"Everything or Nothing"
"Everything or Nothing"
Sometimes the world seems far too big,
and one false move will send the walls caving in.
A strong voice can lead the troubles to their end, and an act of courage can lead to belief and hope to start again.
It's a game that must be played but can it every truly be won?
No matter how good or bad it gets, do not despair on words left unsaid or actions left undone.
No matter how long the search did take or how hard contemplation went into thought it's never understood,
how one could heal and hurt in the way that you could.
Underneath it all I am the same as you,
take away the color and could you tell who is who?
Treat me as your equal despite the different challenges that I face, because in the end it's a simple fact that we're all from the same human race.
Black, white, gay, or straight these words only serve as our undoing
There is so much more to us than what these labels are misconstruing.
You don't have to be ashamed or try to suppress, that sometimes others simply know what's best.
A little perspective can do a lot to change the perception
because as much as we are alike our interpretation relies on the different path's that we each have taken.
Do not try to skirt or bottle emotion away allow yourself to feel and embrace the love, happiness, grief, and even pain.
There are aspects of our lives that not everyone has the ability to understand but when injustice is evident we can all learn to lend a helping hand.
Everything or nothing there is no in-between, we have to learn to respect, empathize, and care for our fellow human beings.
