent, etc) and support them for the sole reason that theyre literally facing a genocide right now. This is what solidarity is.

Don’t let them convince you that you are splitting the fight.
Congo, Sudan, Palestine, the others, they are all the same fight.
Keep fighting, keep pushing, keep demanding. Never let the colonizers get a moment of sleep without being able to face to torment they allow and fund.
Death to Colonialism! If any of us aren’t free, none of us are free!

I feel like in the midst of all of these daily tragedies we might forget that the people of Gaza are literally not superheroes and they do not possess special powers that we don't. I know Palestinians have been dehumanised but it also feels like sometimes this dehumanisation comes in the form of attributing superpowers to Palestinians.
Palestinians don't want to die.
Just like you, they look forward to weekends, to their morning coffee. They plan birthday parties for their kids and they complain about the laundry. They have a favourite chocolate brand and they hate not being able to get that tune out of their head. They have preferences and arguments. And just like you, they hate the sight of blood.
Palestinians don't want to die.
