Who We Are: We are One
By: Vickram Bachan
Our skin is black our skin is white,
But we are all humans, so why all the spite?
We need to be proud of ourselves and one another,
The skin we are in suits our personality and character.
We are who we are for a very special reason,
We are the way we are because that's what we were given.
We were meant to be the way we are,
The Almighty made each of us an individual star.
Together, the human race makes a wonderful rainbow,
And when looked at from the heavens we shine and glow.
But without peace that rainbow dies with silent woes,
For what racism does to us, nobody will ever know.
We criticize the outside seeing White Black Yellow Brown and more,
And judge without understanding what lies beneath the pores.
Everyone's blood is red; the colour of life and death,
Though our true inner colours haven't been discovered yet.
Hope you all enjoyed that. Stay tuned for more coming soon!
