Why can't we just get along? Us men and women
Why fight?
Why bicker?
Pointing fingers
Blaming whoever
Venom spitting
Fire starting
It's a miracle to be here!
Conscious and thinking
Residents of sentience
Tenants of right now
Our energy should not be wasted in such silly pursuits
Sheathe your swords, my friends
Put your guns on safety
Hate has no use here
Stigma too
We are only put here for a blink
No!
Less than a blink
So abandon pride
Abandon judgement
Let's spend our short attempt
with hands interlinked and a smile on our faces
Isn't that what we were made for?
