Watan and Hayah
There are those who have nothing..
And those with everything to give..
At a certain place they meet.. a place of giving..
One day, someone's life went dark
Not because he was overcome with his burdens
but because nobody was there to stand by him
to hold his hand , to fill his life with light... And hope
Hayah, bourn from the essense of life.. 2008
