Ocean of Lies

Society

By Margaux McCarthyPublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

Equality is for what I strive;

Passion is with what I thrive.

It simply takes drive;

We just have to dive

Into this ocean of lies

And purify the water with time.

It's not a task for one

For this battle to be won.

It'll never truly be done,

But we will use our biggest guns—

Unity, equity, and love.

It will take work,

And it will take hurt.

There is no denying it,

But if we keep fighting this

Oppression with our righteousness,

We can be the ones,

The ones who get it done.
