color blind
By beamish
When I offer a hand does it matter what skin the color is
If I kneel to pray with you when your soul is broken can you see past my
complexion
You my friend may not even know who I am
But peace be with you through these days of pain
I won't tell you my race or my religion
Instead I'll work to soften the hate that fills our days
In hopes that soon the blood that cries from my eyes over every dead man
found on our streets
Will be replaced with a flower to celebrate our unity in ONE humanity
See the color isn't the issue
The problem is our minds
We hate before we look for love and we drop body's instead of shaking hands
So I say this for all mankind
Please become color blind and find a gray stranger and ask them to join
your race of colorlessness
Let push back against the status quo and leave hate behind in our new time
of people
not
Us and them or black and white
