Poem

Because of you whom choose to live
your lives in willful blindness,
whom know inside you’ve failed yet
still expect a world of kindness, 
whom weren’t there to show you care
although you knew it mattered,
well now our whole democracy
has cracked and nearly shattered.

How can it be that those whom choose
to live in willful blindness,
yet somehow they expect to find
the world still filled with kindness, 
that they think they can live their life
expecting all their choices,
and never think the time will come
for them to use their voices?

The rights we think we’re born with 
were never truly ours, 
What’s here today can be snatched away
when the will of the people cowers.
As willful blindness keeps our courage 
neatly tucked away,
It’s hard to watch how everything goes
from bad to worse each day.

The time has come for Americans 
to rise above and see
turning away will only serve
to destroy our democracy. 
Perhaps if we were focused more
on seeking human kindness 
we wouldn’t see these darkened days 
of stubborn willful blindness.
