Equality is too P.C.
For some,
Who see it differently
Than I, who seeks
To understand
The chaos reigning
In our land.

The truth belies our cherished ties
Forsworn
By hate and shadowed lies
But look into
The heart of things
To find the precious
Hope it brings

The fears in you are my fears too
And Love
We crave, no matter who
Compassion is
The only way
And so for kindness,
This I pray

I love your comments, thoughts, and feedback!

Thanks for visiting!

      Lovely poem :)! Our lands been divided by far too long. It's time for people to unite again into our most driven desire we all so greatly yearn for; Happiness.

      Thank you @droucil. I wonder if it's not so much happiness, but purpose, that we strive so much for...
