Silence
There's a group of people, living in silence - in the darkenss
Many are aware of their existence
Many are not
Who am I to shine light on them - shine the truth
It makes me sick to the stomach
It makes me cold to the bone
It makes me cry in pain, while I turn my head away
Why must they hide?
Why must they fear?
Why must they live such a life?
Why can't we stop and not discriminate?
After all, they have done no wrong
They are our friends, our family, and our neighbors
They left their old lives and came to thrive next to us
I see no wrong in that, I see greatness
They exchanged a shining life to one full of darkness
Not everyone sees their existence through my eyes
Some discriminate and use their power to afflict danger on them
Some seek the most powerful seat in a nation to make them out to be the worst that a human being can be
I will not stand for this, I ask for all of us to stop and love
To not hate and burn
But to cherish and grow
Grow like I haved
Learn like I haved
Love like I haved
Accept like I haved
