Faces

There was a time when people fought due to the color of skin. In this war, none could ever win. Blood was spilled and fields turned red All kinds of people were lying dead. Looking back on these horrific wars, We learn that we need to see people at their cores. Judging someone at first sight Will only provoke another fight. Differences will rip our world apart If we can’t erase the past and get a new start. A person shouldn’t be ashamed of who they are Because someone kicked dirt and dulled their star. We should raise up others and help them feel strong, It will push everyone towards getting along. If our world breaks because we were fools, Nothing could fix it except the strongest tools. Show love for all and stand tall side-by-side And no one will have to be prepared far a destructive ride. We should have friends of all religions and races And not judge people just by their faces.
