WE SHARE THIS WORLD

We share this world yet we do not share with each other

How can you tear away a four month old child from its mother?

​

Why do we feel the need to restrict access and build walls?

Without the love and care for each other humanity will surely fall

​

What is the problem with sharing our wonderful land?

Why is it an issue to give someone a much needed hand?

​

What kind of world must we live in if killing is worth billions?

When the number of children without parents is in the millions?

​

We are all made of the same blood, sweat, and tears

Yet we do not try to understand each other’s fears

​

We are obsessed with saving our planet yet we will not save another

Turning them away at the gates; someone’s mother, lover or brother

​

My heart breaks at the thought of the torture people are going through

My head tells me to get involved and help but it’s hard to know what to do

​

No one chooses the terrifying fate that waits for them around every dark corner

I see a life at risk and a soul with no hope but all you see is a faceless foreigner

​

I hope one day we can all live as one, loving one another the way it should always be

I hope one day we can all live in peace, loving life and being beautifully and blissfully free

​

Whether this day comes or not I will never truly know

All I know is what I see, and that we must continue to grow

​

Open up our land and help those who are living in terror

Open up our eyes and our hearts and see that we must be fairer

​

We share this world yet we do not share with each other

How can you tear away a four month old child from its mother?
