I’d have been a good daughter,
If I’d have had your love.
I’d have done anything for you,
If I’d have had your love.
I could have endured anything,
If I’d have had your love.
It all would have been okay,
If I’d have had your love.
If I’d have had your love…
…It would have been enough.

No, I’m not a generic “white person”,
And no one should ever be.
We’re all our own people,
So stop stereotyping me.
I’m not a “white person” at all.
I am simply a human being,
And until all understand this,
Racism will always be a thing.
Who cares what you look like.
What are you like inside?
What kind of a soul do you have,
Within this skin we all reside?
All ethnicities…shapes…colors…
We are all the same.
So why can’t we love one another?
Sometimes sight is such a shame!
If we saw no colors…
Then there’d only be a name: Human.

Don’t forget to love,
And don’t forget to feel;
For life moves on forever,
Yet only love is real.
Don’t forget the faces,
And don’t forget that hope,
Lingers in the air,
Beyond each life’s scope.
Don’t forget to touch,
And don’t forget to see,
That the only thing of consequence,
Is the heart’s melody.

Time devours all things,
And life leads but to death,
Yet in your arms a lifetime’s…
Inhaled, in one breath.
Time devours all things,
And we are but one course,
Yet in one kiss, the soul…
Returns to it’s true source.
Time devours all things;
It’s flow is definite.
Ticking on forever…
So we make use of it.
Here.
Now.
Our love is infinite.

Under a cold and somber spell,
We stand two worlds apart;
Yet though the world’s taken my life,
It will never take my heart!
The heart which loved and cared for you.
A heart which felt love’s sting;
Which beat the bitter tides of fate…
Back, for awhile to sing.
We can not go back now,
For life ever moves on;
And we must move on with it.
Cling tightly. Hold on…
To hope and future happiness.
In times of change, to feel,
No matter how hurt we are:
Even broken hearts may heal…
Knowing that love goes on.
—-We take it with us.
