I believe in a better world
Where we see color
And we cherish it
Where we see differences
And practice respect.
I hope for a day when we choose
Love
Instead of
Hate.
Such idealized words
(You say)
But if I don’t say them
Who will?
One day you will believe
Because I shout these words with the fiber of my being
And I believe
There can be a better world.
