It's Only Right

Can the day ever be seen,
    Where we respect differences among us all?
Or must our obedience to an
    Angry God, force a hand to build a wall?

If morality is justly placed, the
    Spread of power must be even and diffused.
Where all are given parity, and the
    Truth will be observed, not refused.


Because when we open our eyes and mind,
    The roots of chaos are sown buried and deep.
While they strangle the harvest of humanity,
    Without a season so it will never sleep.

This issue can be seen globally,
    Traversing time and continents with its reach.
Yet the conclusion has created a divide,
    With a corrupt answer leftover to teach.

And while mankind seeks a lawful remedy,
    With a color spectrum filtered by black and white.
Hope and faith may survive a universal
    Reality, that's forever present between wrong and right.
