Cri De Coeur

One thing that I know, That I know nothing. We are but cattle, If we don't look deep. Know thyself Or know naught. Difference in hue Disguises the divine spark That we all share. So you are my neighbour And I must love you as myself. Where you suffer, So must I. We are bound together, Though we seem to be apart. Your poverty My impoverishment. To make a better world, Let us learn to know ourselves So we will know the other better.
