Nation, Says so..

MY NATION asks me

Are you happy to be borne by me?

Are you proud of me?

Or Will you make me Proud?

Have I been gentle enough?

Or agonizingly tough?

Have I created enough jobs  

within my borders?

Has my employment compass

directs in order?

Are there more bridges or walls?

Do I form connections

Or present pitfalls?

Have I shaped more books or weapons?

Grown morality or corruption?

But listen national,

It is you who has made me stable

It is you who has made me tolerant

It is you who sow hate and

It is you who act ignorant

It is you who makes me fearful

Terror ridden and fallacious

It is you who bring in wisdom

It is your ideas obnoxious

You are peace, you are justice

You are development

You are leadership, stability

And revolution

I am a patriot of this planet

It is you who gave birth

To me, YOUR NATION!
