In death there’s still no equality
Look at Syria and Turkey,
An earthquake hit and both suffered
Under buildings people were smothered,
Under concrete homes in which they lived
Now ask who received the aid we give,
Turkey being helped by all that can
Syria has much fewer hands,
Syria receives no aid or help at all
What happened to the emergency call?
Are lives and in Syria worth far more less
Children rescued from the rubble but without a breath,
Tears being cried while help is denied
But the international community defies,
Both countries are on their knees
Both countries cry and plead,
This is the worst of all tragedies
But we should be helping both countries equally,
But no one is being saved in Syria like Turkey
Because there is not enough aid and that’s the key,
And so the suffering is beyond belief
But I send my prayers while on my knees,
Though I wish in this case there was greater equality
The tears I shed and that I weep,
Are for the innocent who have lost whole families
We should all be ashamed we left and ignored Syria’s needs.
