One Land

One Land

One dream

One man

One woman

One people

One land

One law

One truth

One bite

One apple

One love

The whole world goes to sleep to dream of such a day 

With calmer waves

And sweeter days 

And a sun with golden rays

Until the dawn comes to give our sweetest dreams away

Beneath a dark fear, sadly we hide

Frail to withstand this veiling slide

Fed with ego and empty pride at hand

With devils we sing and demons, we brand and commend

How soon, how careless we charge forth, and abandon our fruitful land

Forgetting that at the end, one night

Side-by-side, we lay, in regret, old and gray, dressed in white, with souls drifting away like a remorsful kite

Ignorant, arrogant, we rise and fall

Always on the run, we hit the wall, we miss and fall 

For a gray greed

so blind

Has left the heart

so far behind

Fools we are, for love cries absent in the heart

Further and further, each day further apart

Comes tomorrow

lets not waste our land

For love so humble has never such demand

Extend your hand, its time to give

Open your heart

For the land of freedom you’ll surely receive

Lend your journey to a happy start

For one tomorrow you’ll surely depart

Life is short, and life is sweet, give it your best, and your kindest of treat.

May I call you sister?

      I wish that our struggle were as simple as wishes and prayers and hopes for a brighter day- but there are dragons to be slain- only so that princesses like you might continue to bless us. Your work is inspiring. Both my parents were gone by the time I was 18. Some of us find our voice by innocent means- others (of which I am one)- were not so fortunate. You inspire me. Thank you.
