How does a country come together
when thousands march and protests grow
with fevered pitch, and violence erupts?
Can anyone predict years from now
what was done that helped unite,
or what was done that divided us more?
It’s not the side you take, nor the camp you’re in,
but to acknowledge another’s point of view
How they see the world from their eyes.
You don’t have to accept what they believe
just because they stand on the opposing side,
and live their life so different from you,
but kindness and love is what we need.
