The Power of One

Put on a pedestal of shame because of belief, immeasurable weight drags you down full of grief, Immense pain engulfing your heart, mind and soul, draining ‘til empty, rather than full, When you want to speak out but scared to do so, for the friends that you know now may soon turn to foe, To them you are only one person, maybe less nothing more, But your voice is made to speak up, if not what else for, Doesn’t matter what race nor what age you are, say what you need to for words from the heart nothing can mar, Those on top feel that they are superior to god, when the one’s below only wish to stand beside him, rather than be trampled by others in to sod, Your strength can be measured in the deeds done by you, let those deeds formulate hope that in the darkness shines through, You are not all alone, it only seems so, your performance in life determines how far you go, You can make a difference that will be perceived by some, when the impact you’ve made multiplies in others visions, it will be shown, the power of one.
