People,
A world full of people.
Tall, short, thick, thin.
But who are all of these people?
What goes on in their life every day?
Who helps them when the need help?
What’s their country like?
We all live on the same planet,
Yet, we’re so very different.
If we all have to get up and the morning,
If we all have to breathe,
If we all have to eat food,
If we all have to drink water,
All just to survive,
Why?
Why are we so different?
Why doesn’t anyone have an answer?
Why is there violence?
If we have all felt pain,
At least once in our lives,
Why do we cause others pain?
We know what goes on,
Yet most of the time we do nothing to stop it.
So, why?
Why can’t we all be one nation?
Protect each other,
Love each other.
Were all the same,
But we’re also, so different,
Why?
