A single story tells a single perspective
Sometimes, told with specific objectives.
Acceptance requires an effort to open each fold
To search for a heartfelt truth that’s bold
It takes courage to be respective
To love fully without being subjective
To categorize or ignore is to be cold
Looking away is choosing to fit a poor mold
Black or white, all lives matter, be respective
Make unconditional love a central objective
Every life has a journey to unfold
Be open to all stories and place no other into a set mold
In honor of all individuals who face hardship due to set perspectives they’ve been taught. Open yourselves up to the truth with respectful love. All lives matter, even the grass and trees we pass down the street.
Powerful piece of poetry. True and well constructed.
