Stand to Fight, Stand to Love

A Poem

By EK HarmannPublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

I will not be told how to live my life.

I will live with the humanity for others.

Equality is the goal of this compromised society.

The corrupt system taking what we once had.

Our cynical leaders, disrupting peace in the world.

Lives being lost over something so simple.

Fights arising over difference of opinion.

No woman is lesser, the man is greater.

No religion is wrong, no religion is right.

No race is detrimental, no race is supreme.

We stand together in respect.

We stand together in peace.

We stand together for humanity.

We stand together for equality.

We lock arms, we lock hearts.

We fight for those with no voice.

We fight together because we are the same.

We fight together because we are human.

We stand to fight and we fight to love.
