Perhaps

Perhaps? Perhaps it is, perhaps it isn’t? Perhaps it’s just what we’ve been given? Perhaps for you it’s so far away? Then why do you think perhaps for some it’s here to stay? Perhaps the grief and pain it brings makes it more like an enemy here, right here within? Perhaps this is our war? The days to come, so far removed from the days before. Perhaps we have to fight to win? No soldiers we are but National Health Service heroes we’ve seen. Perhaps it’s time to face ourselves? We bleed the same, no matter what our coloured skin tells? Perhaps we can find a better way? Perhaps our hearts and minds can lead the way? Perhaps the hate and fear can die? It can for me with no questions why. Perhaps I see you and feel your pain? Perhaps for me you do the same? Perhaps one day I’ll see you there and I’ll approach you free with no distance care? Perhaps you’ll walk right up to me and perhaps as strangers we will smile and hug for humanity? Perhaps?
