Equality

I want to be free, cries deep with in my soul
The world so cold
I see no equality 
Why do labels consume you, and
Hate is your friend as you as you grasp it
And it grooms you
Hispanic, Asian, cacajun and the black people
They should be equal
And be known as just people 
Behold man kind just watch what he can do
He can separate, desecrate, discriminating on any race  
He can look into the eyes of any face 
And erase 
I see no equality
Its bothers me
The worlds at end
Just wait until the father see

Much Love

writing a same theme i appreciated the different opinion. Eyes are deceitful, they only captured what we're going to think and judge. I like your poem, short but meaningful. keep sharing your feeling to the world. (^ __^) peace Mony
