There’s just no understanding
no attempt to see beyond
Beliefs blind a fractured mind
Thoughtless remarks
short of the mark…
Lead to broken bonds
Bailed for blindness
a lack of kindness
no questions asked
just condemned
no trail by jury
just outright fury
name calling of the worst kind.
Ask the questions,
don’t condemn
Speak the way
you do to friends
Delve deeper,
try to understand
Out of the darkness
lend a hand
Why so angry?
Why all the hate?
Is fear really your fate?
Shine the light
on their broken hearts
Help re-connect the parts
of a bigger story than the one fed
lead the way out of the darkness
into which they’ve been led.
The path awaits,
and the way is clear
Show them love
when they demonstrate fear
Dressed up in all different guises
anger and hatred among its prizes
Remove the cloak, see what’s beneath
Never naked,
what’s underneath?
A sponge of a child,
repeating the cycle?
A traumatised teen
with broken dreams?
An adult worried for their survival,
a dying soul that needs revival?
There’s just no understanding
no attempt to see beyond…
