They tell me, Home: is where my grandfather was born, when home, is wherever I feel whole. They tell me, I live where I don’t belong. When who I am, is the sum of what I've seen and heard, and felt and learned from those around me, and those now long gone. They tell me, My  people will not unite, will not grow aware, will not make reform, when hope, hope for a better world, is what I’ve been granted, by the efforts witnessed here. Witnessed at home. They tell me, she will sink, cease to exist. But Jeddah, you are everlasting, deep within our souls.
