What If

What if we all accepted one another and did not always judge,
Put aside are differences and stopped holding a grudge,
What if we could show kindness, even when we didn’t agree,
Stop the wars, and detrimental violence, and all live free.
What if we would listen, instead of thinking how the other person was wrong,
Look into the eyes of someone and truly see them as strong,
What if all prejudices melted like the winter snow,
Learned to love one another and finally let the past go,
What if we realized we are all under the same sun,
That no one is better than anyone else, so there is no need to point the gun,
What if we could respect each other for who we are inside,
Walk this journey side by side, and swollow all our pride,
What if?
