Mi Cuba

Location

Mi Cuba

An island paradise

Crystal clear waters

Bright beaches

Swinging palm trees

Nature from all over

 

Mi Cuba

A communistic island

Equality for everyone

Suffering for all

Disheveled houses

Broken streets

Broken hearts

 

Mi Cuba

An island where people are separated

Once moved to America

Only letters and phones will keep them together

 

Mi Cuba

An island where people ride buses like an over packed can of sardines

No public restrooms to use when traveling

No seats on ferries to go to the other island

No electricity

No plumbing

Censorship to think

Censorship to imagine

 

Mi Cuba

A place that needs new hope

A place that needs real freedom

Hope to be restored

Cuba needs a change

Or it will spiral to destruction

 

Mi Cuba

An island paradise

With crystal clear water

Bright beaches

Swinging palm trees

An island in need of hope

An island in need of life
