"I am right and you are wrong"
-a phrase that should never be uttered.
if you really got the other person's point,
this sentiment, you wouldn't have muttered,
for people are more than muscle and joint
more than a means to an ends
people are just like you, every one
so how about trying to make mends?
Why is forgiveness so unacceptable?
didn't you want it once?
how come their motives are so susceptible?
what makes one's truth over one's
more than the other's, credible?
people need to understand each other
to find the truth they lost
for the only thing lies build is discontent
and they are suffering the effects of the cost
there's a pain you can't circumvent
your heart muscle will soon exhaust:
if you're trying to love someone that you don't even know,
then your stars appear to be crossed
for there's a bond can be built only once you let go
the walls that once divided you
and it doesn't need be a fight even though
the roof over your head is blown through.
please just understand your sister or brother,
'cause peace is something we musn't outgrow
if you'd see what's under the covers
for what it really is,
then we'd finally find our home in one another
this is who we are- we were made for this.
