We are not this moment
We are not this time
Fleeting hours moments seconds of time
So far beyond just you and me
A world of souls all straining just to be
Fragile is Hope yet our world must see
Broken are captives which must be freed
Scales are weighted and justice is bound
Wounds untended casualties compound
Darkness breathes in the absence of light
Conviction to change requires more than might
Violence dispensed must be brought into the light
The war we are fighting goes beyond sight
Justice must be blind for those wrong or right
Time is our ally more precious than might
Simply because we see does not mean we have sight
The cost of conviction requires a seed
We plant with our time for those in need
Clarity of thought at blinding speed
We move towards change as we water that seed
