Do you fear those who are different?
POETRY
2/15/2024
We all walk a different path yet we stand on the same plane
What in the world is a world?
Why fear a place of constant change?
You are you and I am I and for some reason, we can’t see eye to eye
If I took out one of my eyes and traded mine with yours..
How different would I see?
Would my turquoise trees end up drenched in green?
Maybe the feelings I feel would end up bursting at the seams
To think so alike, that doesn’t sound so nice
We’d end up getting nowhere
In a world that was far too similar
too much of the same
I’m glad we're so different
But even though that’s a good thing
Doesn’t mean to be mean
Each life is precious and just because we’re different doesn’t mean we can’t be on the same team
How does it make you feel when someone isn’t the same as you?
Why?
