We Cannot Continue Like This
We cannot continue with this hatred for fellow Americans.
Regardless of political party, views and presidency.
The hatred fueled and projected onto others will destroy us.
We must take a strong look at the issues at hand that led us here.
The division is more than I have ever seen and must be bridged.
It is imperative that we tolerate differences, to find a way together.
There have been politicians and media instigating a big divide.
We can only choose now to reach the other side, for our country.
Most everyone wants a safe, lawful, free place to live.
This does not mean bullying, rioting and outright revenge.
Americans have seen enough and had enough, this is true.
It is time for us to take the most positive actions we can take.
Be as honorable as we can and reach out to others with respect.
We must return to core values to stop this spiraling downfall.
Some of the things happening are spinning to leading no-where.
I truly believe it is time to look at why we have reached this place.
Be not what you see in the chaos, but what you truly believe inside.
Take not the lawless actions that have somehow been empowered.
Stand strong for yourself, for others, for our home of this land.
For only in moral strength will we return to a just and free society.
This is the way, because our free will gives us the ticket to do it RIGHT!
We cannot continue like this!
