I listen to all you say
I hear every view expressed,
I hear my heart beat faster
Between every breath
But you lay all blame on gender, colour, Spiritual belief,
In you xenophobic, racist, Sexist hate filled speech
And I have to quell the anger,
Find within my own self inner peace,
Remind myself of my unconditional love
And my self belief,
That everything life is precious be it human or animal
And rather than get in a fight
Rather than quarrel,
I agree to disagree with you
And walk away real calm,
Knowing it is people like you that are causing all the harm.
And though I have so much that I could express,
What would be the use
For it would fall on death ears,
For you won’t see the truth,
That we share a common purpose
In this place that we exist,
We just have to learn to come together
And find some kind of peace,
That we can all learn to share
To find a love than can be reached,
For the sake of this world
And everything that exists,
As well as own humanity.
Via daily prompt: agree to disagree
