Assyrian martyr’s poem “Renya w Adhemtha” by Nineb Lamassu.

I wrote this poem as dedication to the immortal spirit of the brave Assyrian fighter, Sennacherib Moshe, who fell as a martyr whilst defending his people against ISIS attacks. Only days prior to his passing he wrote the following on his Facebook account: Everyman shall become a mere memory one day... My only wish is for me to turn into a beautiful memory in your hearts. N. Lamassu
