tranquility

I dreamt serenity took over the world
Peace has finally invaded nations
Refugee kids were stamped with the pleasure of being citizens of the world…
I dreamt that Somalia has finally found peace within itself…
I dreamt that my people were finally united…
And, I dreamt of Somalis being oblivion to a thing called “tribe.”
I dreamt finally people were more than just being “Muslims.”
I dreamt people have finally found the true meaning of Islam…
I dreamt my heart was in an absolutely state of bliss…
I
Dreamt
Of
Peace
Submission
And
Islam.
